[css-d] Old IE6 Problem again

2009-04-21 Thread Nic Pulford
Hi,

 

Working on a site and just got to test out in IE 6 and run into a problem
that looks like the empty div problem but I cannot spot one.

 

Here is the page http://www.leadersmith.org.uk/tnbda/about.htm the thing
that does wrong is the Case Studies list in the bottom of the left column.
When I use full screen it had no problem, but in a smaller window where the
whole page does not fit the case study does not show until you scroll to the
bottom right and then hover over the Case Study area.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Nic

[css-d] Css Problem with IE

2009-03-12 Thread Nic Pulford
Hi Guys,

 

I've been struggling with an IE problem. See the following
http://www.leadersmith.org.uk/gt/test3.htm its extracted from a site I'm
working on. The last member has the name missing (its Member). Its there in
the html but is not showing. If I remove the background color I can then see
all the names, but I need the background white. 

 

Works fine in Opera and FF. Fails in IE 6 and IE 7.

 

Any Ideas.

 

Regards

Nic

Hi Els,

The problem was the nbsp;. And yes all those id's where all wrong. It was a
once off originally forgot to change it when I reused them. 

I use and empty clear all over the place I had better search for that style
use.

Thanks,

Given your prompt replies I should have asked earlier, however it might help
embed the learning.

Good old peek-a-boo, caused by clearing styles.
If you add a nbsp; inside the last div class=clear/div, the 
problem is gone in IE7.
This might just be an unnecessary hack though, see below.

Can't test in IE6 really, as in my version it doesn't even show any of 
the names - my version is JavaScript-cripled, could have something to 
do with that.

Could also be due to errors in the code, as you have 4 divs, each with 
id=userBox, and also 4 with id=userboxbuttons.
You can't have multple IDs with the same name on one page. Best to 
change those IDs to classes, so they can be reused on the page.

[css-d] Site Check.

2008-10-28 Thread Nic Pulford
Hi All,

 

Just release a site that I thought was fully tested, but someone complained
that the did not get a complete page load. They got no banner image and none
of the menu links acted as a link. They are not terribly IT literate but
could at least tell me they were using IE7. Any ideas?

 

The pages have the pair of chars identifying the file as Unicode, code that
be it?

 

The site is www.lasadev.com http://www.lasadev.com/  

 

Any help appreciated.

Hi 

Thanks for5 the feed back, I'll work on the jumping I use Dojo I guess it
trying to do too much or not using the shrunk version. I was aware of the
UTF-8 characters at the from, I'll sort that. Surprised about the version of
XHTML as all main pages come from one template in Expression Web. I'll sort
that.

I now suspect that the person who has the problem has a problem with the PC.
It does not seem to display Gif's and when asked to look at the source, IE
could not find Notebook.

Thanks again,

All pages loaded the banner image and the links seemed to work on this 
end in XP IE/6 and IE/7 (although the jumping on link click is a little 
nerve wracking).
Your editor (Dreamweaver?) has to be configured not add the byte-order 
mark (BOM) to your stylesheet; and html, javacript, or php documents.
Some of your pages have an XHTML 1.0 Transitional doctype: others have 
an XHTML 1.1 doctype. XHTML 1.0 Strict' may be a more suitable doctype 
for all of your pages.

Yes the font changes with screen size. The idea is to compensate for the
different screen sizes, but left it as browser window size. I(t does have a
min and max though.

I guess its my old age on my screen on some sites I really struggle to read
them, so this me compensating.

Re: [css-d] Fixed div and Anchors

2008-06-22 Thread Nic Pulford
Hi Georg,

That was helpful. Sharing my problem I'm working on a large existing site,
200+ pages, which was put together by the owners. I'm doing some style
changes without changing page content.

Each page has about 4 anchors and being lazy I do not want to edit each one
and make the changes with purely style changes. I know what I have to do,
due to lack of consistency of the pages I have no choice but to edit each
page. At least they will be consistent.

Thanks for the help.

IE6 treats anchors like that no matter how they're styled, IIRC.
In the old days I used to put in a no-breaking space to solve that
problem, and control the anchor's visual size and effects on its
surroundings with 'overflow: hidden'.

 Any ideas?

Maybe ... if I get to see the actual layout that needs them.

Re: [css-d] Fixed div and Anchors

2008-06-21 Thread Nic Pulford
Hi Georg,

It took some working out as it does not work with an anchor, you need a div
Then if the height of the header is 50px then the div style should be
margin-top: -50px; height: 50px; width: 1px; it then goes fine for right at
the top. By increasing both values you can bring the anchor point down a bit
which is good.

Thanks for that.

I've solved the problem in one particular case [on CSS-D] by styling the
anchor with an invisible top-extension - 1px wide and as tall as the
fixed header + the part you want to see. That'll let the browsers align
the anchor at the top and keep the relevant content down where it's visible.
I can probably dig up my local demo-case again (one day) if necessary,
but it shouldn't be too hard to style an in-page anchor to achieve such
an offset effect.

(I prefer fixed footers and sidebars myself, so I don't run into the
problem.)

It does work with an anchor if the display property is set correctly.
Both 'display: block' and 'display: inline-block' will make an anchor
controllable.

Try this...

#item4 {display: inline-block; padding-top: 100px!important; width: 10px; }

a id=item4 testing /a

...and you'll get the desired effect in all supporting browsers.
Add offset that suits the actual layout.

