[css-d] help with positioning

2012-12-07 Thread Chris Kavinsky
I'm working on a new site where I used relative positioning to arrange the
logo and nav horizontally. Consequently, there was a huge gap between the
site header area and the content area because of the repositioning of the
logo, so I moved the content up to fill the space (top:-115px).
There's a graphic at the bottom of the content area (airplane shadow)
that's supposed to sit atop the footer area. But due to the relative
positioning, there's 115px of gap between where it sits and the footer
area. Any suggestions on removing that space without wrapping the footer in
another div with a background color and repositioning it -115px? I'm trying
to not use another div wrapper if I don't have to.

Here's the site in progress:

[css-d] IE head scratcher

2012-12-07 Thread Rob Emenecker
Hi all,

I've got a style issue that is proving to be a real head scratcher for me.

URL:
http://pmibaltimore.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=81&Item
id=149

For the last row of cells in the table on the page, I want 8 pixels of
bottom padding. For current browsers I am target the last-child pseudo-class
and it works just fine. For Internet Exploder 7, I added a class of
"lastrow" to the last TR which works just fine for IE7. So now it works just
fine in IE7 and IE9, yet in IE8 no padding appears. ?!?!?!?!

Clarification: I am using IE9 to test this and setting the browser and
document mode in the Developer Tools to simulate IE7 and IE8. 

I cannot figure out why the style is not applying in IE8. I see nothing
overriding the declared pseudoclass or hard-coded class.

Anyone have any idea?

Aha, that would explain what I was seeing.  Thank you for looking into it!

Best of luck to you all.
