Re: [css-d] [ADMIN] Hello, my friends, hello

2016-01-04 Thread Erik Visser

Hi Eric,

I'am a member of the list for already quite some years. And i hope the 
list will continue as is. I always got great help from the other 
subscribers. As others also have written, the list is a great place to 
turn to if you have a problem you can't figure out yourself. And indeed 
in other places it is often hard to get real help.


On css-d i always get help/guidance to come to a solution, and also 
explanation to the matter. So the list is very much appreciated by me. 
And even if there are not a  lot of subscribers, the list is still very 
valuable by the people who get help here.


Thank you, Erik Visser

Hi, everyone,

   So apparently the list software died back in October, and none of 
us really noticed until this month.  Or, if people noticed, nobody 
mentioned it until this month.  It took a while to get in touch with 
someone who could get the software restarted, but I'm told it's back 
up.  If you're reading this, then yes, it's back up.
   This hiatus and its lack of observance has led me to wonder about 
the utility of css-discuss, and whether it needs to continue.  There 
are a lot of other venues for discussing CSS these days, and most of 
the reason for this list existing-- to help people figure out how CSS 
worked, and fix problems-- is covered much more compellingly by sites 
like StackOverflow.  The resources that used to support css-d, like 
the public archive and the wiki, have fallen into disuse or disrepair 
over the years.  In general, there's a faded feeling here, at least 
for me.

   Thus, I'm now pondering three courses of action:

   1. Shut down the list.  To all good things, etc.  This obviously 
abandons those who still prize having a mailing list, but that number 
seems very small.  Almost all the discussion in the months leading up 
to the hiatus was conducted between a small number of subscribers.  Of 
course, a new list could be started by someone else.
   2. Hand the list off to someone else, to guide as they see fit.  
This involves the very difficult task of finding someone who's 
interested, and making a good choice.  This is the least appealing of 
the three, honestly, because of the possibility of getting things wrong.
   3. Convert the list from "Practical discussions of CSS and its use" 
to more general discussion about anything CSS-related.  That would 
include theoretical musings, discussion of what CSS should or 
shouldn't be, where it should go in the future, the general theory of 
CSS, and so on.  I'm less inclined to go this route, as there are 
other places to grapple with the deeper issues of CSS (like www-style, 
not to mention blogs and social media).


At this point, perhaps due to pride and ego but perhaps simply due to 
feeling that the time has come, I'm leaning toward option 1. January 
24, 2016, will be the 14th anniversary of the list.  That leaves a 
month to either settle on a different course of action, or else to 
plan a shutdown.
   If anyone has strong feelings that it should be one of the other 
two options, or a fourth option I didn't list, feel free to let me 
know off-list.  I may not be able to respond to every message, but I 
will read them all.  I expect to make a final decision on or before 
January 10, 2016.  Whatever I decide, I'll announce it here.

[css-d] styling a menu button using pseudo elements

2015-05-30 Thread Erik Visser

Hi all,

I've implemented a menu for smaller screens ( 584px and smaller ):

Works quite well. (any comments welcome)

But
Only thing is that i can't get the menu button looking the same on 
Android (4.2.2). and my browsers (safari/firefox/chrome) on mac os x.


That is, using the same css, the white lines inside the menu button do 
not center very nice on both devices.


This styling looks good on android:

.dl-menuwrapper button:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
width: 68%;
height: 6px;
/* background: #fff; */
top: 10px;
left: 16%;
  border-top: 1.250em double #fff;
  border-bottom: .375em solid #fff;
-webkit-box-sizing: content-box;
-moz-box-sizing: content-box;
box-sizing: content-box;
}

And this styling looks good on safari/firefox/chrome (mac os x):

.dl-menuwrapper button:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
width: 68%;
height: 6px;
/* background: #fff; */
top: 10px;
left: 16%;
  border-top: 1.375em double #fff;
  border-bottom: .5em solid #fff;
-webkit-box-sizing: content-box;
-moz-box-sizing: content-box;
box-sizing: content-box;
}

The difference is in the border settings.

css:
http://beta.utrechtsyogacentrum.nl/style/responsivemenu/component.css

page:
http://beta.utrechtsyogacentrum.nl/index.php

On other websites i see that it is possible to get the menu button 
looking the same both on android and desktop browsers.


I am staring to long at this code (and testing different markup and css).

So i'am very curious how i can get them to look the same.

All comments are welcome.

