[css-d] Top border of fieldset missing in IE6, IE7

2009-06-17 Thread Peter Speltz
Hi. In IE 6 and IE 7 , can anyone tell me how to get my top border on  
my fieldset to go over to the legend at this page:
http://www.pogoe.org/ask/cancer-pain

works great in Safari and FF.


This old post may be similar but I could not see a demo and none of   
the suggestions helped me.

[css-d] layout inline elements in block

2006-08-16 Thread Peter Speltz
Hello wonderful list. I have a simple problem i think. I've tried for
an hour to get a good solution.  Basically i want a Heading bar that
has the Heading TEXT left justified and menu links right justified.
The number of links is unknown.  here is sample html:

 HEADING TEXT item1 
item2 ... 

So it looks like:

HEADING TEXT
 item1  item2  item3

The best  solution I came up with is to set a big left margin on the
span . But this does not right justify or compensate well for a few
more menu items.   Can someone show me a dynamic solution?

Thank you.

Re: [css-d] invalid: nesting a div inside a dt-- alternative?-- SOLVED

2005-10-20 Thread Peter Speltz
You probably know this but in case not, it looks like you have a typo
in your name  "projectdddress".  Should it be "projectaddress" with an
'a'?  That could hang you up later maybe if you were to make something
for "projectaddress".

cheers,

You are right.  After re reading, this is seems to fall under the
domain of *bottom edges being deliberatly left out of CSS
specification*.  Since there is no other content besides floats in the
parent div, the floats appear to jump out of it.  CSS2.1 specifies
that a floated parent has to expand to contain floated children so I
could float the parent (obj_bar).  However I actually like the the
thin line  better that the thick backgound bar so I got lucky here. :)
  Thanks all for your help.

Thanks for the link too,

[css-d] Floating divs moved out of parent. Puzzzled???

2005-09-19 Thread Peter Speltz
Hi all. I request the wisdom of the list again. I'm having some fun
with css and have run across something I do not understand no matter
how muck I read CSS The Definitiev Guide.  I'm using FireFox 1.0.6 on
Suse 9.1 Pro.

The issue is i have 3 divs. obj_bar is a container for the obj_title
and obj_links. Its width is auto so it is as wide as parent lets it
be.  The parent , the main div that takes up most of the page, is 70%
of the body so it is fluid and floated right.
I want obj_title to be filled arbitrarily with content but be only
~50%  the width of the obj_bar.  So i float it left.  On the other
~50% of the obj bar  I want obj_links so I float that right.  The top
border is black and the bottom border is red on the obj_bar so you can
see what is happening..

Now for some reason when I float the *obj_links* right,  both the
*obj_title* and *obj_links* jump out of the container div.  The borders of
the container(*obj_bar*) smash together and no background is visible.
They (*obj_title* and *obj_links*)  are
both floated perfectly below their container(*obj_bar*).  See
 www.cafes.net/peter/css/snapshot4.png
 I do not understand this.

If  i do not float the obj_links right, they both stay in the
container, albeit the obj_links drop below the obj_title no matter how
small i make its width.  I do not understand this either. I expected
it to be  next to the left floated div as long as there was enough
width in the parent to accomodate them both.  See 
www.cafes.net/peter/css/snapshot6.png

Why are they jumping the container div?  Why does obj_links seem to
clear itself from the left floated div unless i float it also?  I'm
using FireFox 1.0.6  on a Suse 9.1 Linux box.  Below is the css and
html bits.  Thank you.

div.obj_bar {
   margin: 1%;
   width: auto;
   border-top: solid 1px #000;
   border-bottom: solid 1px red;
   background-color: #80CF67;
}

div.obj_title {
   /*margin: 2% 2% 10% 0 ;*/
   padding: 2px;
   width: 50%;
   float: left;
   font-size: 14pt;
   /*font-family: Arial; */
   font-weight: bold;
}

/* object menu */
div.obj_links {
   width: 40%;
   float: right; /* this makes both jump container */
   margin: 0 ;
   font-size: 9pt;
   font-family: Arial;
   font-weight: bold;
   text-align: left;
}

Ahh, yes. Intent. That is the word i was looking for rather than
*limit*.  As a programmer , i fully appreciate code that demonstrates
how it is intended to be used.  Thanks all and i will check out the
wiki when i get a chance.

Wow! This list rocks.  I will look up the differnces of id and class.
The only difference i know of is you can have only one  instance of
any given id on a page.  If anyone cares to reply: Is using id just a
matter of protection for the developer by limiting them or is there
more to it than that?

cheers,

Re: [css-d] How to get rid of gaps

2005-08-31 Thread Peter Speltz
Thank you both. Indeed whitespace in the markup was the problem. 
Firefox did not recognize multiple src attributes or my doc is missing
some header info.  s that an XHTML spec or HTML or ???   However
eliminating the whitespace between the img tags did the trick.

Also Thierry, i used your suggestion  and went with the descendent
selector for the images. Less typing is good. Thank you for pointing
that out.

Cheers,

Peter

Re: [css-d] How to get rid of gaps

2005-08-31 Thread Peter Speltz
Hi all. I'm having a similar problem.  I'm using Firefox on a PC for
starters.   Despite 0margins, 0 padding,I have gaps that i do not
understand between images that make up my banner. I've been reading
CSS , The definitive guide for several weeks and from what i can tell,
if margin is 0, there should not be  space with background showing
through between inline elements.   Is that right?If i float them
it looks as it should in Firefox however my new Opera browser  :) 
insists on gaps either way.Am I missing something?

Confused, 

Pjs

P.S. Here is the style used for all three images: 

img.logo {
border: none;
margin:0px ;
padding: 0px;
/*float: left;  fixes it in Firefox PC */
}
div.logobar { 
width: 800px;
height: 84px;
padding: 0;
margin:0px auto;
}

Here is the markup:
