Re: [css-d] list problem - undefined

2007-01-03 Thread Admin at AK
 Dear people,

 I am new to this list, having just started my webdesign activities again. 

 I have a small problem which I hope is very easy to solve. On a webpage
 I want to have a piece of text with in between a few lists. Now, with my
 current design and stylesheet make-up, I have the lists with items floating 
 between the text.

 Could anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong? Which piece of code is 
 missing here?

I am not absolutely certain what you regard as wrong...
...but...

I see the first list is going to be a navigation list? (id=navlist)?

You have opened the UL tag twice with a different class in each.

Instead: give the UL the id=navlist:

ul id=navlist

and create a style for that:

#navlist li{
etc:whatever;
}

Then leave other lists as the default adn style them as:

ul{
etc:whatever;
}

Does that help?

Re: [css-d] Site check and help please

 Hi all

 Could I ask you guys to help me out and have a look at my site for me, 
 especially in IE 6 and 7.

 When I made the template all was fine, but since I have added content, 
 the right navigation div sits outside the page and I am unable to find 
 the problem.

Don't seee a problem here in FF 1.5.0.7
No prob in IE7 except underline and date are too high and are behind bottom
mof house.

A graphic mssing from near 'No comments' ???

 Everything works perfectly in firefox for windows and linux.

 If you view in firefox then IE you will be able to see the glaring 
 problems.

Nothing glaring at me ! :-))

 Hi

 That is very weird. on my computers, linux and windows, I see some 
 glaring errors between firefox and IE.

 I have uploaded 3 screen shots. 1 is how it should and does look in 
 firefox all browsers and platforms and the other 2 demonstrate the 
 errors that I see. they can be found here

 http://www.soddengecko.com/mysite_screens

The how it should look shot is how it looks to me in both Windows IE7 and
windows FF with a
couple of minor oddities but everything's in te right place.

Re: [css-d] 2 spacing questions in IE

2006-09-19 Thread Admin at AK
 (1) I'm trying to eliminate the white space between the masthead graphic and
 the blue drop down menu bar under it.  The top nav is 93px high, and I start
 the blue nav bar at 94

Try setting image to be:

display:block;
or
display:inline-block;

one of those should do it

See

 (2) I'm wondering why the leading is not consistent in the quote from the
 WSJ - the first line squishes the lines together more.

Its fine in FF but IE is uneven.

First: tidy up the source code removing all the unwanted spaces.

Second: put at least one of the graphics as a backgfround iamge to the
paragraph.

Third: See:

[css-d] Simulating Safari gamma on a PC

2006-08-02 Thread Admin at AK
I need to check which designs I have made for the PNG gamma problem...

i.e: opaque (non-transparent) PNGs not matching the same #RRGGBB when set
as CSS background colour.

I don't have a Mac and don't have easy access to one.

Does anyone know of a way I can persuade a PC browser to behave in the same
way?

[css-d] Link text jumps to single line in IE

2006-07-28 Thread Admin at AK
Please look at:

http://www.annerykiln.co.uk/newak/datamanagement.html

Load it in IE

Locate the line that contains the link that says:

quote
See one at Cwmcroiddur here...
/quote

and set browser width so that the link text is split over two lines
(end of one to beginning of next)

Then hover over the link text (don't click)

For me, as soon as it is hovered over, the link becomes one line extending
beyond the visual right margin of the rest of the text.

It's stumped me!

Anyone any thoughts?

Have since investigated methodically and discovered that:

a:hover{
text-decoration:none;
color: #b44;
/*border-bottom:1px solid #b44;*/
}

commenting out the border-bottom on the hover stops the behaviour.

But why? And what if I want the border to change?

[css-d] Left floated div causes 2 or 3 pix shift of text in IE

2006-02-20 Thread Admin at AK
I know this has a way round it but I cannot remember where I saw it and I
can't get the keywords right to find it anywhere.

There's a content div with a left-margin of 150pix.

There's a floated left div of wifht 125px within that conten t div.

In IE (not in FF) the text in the content div is shifted to the right 2 or
3px until it is below the bottom of the left floated div.

The effect is as if there were an extra bit of margin on the right of the
floated div.

Can aomeone point me at the page, or a page, where the way round this is
dealt with.

Thanks

[css-d] Float wrapping with unknown div/img heights

2006-02-15 Thread Admin at AK
I have a series of divs which I want to float wrap. However, the height of
each div is variable and unknown (dynamically generated).

When the series of floating divs wrap, a deeper div will cause the next div
to align its left edge with the right edge of the preceding div.

If all divs were same height and known, then the series of divs would float
in liquid fashion in response to the viewport width.

Is there a way of forcing the divs, no matter what the heights of preceding
divs, to float to the left of their container?