Thanks, Erik


PS Box-shadow does not seem to work well on android. That is not on my 
samsung galaxy with android 4.2.2.

The original table and some smaller versions i made:

Anyone any ideas?

Alternatively i could show / hide different versions of the table based

That should work i guess. Although it might not be the most clever

It should behave from big screen until 480px.
Below 480px additional work has to be done. Thats the next step.

It was intended but not very consistent. And not a good idea, as your 
comment confirms.


So I changed the lay-out. The logo is now at the same spot on every 
width. Only at smaller screen widths (below 980 px) the top-banner 
intentional has less height.

I don't think that http://beta.erikvisser.net/images/header1.jpg should
scale anamorphically as the window changes width; it would be better
(IMHO) if the aspect ratio should remain constant and the viewport onto
it change.



Ok, good point.

This is my fix:
- moved the elephant logo image from the masthead into the top of the 
left column

- gave the logo image: position relative and top -7.5em
- gave the menu box_1: position relative and top -9.5em
- gave the header1.jpg: min-height 7.5rem

Last fix is a little cheat to keep header1.jpg looking nice and also to 
avoid the logo might shove above the masthead in any browser.


Looks good on my machine. That is Mac Os X Lion, using:
Safari 6.1.6
Firefox 38.01.
Chrome 4.3.0.2

Hope this does not give any strange effects in any other platforms and 
browsers or on small screens / mobile browsers.

You do not have to make your page responsive on wide screens, in order
to make it fit narrow screens. I suggest you manipulate the original
design through a series of mediaqueries, to make it work on narrower
screens.

That is: a mobile last approach that may be easier to implement in
cases like yours.



That's also an approach to take into account. Nice name Mobile Last 
:-) Thanks Georg, also for the css.


Thanks all for the comments. Indeed i know that on small screens things 
overlap. That's the challenge for the next step.


What do you think about the current main structure of the site. Is 
suitable for making it mobile?


The current main structure is 3 columns (percentage based) in a wrapper. 
Completed with a header and footer. Main css for the columns:


#wrap{width:100%; height:auto; float:left; margin:1.25rem 0 1rem 0;}
#left{width:20%; height:auto; float:left; margin:0 0 0 0.6rem;}
#mid{width:60%; height:auto; float:left; padding:0 0 0 0.6rem;}
#right{width:20%; height:auto; float:left; margin:0 0 0 0.6rem;}

Or are there particulary problems to expect when taking this setup as a 
base for mobile/small screens?

I am not a native English speaker. (guess yoiu already noticesd)
So to be shure. If i understand you correctly, you are asking: in what 
way do i expect the content to adapt the screen size in a fluid way...

Correct?

This is where i was thinking about. And why i asked for opinions. But i 
should have added the following at once.


The right column is not used. So could even be taken out.
The left column contains the menu.
Middle column contains the content.

My idea for smaller screens:
- hide the left column
- show the menu in the middle column

This way:
- the only visible column on smaller screens is the middle column
- the middle column will take the full screen size
- the content could be presented fluid in the middle column

Does this answer your question? And does this make any sense?

No.  In simpler words, as the widths of the individual columns add to
exactly 100%, it is not at all clear to me when one or more of those
columns might appear /underneath/ another column rather than alongside
(ignoring rounding issues).  Talking about adapting [to] the screen
size is too generic -- I was interested solely in why you have CSS that
would potentially allow the columns to float, yet size them such that it
is not clear in what situations (if any) that floatability might ever be
exploited.


Ah, yes Now i get it. Even overlooked it when you were pointing 
at it


Maybe i experimented with floating columns and later on forgot to take 
the float out. I don't remember. Or maybe becuase of some browser 
issues? Although i have no idea which browser would have problems with 
percentage columns.


Now you pointed at it, it looks strange to me too. Not very clean coded.

In my opinion--yes. CSS is very logical and easy to learn. Learn CSS 
and your site(s) will be far more efficient, and future-proof.



Hi Al,

Thanks for your thoughts. Can you explain what are the specific cons of 
using bootstrap?


It has been a while since i was working on a regular basis on websites. 
But I'am quite familiar with css and html/php/and more.


Point is that at this stage i don't have an overview of which items need 
to be taken care of when developing a responsive website. Were  a 
responsive website stands for: a website that fits all viewport sizes.
Where all viewport sizes might be best defined as all major/most used 
viewport sizes. From smaller mobile devices to bigger screens.


