Re: [css-d] base href and CSS

2008-10-27 Thread Alex Cole
Not all browsers apply base to linked CSS files so it's best to just not bother 
using it.

 css-d@lists.css-discuss.org Subject: [css-d] base href and CSS  I am 
 having trouble with using the tag  base href= / in my html and it not 
 being translated into my CSS document. I have declared -   base 
 href=http://www.foo.com/bar/; /  in my html head (and above the CSS 
 declaration). The physical location of the CSS file is 
 /assets/css/styles.css  In my CSS file, I have element styles like this-- 
  background: url(/images/foo.gif); /* this doesn't work */ background: 
 url(images/foo.gif); /* nor does this */  If I manually change the above 
 path to ../../images/foo.gif then it works fine, but shouldn't the CSS file 
 be using the base href I declared?  Thanks,  Marty Martin

Re: [css-d] Odd Jumping Behavior on Hover - IE Only of Course

2008-10-20 Thread Alex Cole
Hi Chris,
 
Could you possibly be more accurate under what conditions this happens?  I just 
checked with IE6 and IE8 (as well as FF and Opera) and none of them seem to 
display anything like the behaviour you are describing.

 IE Only of Course  On these pages:

 http://www.springfieldmo.gov/newSite/sfd/galleries/photo1/pages/BobCumley-1.html
   In IE as soon as I over over any of the links (photo thumbnails or text) 
 in the content area, the content all shifts left several pixels, but doesn't 
 shift back when the cursor leaves the link. There isn't a hover action that 
 should be triggering this.  On the individual photo pages (second link 
 above) it's even worse. The mouseover a link makes the photo shift a bit, 
 but even more radically, the next arrow button jumps to the left toward 
 the previous button. Just resizing the page will make it go back right, 
 but hovering again brings about the jumping action.  Anyone seen this kind 
 of thing before?  Chris A. City of Springfield, MO Web Coordinator

[css-d] IE absolute and relative height problem

2008-10-19 Thread Alex Cole
Hi.
 
This seems to be the opposite to what almost everyone else everywhere wants to 
know, I've searched all over before coming here and couldn't find anything on 
it.  I don't know if I was just looking in the wrong place or didn't know how 
to correctly and concisely describe the problem in a search engine but anyway, 
any pointers on the matter would be helpful.
 
I have a div set as 200px x 200px with another div inside it with height 100% 
and width 100%.  The inner div has overflow:hidden and content far longer than 
the specified 200px height.  In FF, Opera, Chrome and Safari this displays 
exactly as I would expect with the inner content getting cut off at the 200px 
line, however in IE, no matter what I try, it seems to stretch the parent div 
to as big as the contents.  There is a very basic demo of the problem here: 
http://www.y-less.com/yavascript/ietest.html
 
If anyone knows about the solution to this problem your help would be much 
appreciated, I find it hard to believe from the number of results that this is 
an uncommon problem.
 
Thanks in advance
