Alternatively, post your question on doctype.com :)

[css-d] Doctype.com - Q&A site for designers

2009-08-18 Thread Paul Farnell
Hello everyone,

Last week I launched a question and answer site for web designers,  
that I thought might interest people here: http://doctype.com

When you ask a web design question, you can choose to have cross- 
browser screenshots generated automatically for any browser. Doctype  
also archives your HTML and CSS code. These two things combined should  
make it easier to solve people's CSS problems, I hope.

Here's a good example of a question, together with its screenshots and  
CSS: http://doctype.com/2jZ

Whilst there's certainly some overlap with css-discuss, I hope that  
Doctype will, in time, become a useful complement to this list.

I'd be delighted to hear any feedback or suggestions you may have. I  
hope that some of you will join me over on Doctype!

Cheers,

Paul

Re: [css-d] Height 100%

Hi Trevor. For IE6 you can simply specify the height as 535px. It'll  
auto-expand to be larger than that if the content requires it.

However, make sure you specify the height in a conditional comment (or  
using an IE hack), since other browsers *will* obey that rule and make  
it strictly 535px high and no more.

Re: [css-d] question about universal declaration of zero padding, margin in css stylesheets

2005-10-03 Thread Paul Farnell

Bruce,

The top declaration should take care of it I believe. But if you  
specified a different margin/padding in #header then that would take  
priority, as it's more specific.


Paul.

If I declare at the top of my stylesheet

 when I declare a specific div eg: #header, do I need to declare  
the zero
attributes in there as well or does my top declaration take care of  
that?

Re: [css-d] beginners question

2005-10-03 Thread Paul Farnell
If I understood your problem correctly, it can be fixed by removing  
the "height: 100%" line altogether.


The  will expand automatically to accommodate your content, so  
no need to set its height in this case.


Apologies if I've misunderstood the problem.

Paul

Hi,

I'm making a real simple page for my dad.
http://e.domaindlx.com/lowenf/lj/index.html

In mozilla the container with height 100%, only uses 100% of the  
browser

width, so how to get this right?
In IE there is the nasty horizontal scroll... I think it's some  
element with

a hidden/default margin?

Perhaps if anyone can refer me to a url with all kinds of 'hacks'  
to fix

these small things, It'll be fine too. I
still have to learn it. A solution is always welcome :)

Re: [css-d] Disappearing background image in IE6

2005-10-02 Thread Paul Farnell
Just to let everyone know I managed to fix my disappearing background  
problem. The line I needed to remove was:

#body-wrapper: margin-top: -6px;

Not sure exactly why that caused such an odd bug. It seems that in IE  
when you have two s both with background images, you can't use  
negative margins if it'll cause them to overlap?


Anyway, it's fixed. Wahey!

Paul.