I guess that issues that need to be taken care of contain: menu 
positions and menu-types, viewport size, rearranging text and lay-out, 
resizing (background) images, ...(more)...?
All these issues depend on and/or are related to actual viewport-size of 
the screen that is used.


Since i don't have the overview of these issues that should be taken 
care of, I thought it might be handy (more practical) to take a ready to 
use base/template which already addresses all these issues, and learn 
about these issues from there.


Were i guess this base/template is the result of (lots of) webdevelopers 
that are (or have been) busy converting sites mainly designed for large 
screens to websites that are more mobile friendly (multi viewport 
sizes). This must have been done already so often that there might be 
some good roadmaps and maybe light-weight frameworks/templates including 
the most nescessary elements to achieve a responsive website.


But i'am also glad if you have some good articles or a series of 
articles that breaks down the task of building a responsive website into 
a series of issues that need to be taken care of. Where this could be 
seen as succeeding steps of the issues to address, also a kind of roadmap.


Thanks, Erik

I found a site desinged for different screen sizes. Is this site quite 
well behaving / designed for mobile devices?


http://www.wezenlijk.info


On this site the css is addressing 4 device-type:

@media screen and (max-width: 760px) {
@media screen and (max-width : 960px) {
@media screen and (max-width: 1152px) {
@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio : 1.5), screen and 
(min-device-pixel-ratio : 1.5) {


Will this do for most commonly used mobile devices?
Here in Holland these will be iPads and the majority of mobile phones 
from samsung and apple?


If not, which devices (screen-sizes) should I address too?

Thanks, Erik

[css-d] convert traditional site to mobile friendly site

2015-04-24 Thread Erik Visser

Dear list members,

I have to transform this traditional handwritten html website into a 
mobile friendly website: http://www.utrechtsyogacentrum.nl


The google webmaster tools testing page has two complaints. The site is 
too wide. And links are to close to each other.


Other google information pages suggest to use inline styles. But that is 
against what i know of building websites using css.


So i'am wondering: what is the right approach / solution ..?

I like the idea of having one site and targetting different devices. Is 
this the way to go?


Should i use media queries and css for all kind of screens:
http://www.htmlgoodies.com/html5/css/cutting-edge-device-targeting-with-css3-media-queries.html#fbid=a7t_mgj4iPJ

And depending on the device that is reading the website:
- leaving out images? or exchange them by small size (width / height) 
images?
- changing the orientation of the page depending on the orientaion of 
the device visiting the page?

- for portrait screens: display a top-menu instead of a left-menu
- ... ?

So i like some advice from the masters who already converted or designed 
some website for multiple devices / screensizes.


Is there a good step by step guide somewhere?

All information and ideas are welcome.

Thanks, Erik

PS found the google guide already, but i question if this is the best 
way to go. Is there a robust and simple aproach.

Thanks David, this fixed it for some pages.

But pages with small photos at the bottom of the left column still have 
a long page.

And i think i also found what is causing the long page.

The small photos in the left column are kept together in a div:
div class=foto_colleft vertcalalign

To keep the photos at the bottom of the page, the class .verticalalign 
has this css (file style.css):

.verticalalign {
 position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
 }

When i remove position absolute. Then the page get its normal length.

But then the photos are not at the bottom of the page anymore.

So one solution might be to apply another method for keeping the div 
with small photos at the bottom of the page.

Anybody any idea for an alternative method?

Or is there some other solution to avoud the long pages in Opera?.

Thank you, Erik Visser

[css-d] ie6 and ie7 behave differently

 On the other hand: it doesn't make all that much sense, to me, to use an

 having to resize the images in ems too - one way or another, which will
 lead to some degree of distortion in all browsers.

 
 Do you see this site as an image-presenting site?
 It is a camping ground site.
 To give a good impression of their campground we added a lot of photos

 But stil also a lot of textual information on rates, services, etc.
 
 Besides that.
 
 Ths is not an em-sized layout, or...?
 
 1. The layout is mainly a percentage based layout. Using:
 #col_middle {

 * html #col_middle { display: inline; }

 2. Image dimensions are set using em. See: 
 http://beta.ottermeerhoeve.nl/css/makeup.css
 
 
 All together the site resizes quite good in most browsers. Doesn't it?
 
