Did you know you could do that with php?

Here's an example:

http://webbytedd.com/b/color-rows/

The page should have a .php suffix -- or -- a htaccess file that calls the php 
interpreter to work on html file.

Cheers,

Re: [css-d] Vertical Space Grudge Match: br vs css

2007-05-22 Thread Blake Haswell

 Update: after posting that, I saw someone else mention song lyrics or
 poetry. Being a writer of both, all I can say is - that each line is
 easily handled as a separate paragraph, with CSS controlling line
 spacing and left/right margins.

But each line is *not* a paragraph. Each line is a line of a stanza
(in my mind, marked up pretty appropriately with the p tag). Or, in
other words, and the end of each line is a line-break.

I think there are only two really appropriate ways to mark-up poetry.
Using pre tags, or using paragraphs to mark-up the stanza's and the
br tag to show line-breaks. Possibly using an OL to mark it up as an
ordered list, but that's only an option if you need to have the line
numbers written, and even then I think it's pretty messy.

Re: [css-d] Vertical Space Grudge Match: br vs css

2007-05-21 Thread Blake Haswell
br and br / have
 no semantic value.  Those are presentational markup that should never
 have been in HTML.

I disagree. In terms of song lyrics, poetry, and sometimes even
mailing addresses I generally think that br is a perfectly
acceptable solution that *does* have semantic value and fulfils the
requirements as well as or better than pre or other available
solutions.

Re: [css-d] page loading in 2 visible steps

2007-05-07 Thread Blake Haswell
 The first step can display for as long as a second or two. The sylesheet is
 @import. Is this something I need to tweak or do they?

This is something you can fix. It is known as the Flash of Unstyled
Content (FOUC). You can find out more about it at
http://www.bluerobot.com/web/css/fouc.asp/.

Basically the easiest solution is to scrap the @import and use LINK
elements to reference your stylesheets.

Have you tried using absolute positioning? Floats have a nasty habit
of breaking in IE.

Something like this:

div id=header/div
div id=container
div id=nav/div
div id=content/div
/div
div id=footer/div

#container {
position: relative; // position hook for #nav
}

#nav {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 25%;
}

#content {
padding-left: 25%; // width of #nav
}

 Blake,

 Seems to prevent pushing the #content div below the #navigation div, but it 
 still allows overlap. Anyway to get around this?

Umm... Try word-wrap: break-word; ... It's not supported in Firefox
yet, but I think it's supported in IE and in Safari. I haven't done
any testing with it, though, so your mileage may vary.

Other than that, maybe you could throw overflow: auto; on the #content
div, but it's not exactly pretty.

 I'm looking for the best way to do this (HTML+CSS), to work with

This should work, and the code is about as minimal as it can be I
guess. This is just the bare bones, and obviously you can go ahead and
apply any colours or styles that you want.

HTML:
div
h4Section Heading Goes Here/h4
ul
li
h5Title Goes Here/h5
em21 Apr/em
pLorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consehellip;/p
/li
/ul
/div

CSS:
div {
width: 31em;
margin: 1em;
}

ul {
list-style: none;
}

li {
position: relative; /* This is a positioning hook for the EM element */
padding-left: 3em; /* Width of EM element + whatever space you want
around it */
}

em {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 2em;
}

[css-d] Two Problems – IE6 and Opera 8

2006-09-16 Thread Blake Haswell
The page I'm talking about can be found here:
http://teamredux.com/oup/index.htm
The CSS file can be found here: http://teamredux.com/oup/css/screen.css

The first, and most pressing problem I am having is that IE6 is creating
margins in-between list items in the Latest Newsletter Articles lists.

My second problem is that in Opera the list items in my nav bar are aligning
in the middle, vertically, when they should be butting against the bottom
like they do in Firefox and IE.

Check the site out in Firefox to see how it should be looking.

Thanks for your help,
Blake.

Hi Micky,

Is this http://designbyfire.com/ what you were thinking of? I also
think it is an interesting idea, but it all fails pretty horribly in
IE, so that almost destroys all merit of its use on anything for
clients. :-(

I have seen some other examples, but can't think of the links.

Re: [css-d] How do you make columns reach the bottom?

2006-07-09 Thread Blake Haswell
On 7/9/06, Tammy Grossbauer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 I'm trying to make a column background color go all the way to the footer
 without content filling the div.
 This is the solution I have found multiple times on the internet:

 background: #003399 url(images/blue.jpg) repeat-y;

 Now this should be working, but isn't. I've tried it inside of a float and
 an absolute positioned div. I've tried a square 5x5 pixel image and one that
 is the width of the column (159px). The image doesn't seem to want to go to
 the bottom.
 Does anyone know what is wrong with this or maybe have a different solution?

I think the problem with your code is that you have applied that to
the DIV that you want the background to fill. What you want to do is
apply that to the #container DIV, and then make sure it aligns with
the column that you want it to.

e.g.

The HTML:

div id=container
  div id=left
...
  /div
  div id=right
...
  /div
/div

And then, the CSS:

#container { width: 500px; background: url(/images/blue.gif) right top
repeat-y; }
#left { width: 350px; float: left; }
#right { width: 150px; float: left; }

I hope that solves the problem.

 my guess would be that your image is no longer referenced correctly.
 make sure the url in your css is relative to the css file's location.


I agree, this is the most likely problem. If the directory looks like this:

--[-]my webpage
[-]css
--stylesheet.css
[-]images
--orangedot.gif

Simply change your CSS to:

ul.orange-bullet {
list-style-image: url(../images/orangedot.gif);
}

This should solve your problem.