If you suddenly stop receiving list mail, do not post a test 
message. Either one of two things has happened: your account was 
disabled for bounces, or the list itself is down. You can check the 
first case by logging into your account and looking around-there will 
be big red-on-yellow text if your account has been disabled. In the 
second case, you'll do no good by posting, and look foolish when the 
list does come back up.

If it's taking a long time for your post to show up, wait. When 
traffic flows are heavy and the server gets overtaxed, it can be a 
few hours before your message gets processed and sent out to 
everyone. On the other hand, if you can see from the timestamps that 
people who posted after you have had their messages go out, something 
else may be wrong. Wait a while longer, and then contact the list 
administrators. Do not post a test message to the list. It will 
either have no effect, or make you look foolish.



This has been your regularly scheduled Make sure you've read the 
list policies before posting message.

Re: [css-d] Firefox problem with menu's

2007-06-12 Thread Nic Pulford
Ok I found the problem it was all to do with the resizing and the fact that
the header had a fixed height and overlaid the Menu. Set height to auto and
the problem went away.

Not sure why you think I should be using XHTML as extension, browsers should
be using the DOCTYPE to work out what to do not the extension. What about my
PHP site's.

All the pop-up blockers I have in my browsers allow it. It is something to
do with on and off site. I use Opera as my main browser.

I'm rethinking my resizing, it is necessary. Most site I find I cannot read
at my screen resolution and I use Opera's zoom all the time (it helps to
have a mouse with zoom buttons). But as we roll out more web 2.0 stuff
JavaScript is essential. 

The default font-size works OK fine in 800x600 screens, maybe I should wake
up to the fact that these days the minimum is 1024x768.

Thanks for the feed back.

Nic

I get the popup, too! It looks like your problem is local to your
test setup.  :\

There are some problems that I do see, however:

- If JavaScript is disabled, I get a font size of 8px. That's 
equivalent to a point size of 4pt on my laptop. Almost invisible.

- The popup text displays at 10px - 6pt equivalent here.
That's a bit small for comfort, especially on a complete article.

- You have a file name suffix of .htm so, absent some clever server-
side tricks, browsers see HTML. But your DOCTYPE is XHTML 1.1
which is intended to be displayed as XHTML only. I suggest using a 
file name suffix of .xhtml[1] or use XHTML 1.0.

- I'd also suggest using regular links in place of a popup. With the
increasing popularity of popup blockers, visitors are likely to have
problems with accessing the articles.


 IE and Opera are OK.

But Opera has a built-in popup blocker. The Google toolbar adds
one to IE.

I am also getting the same teensy text with JS turned off.
(FWIW - I usually turn off JS when visiting sites unknown.)

[1] But note that IE (alone) can't handle such files.

Cordially,
David

Probably what would be optimal with CSS is to have different designs and
different style sheets for various common visual impairments. What would
be great is if it were standardized and so people with certain
disabilities would automatically be served up their style sheet based on
their browser settings. Then Web designers would create a normal.css,
largetype.css, protan.css, deuteran.css, and a Tritan.css.
But this would require consensus among designers, CSS world, and the
browsers.

I've never understood the sense of that criterion, e.g. the page 
should survive two [or three] font size enlargements.  Doesn't that 
depend entirely on what size the smallest font on the page is?

What I don't know is if there's any kind of a minimum font size that 
we should ensure our readers can achieve.  I doubt that there is one, 
given the variation in vision impairments, but I'll be curious to 
know what others think.

http://www.lasadev.com/NewLasa/

 

I have looked at IE 7.0 Opera and Firefox on PC's  the Mac is where it needs
checking. Sorry it has a lot of java in it, it is supposed to change size as
you reduce screen size. It does not go down to PDA screen size though.

[css-d] IE problem Negative Margin

2007-01-09 Thread Nic Pulford
First time did not seem to get through, I must remember to use the right
email account.

 

 

I have a test page http://gamma.hostaga.com/~nic/Newspapers/Test3.htm which
works fine (acceptably) in most browsers but not IE, in IE 7 the first
character of the text disappears. In IE 6 you get and extra line. By the way
I do not expect the 'first-child' to work in IE 6. It is designed to be best
in FF 2.

 

 

Any suggestions.

Nic

[css-d] Firefox, fist-letter line-height

2007-01-05 Thread Nic Pulford
I am trying to do a FF drop capital. Containing the first letter in a span
works but I would prefer a p:first-letter approach. I have seen some
discussion on this before but I did not find a solution. 

 

The issue is that FF seems to ignore line-height when in a first-letter.

 

Is there a solution?

 

For those interested this is the IE solution

 

p.storyIE{

 border-top: 1px solid #C0C0C0;

 margin-top: 0px;

 padding-left: 200px;

}

p.storyIE:first-letter {

float: left;

font-size: 2.73em;

height:.6em;

line-height:.88em; 

margin-top:4px; 

margin-right:1px;

}

[css-d] Fixed header and Anchors

2006-12-11 Thread Nic Pulford
Hi,

 

Just signed up to see if I could find a neat solution to using anchors in a
fixed header design in IE. The headers and scrolling work fine I've been
using the technique for some time, but I now have a situation where within a
very long page I need anchors. All the solutions for making the page scroll
to the right visible point I've tried do not work in IE 6.

 

I have done loads of searches on the web include your archive here and find
descriptions of the problem but have so far not found a working solution.
Can I conclude there is no solution, other than putting the anchor in the
wrong place, and that doesn't work if you are using a fluid design?

 

Help please, even to just stop me searching for a solution.

 

Nic