 Only the fotoboek which is generated with JAlbum brings in different 
 styling.. And that's what i'am try to alter/adapt so it fits in the site

 I always thought that a percentage based layout. And em based image

[css-d] columns shifting after logo margin change

2009-04-28 Thread Erik Visser
My questions is about the logo on this site:
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl

logo css, in makeup.css:

img#logo {
   margin-top:-7px;
}

Everything is ok here in FF3 and IE7


My question is:
how can i lower the logo (so it sits on the black bottom border of the 
div#masthead) in a simple way.

This is what i tried:
I added in makeup.css:

img#logo {
   margin-top:7px;
}

Resulting in:
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/new/index.php

Looks ok in IE7.
But in FF3 the columns shift to the left.



To correct this shift i added a negative margin to the left column. In 
makeup.css:

#leftColumn {
   margin-left:-286px;
}

Resulting in:
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/new2/index.php

Now it lloks ok in FF3.
But (as could be expected) in IE7 the column shifts and becomes invisible.


I tried more corrections to get it to look ok in both FF3 and IE7. But 
before i add correction after correction. I thought: lets ask the list.
This because i think there must be a quite simple solution in the first 
place. So it looks correct i most major browsers (IE6, IE7, FF2, FF3, 
Safari, Opera, ..) But i am afraid i miss it completely.

So my question is: how can i lower the logo (so it sits on the black 
bottom border of the div#masthead) in a simple way.


About the css.
These are the (too much) css files:
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/css/simple.css
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/css/complex.css
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/css/complex_vnav.css
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/css/makeup.css
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/css/theme/theme_dap9.css
http://beta.daploosdrechtseweg.nl/css/makeup.css

I know far to much css files. Has to do with design phase. Where 
multiple color schemes were available to choose from. They will be 
deminished in later phase.

Thanks all, Erik

 Sure. Don't use pixel-sized elements inside em-sized containers - or the
 other way round. Such mixes are bound to break.
 
 

Thanks again. And a sorry also. Because I set out this next question too 
quick and easy.

Yesterday evening it popped up in my head. I remembered that i found 
that the albun software generated tables with inline styles in pixels. 
So the containers don't resize when you make fomnt-size smaller. And 
then off course the lay-out breaks.

So i have to:
- or change the java software that generates the album
- or find a jalbum skin that does not use any inline styles

[css-d] jalbum photobook drops in IE6 after stupid late night changes

Hello,

Yesterday I made some (stupid) late night changes to the jalbum 
photobook at:

http://beta.ottermeerhoeve.nl/fotoboek/fotoboek.php

Everything looked ok in firefox.

But IE6 now the photobook drops down from the layout.
And the button bar of the photobook is far too small (propably related).

I tried all kinds of things this morning. But it did not work.
But i think i overlook the obvious.

Can someone help me out?

If it is of any interest:

[css-d] same css different results

2007-07-04 Thread Erik Visser
Hello,

I have an interesting problem that is bothering me. Two pages using 
quite the same css giving different results.

This css:

#col_middle, #col_left, #col_right {
 padding-bottom: 32767px !important;
 margin-bottom: -32767px !important;
}

Is causing this page in Opera to become very looong:

http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/index.php

CSS:
positioning: http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/style.css
makeup:  http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/makeup.css
menu stuff:  http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/pde.css
For IE:  http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/ie.css


While this page (in base the same layout) is NOT too long:

http://ottermeerhoeve.nl/

CSS:
positioning: http://ottermeerhoeve.nl/css/style.css
makeup:  http://ottermeerhoeve.nl/css/makeup.css
menu stuff:  http://ottermeerhoeve.nl/css/pde.css
For IE:  http://ottermeerhoeve.nl/css/ie.css

Any ideas what causes this difference?
All thoughts are welcome.

Thanks, Erik


PS the valiidator gives 2 errors in the css. this is known and intentional.

[css-d] IE6 problem; gap or extra margin? in header

2007-07-02 Thread Erik Visser
Thought i could figure it out myself. Checked out positioniseverything 
for ie bugs. But can't find it.

In the header there are 2 images. IE7, Firefox and the others display 
them ok. But with IE 6 there's a gap under the images. Tried all sorts 
of adjustments. But the gap won't go.

This is the page and css:

http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/index.php

positioning: http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/style.css
styling: http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/makeup.css
menu:http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/pde.css
menu:http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/menu.css
ie only: http://beta.erikvisser.net/tro/css/ie.css

Css files are not optimal yet. Especially the 2 css files for the menu 
should be cleaned up. Rest is quite ok.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Erik

Another problem is quite a long page in Opera (Mac OSX, Opera 9.02).

