[css-d] div background only partially showing up in IE7
I've been testing this draft page with several platforms/browsers. The #nav div is supposed to show a purple bar above with a horizontal band of images below. For some reason, I'm unable to see the images in IE7, although they show up in all other browsers. Any help would be appreciated: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/rare/web/web/sample-home.html Thanks, Peg ambientglow __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
[css-d] IE 7 only display issue for background image
Forgot to post the CSS on my former post. IE7 doesn't seem to want to display the full background image in my #nav div on this draft page: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/rare/web/web/sample-home.html Here's the CSS: ://www.ambientglow.com/garage/rare/web/web/_css/rare-home.css I revised the CSS to adjust the height of the #header (which contains the #nav div) and remove the #header background image with the result that it displays fine in IE7 but has a bottom white space of appx 117px in other browsers: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/rare/web/web/sample-home1.html Here's the CSS: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/rare/web/web/_css/rare-home1.css Is there some way to write a conditional rule just for IE7 in regards to the #header #nav div? Or is there some other way to correct this?

Re: [css-d] IE 7 only display issue for background image
Thanks for that fix. Unfortunately, it still isn't displaying
correctly in IE7 (it's only IE7 apparently). Now the images show, but
the bottom of the image bar is cut off. If I extend the height to
display the entire image in IE7, then I've got the white space problem
underneath. I'm stumped.

Oh you are a life saver! That is so strange to me that it would work
w/o a height declaration, but it seems to be a.o.k. now in both
Windows and Mac. Thank you so much! Hopefully this will improve your
evening ;-)

[css-d] text in menu display problem
I have a client who is using IE 6 on a laptop. When she views this draft HOME page, the menu text appears as it should: orange-yellow lettering on a progressively shaded bar background. http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/pmsca/web/index.html On the draft INSIDE pages, however, she says that the text on the navigation (including drop-downs) is dark brown on some entries and orange-yellow on others: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/pmsca/web/sub-who/PMSCA/p-today.html Since the CSS and html for the menu is identical on all pages, I'm really stumped as to what could be causing this display issue. The darker brown color she sees on the inside page menu text is very similar to the a:link style for the inside page CSS, so I'm wondering if somehow something is getting crossed? Here is the CSS for the menu: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/pmsca/web/SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css and for the page: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/pmsca/web/_css/pmsca-inside.css Any help would be appreciated.

[css-d] avoiding text scrolling over portion of background image
Questions on this draft page I'm working on: Page: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/gearhart/Web/sample.html Css: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/gearhart/Web/css/gearhart.css I'm using a background image in the #content which basically fills in the bottom of the logo used in the #banner. Because the area is fixed in size, I'm using a scroll overflow, but then what happens is the text scrolls over the bottom of the logo when it moves up. Is there any way to keep the scroll portion fixed in place, so it doesn't move over the image? Or, barring that, is there a way to style the text, perhaps in another div, to accomplish this? OrI'm completely open to suggestion!

I need a way for the viewer to change text size on a page -- the idea would be that "somehow" by clicking an "increase size" or "decrease size" link the text could be scaled up or down.

[css-d] CSS sidebar question

At the moment I just have a height specified of 500px as a placeholder so the sidebar will show. The CSS is here: http://ambientglow.com/RV/css/inside.css Any idea how I can do this? I'm still new to this -- do I need to make it relative vs. absolute positioning? Or...?

Re: [css-d] CSS sidebar question
Thank you; that makes sense and is a very workable solution! I've also been experimenting with eliminating the sidebar completely (it's just there to have a vertical band of color) and putting a repeating left-aligned background image in the main content area that is 35 pixels wide and the appropriate color.

Re: [css-d] dropdown menu won't display over embedded flash movie?
Those are some good reference links, Melissa. Thanks. Unfortunately it doesn't fix the problem (sigh). As long as the movie isn't loaded the drop-downs work; as soon as it is loaded, the menu falls behind the movie. P.

Re: [css-d] IE doesn't want to display flash in div
The markup errors are all related to the embedded flash object parameters -- e.g., what defines the presentation of the movie. Don't know why they show up as errors when Flash creates the html when the movie is exported! It is something about having an embedded object in the that IE doesn't seem to recognize. I've tried inserting text (so there's readable content there) and that doesn't help. I've also tried setting the #slideshow to display:block but that didn't do the trick either. As I mentioned, it seems to work fine in all other browsers, so I'm looking for an IE workaround , if there is one. Thanks, P.

[css-d] CSS menu drops behind content div -- how to fix?
I'm using a CSS P7 menu on this draft page and it is dropping down behind the content div. (please don't gag at the graphics!

I can't figure out what the problem is, since I used this same menu and css successfully in a recent site where the menu drops over the content: http://globalfairness.org/involved/involved.html and css: http://globalfairness.org/css/inside.css Maybe I've suffering brain death, but if anyone has an idea of why it's working in the one site but not the other I'd appreciate it.

[css-d] background image makes border and footer disappear
I'm working on a revamp of a site: http://www.ambientglow.com/garage/DT/index.html Each section will have a different "dreamy" collage-type background image -- at the moment only the home and "Contact" page have the image on the page. As you can see, when there is no background image, #footer and the border around #container shows up -- but when I pop the background image in, both disappear. Anybody got any ideas on how to fix this?

Re: [css-d] background image makes border and footer disappear
Brian and Rick -- thanks for the z-index solution. I always forget that! Brian, you mentioned that the backgroundimages are best left in the CSS file -- since this would normally be associated with the body tag, and there will be different backgrounds for each main page, how would the CSS be written for this? I know how to do this if writing for a div or class, but not sure how for body. Thanks!

Re: [css-d] how to hyperlink a background image?
Thanks for that technique, Matt -- that's a new one for me and very interesting. I was actually referring to the background image. I have the client logo as a bg in the header div. What I wound up doing was putting a transparent .gif there and linking that back to the home page. Many people will click on a page logo to return to the home page, and she wanted that on the site in addition to a text link.