 Hey Erik,
 
 The space is probably because CSS sometimes treats images as text  
 with the baseline below, acting as space. To get rid of it you either  
 have to add display: block; to the image or a float: left; to the  
 image

 She did well on my end (xp) in ie/7., opera/9.1, and ff (version 
 whatever it is). In  ie/6.0 at /text-size largest/, the vertical logo 
 disappears and there is no horizontal scroll-bar with which to retrieve it.
 See screen shot: http://chelseacreekstudio.com/ca/cssd/ev.gif.
 

i will loook into that one.
any idea  on why the scrolllbar doesn't appear?
(or maybe better: why the left side is chopped off?)

 
 However, with both of your sites (and this is a personal opinion that is 
 not shared by all on this or any other list), I find sites that require 
 both horizontal and vertical scrolling when the fonts are scaled to be 
 bothersome.
 

Ok, vertical scrolling is hard to avoid. That is, when the amount of 
content rises. With all designs there comes a point where you can't keep 
the content in the browser window. Isn't it?

Then the horizontal scrolling. While keeping the same design, this 
horizontal scrollbar can only be avoided by not using a min-width. Isn't it?
Then it comes up to the design how it keeps up without min-width.

Especially the 24-10reading client could not accept the horizontal menu 
wrapping over 2 lines on smaller browser windows / bigger font sizes.

So withouut brekaing the  design with a horizontal menu bar there isn't 
a way to avoid this horizontal scrollbar. Or...?

Thanks, Erik

 Not just font size but window size. I think every relatively interesting 
 design 
 will have its limits as to how small the window can go before the design 
 breaks up.
 
 Personally I aim to make sure anything I do works on 800x600, but for 
 everyone 
 this will vary.
 
 Erik, the site you highlighted will go down to about 850px (in Firefox 2) 
 before 
 the first link in the navigation bar starts to go off the side of the window. 
 I 
 don't think that anything in the design requires a window this wide.
 
 Everyone's needs vary, but 850px width for such a simple design worries me 
 personally.

I agree with you Daniel. In this case it was the client that came up 
with the basic design. And initially it had even more white space. My 
client said he likes space and designs with lots of room. I don't know 
if i can translate this in understandable English, but he said:
I want to create a certain image. And create a certain athmosphere.

And thus i told him that in most cases (if not an art work) the primary 
  goal of a website is to provide information to the visitor. And 
preferable in way so that the visitor can take that info as easy as 
possible. And that scrolling is very irritating to a lot of people.

So at first i made a small version of his design. But he did not like 
it. It was not breathing the right athmosphere he said. So i expanded 
the design again until he was satisfied.

What can you do if a customer insists?

 I really like the design of the site; it has a nice, open feel that I like.

That's exactly what my cliennt was after. But it takes a lot of space as 
you noticed.

 The same as David noted, in IE6 on xp on my machine, the left side logo
 starts to disappear at text-size 'large'. At text-size 'largest', the logo
 is gone and much of the information (on the home page, at least) also falls
 off the left side and, again as David said, is irretrievable. Screenshot on
 ie6 at text largest:
 http://first-encounter-design.dreamhosters.com/imgs/24-10.jpg 
 

I primarily develop with firefox on linux and mac. So i have to dig into 
that one. And i guess it is something that should be taken care of, 
isn't it?

(to be honest, I thought IE 6 wasn't able to zoom
so i never tested for it
stupid eh?)

 I'd also like to echo what Daniel said about window size. I'm not as averse
 to a horizontal scrollbar as David is but I sometimes think they're an
 inconvenience that I can minimize with a little foresight. When designing a
 site that can be scaled, I design so I won't get a horizontal scrollbar at
 about 800px wide at medium text in IE

David already mentioned the same; thus 800px is a generally accepted 
rule (of the thumb?) for width without scrolling?

 and then, if possible, try to not have
 critical content, i.e., navigation, primary text, fall off if the text is
 zoomed to large. 

That's one of the reasons the home disappeared from the menu bar.

 
 One other comment I have about your site: I know it's a convention, but it
 took me a bit to realize that the way back to the home page was through the
 link on the logo. A home navigation button would have helped.
 

And there quite a couple of places with the link:

- terug naar reading Utrecht -

Which is the  same  as home but then i a  sentence of the Dutch language.

Thanks, Erik

 Only that I personally found it hard to keep track of what was targeting 
 which browser where and in what order. We all have our preferences when 
 it comes to how stylesheets are organized.

ok,  i get it

what i basicly did was:

1. take one true layout [1] as base layout
this provided 1 css file: style.css
all positional css additions are added to style.css

2. for the menu i added Ruthsarian Menus [2] to the layout
this provided a second .css file: menu.css
which contains everything related to the menu

3. then for visual presentation css i added the makeup.css

4. for ie only css: ie.css

So my approach is: take an existing webstandards compliant css layout 
that have proofed itself (till some extend) and take out or add code 
blocks and css (like the ruthsarian menu) to this base layout.

Why did i choose this approach? Since
- i have really limited time
- and i'am not that quick at learning it all by myself

I decided i better use a good base prooven css layout and from there:
- make websites
- read a list like this one
- read some books
- look at tutorials
- etc.

This might be a slow road for really mastering webdevelopment (xhtml / 
css / etc.). But it makes it possible (in the time available to me) to 
better myself while developing websites for customers.

Any thoughts from the gurus on this appproach?

Thanks, Erik

Just an addition to let you know that i just found out that the W3C

My client tried to build a site himself, before he came to me.
Thius he has some knowledge on building a site. And he will maintain the

So it seems that he already changed some code.

some?
not all pages with photos you viewed?
if so, strange...

 Hacking ie/6.0 is understandable. Why are you also feeding those styles

 page from the server with the requested 
 language selected (by specifying it in the body class).

 With javascript enabled, the language toggle 
 simply switches the body class and the displayed language changes 
 immediately.

 Hi Chris,
 
 Here's one example of this technique.  Plug the 
 requested language into the body class:
 
  body class=langEN
 or
  body class=langES

so for every language you have a seperate html file?

[css-d] submenu's not workng in IE6

2006-12-16 Thread Erik Visser
I'am working on this site:

http://beta.24-10reading.nl/

It's got a horizontal menu with submenus (using a .htc file for
whatwever hover), all work like intended. Except...

Then there's also a wordpress installation on this site. I altered the
wordpress template (mainly the header) so it uses the same menu as the
rest of the site.

Now this is working cross platform in all major browsers. Except in IE6.
That is the normal site works like a charm also in IE6. But the blog...

When you hover the menuitems:
- reading
- workshops
- contact
a submenu should open. But in IE6 they dont.

So the error is in the blog part because the rest of the site works ok.

I looked at it for some hours the last days but can't get it to work. It
should be something stupid i miss. (i guess)

Can someone have a look please?

Thanks, Erik

Tried all sorts of paths to the htc file.
And the conditional comment is working in the non blog part of the site.

But thats why i keep thinking i'am overlooking (is this correct

addition to the paths i tested.
i did this by trial and error
changed it from /htc/csshover.htc   (which works for the rest of the site)
to: ../htc/csshover.htc
to: /../htc/csshover.htc
to: ../../htc/csshover.htc
etc.

but that is not the best way of testing/debugging i guess ;-)

so how do you establish the current path, so you can alter the path
right away to the correct one?

The link to the .htc is in the ie.css.

So only one conditional comment is executed?

Francky,

In your version the footer doesn't stick to the botoom of the viewport.
So thats why the problem is solved ;-)

from your css
you can't delete: html, body { height: 100%; }

as it is part of footerAltStick:

 The dotted outline is that browser's way to show selected link, and
 you should rather not try to override such browser-specific styles.
 
 The '#nav {overflow: hidden;' I posted earlier keeps the border on

 dotted. That's how your updated page behaves also, and I think you
 should leave it like that.
 
 Of course, the addition of...
 #nav li {overflow: hidden;}

Thanks, especially Gunlaug and Franky, for the thorough testing.

Now i put up further developed version of the site.
(Franky, your latest addition/change is not yet included)

I have 2 specififc questions.

-- 1. -- Padding or margin?
To lower the text in the middle column (#col_middle) i used: margin-top:
6em; The same for the right column.
I also could have used padding.

Wich one is better margin or padding? And why?
Or is the answer: depends..
If so, in which cirumstances do you use padding and in which margin?

-- 2. -- About the horizontal menu. Propabilly quite simple, but i
struggled for quite a while and did not find a solution.

The the colored horizontal menu's left and right zone are white. But the
left white part should be blue. So i gave .hnav a blue background and
tried all sorts of things. But it still keeps comin up as white.

The css for the navigation is in a seperate stylesheet nav.css.
The css for the containing block (#header) is in style.css.

http://beta.erikvisser.net/24-10/css/style.css

I want the vertical text (actually an image): 24-10 READING
to stay in place when the visitor does a text zoom (in or out).

In other words the N in READING sits just on top of the border-bottom
of #header (grey background). And it should stay there when the text
zoom is used.

I used em for image size and for the heigth of #header.

What am i doing wrong?

[css-d] 2 columns with borders plus a footer that sticks to the bottom of the viewport

2006-05-13 Thread Erik Visser
What i'am trying to achieve is:

- a 2 columns layout with vertical borders
where the 2 columns stretch to the bottom of the viewport
(even when both columns only have one or 2 lines of text)

- combined with a footer that sticks to the bottom of the viewport

i started almost a half year ago
and i thought this wouldn't be too difficult, but it turned out to be
not that easy at all, t.i. if you want it to work accross browsers
due to circumstances, i had to stop my attempts a couple of months ago
this is how far i came then:

http://beta.erikvisser.net/bart/old/

(css doesn't validate because of an ie hack: word-wrap)

i understood that this mockup is unstable
so i try to resolve this problem

i found this:
http://limpid.nl/lab/css/fixed/footer

and combined it with this:
http://www.fu2k.org/alex/css/onetruelayout/example/interactive?order=2-1width=50-49.5equal_height=1

Resulting in getting almost what i want:
http://beta.erikvisser.net/bart/new/1/

The only thing it does not yet do is:
both columns stretching down to the bottom of the viewport even if they
each only have a few lines of text
you can see this the best when you zoom-out quite a bit

before fixing this short coming i like your opinions

My questions are:
- is new this a better approach compared with the original approach as

[css-d] columns wont stretch down to the bottom of page

2005-12-12 Thread Erik Visser
I'am makinjg a lay-out:

http://beta.bartbleijerveld.nl/2t5050/
http://beta.bartbleijerveld.nl/2t5050/css/skidoo_too.css

What i'am trying to accomplisg
Is that the columns stretch down to the bottom of the page. Regardles if
there's content or not.

I tried all sorts of combinations with height 100% and min-height 100%.
But this doesn't seem to meke any difference.
The pageWrapper stretches down. But I need the columns to stretch down.
And they do not.

Maybe i'am overlooking something?
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Erik

(Also another 2 column template with both columns streching down to the
bottom of the page/viewport (even if there's no cotent) and a footer
below these columns is welcome.)

The red and the blue are the columns. I need them to stretch down
because I want to use the borders.

Basically this is what i want:

http://www.bartbleijerveld.nl/

The idea of the vertical borders is a analogy with an open book.

who do ok?
- Windows XP Firefox 1.07
- Windows XP Mozilla 1.7.12
- Windows XP Opera 8.5
- Linux Mozilla 1.7.8
- Linux Opera 8.5
- Mac IE 5.2

but.
the left column is completely white on:
- Mac Safari 1.3
- IE 6

So if someone knows a fix for these browsers. It is very welcome indeed.

thanks Erik

It is a little different:
- Mac Safari 1.3 = links are not clickable
- IE 6 = the left column is completely white on

Your footer script or whatever crashes IE when the window is
diagonally resized to 25%.
 
 That tendency to crash will be solved if the correct wrapper get a
 'hasLayout' trigger. That will also make the lost column visible.


 I figured that out the last time that design was around, but I didn't
 spend time on finding the correct element for that trigger, because the
 layout looked a mess, with even messier css, back then.
 

Well it is far better now.
The index.html on

http://www.bartbleijerveld.nl/

there's almost nothing in it.

 The link to article on 'Layout' was posted then, along with what's
 explained above.
 

yes, i read that, but i don't know how to know which element needs
layout. An it has lots and lots of info. It gets me dazzling.
How do I know / examine which element to give layout?

 As /you/ know, adding 'hasLayout' triggers may have pretty nasty
 side-effects if not done properly and selectively. Not something we
 should do to a weak layout.
 Hopefully the layout/css is better now - don't have time to check.
 

i tried all kinds of additions tio the stylesheet based on the article,
but no luck yet. Columns get shorter but no visible content.

Thanks, Erik
