Re: [css-d] IE 8

2009-05-05 Thread Vladislav Vladimirov
> plus: it doesn't contain IE 7

Yes - it doesn't, but the same team that developed it (Tredosoft) have
come up with an IE 7 Standalone version:

http://tredosoft.com/IE7_standalone

It is packed separately, because at the time of release IE7 was the
latest IE version, and you could either have an original IE 7 and want
to use previous versions (multiple IE), or don't want to upgrade yet,
but install just a IE 7 standalone for testing purposes.

Using CSS to change to case of a text does it for display purposes
only - the actual value of the text is not changed. If you submit that
form to a script that sends to email, you will see that. What you are
trying to achieve I think should not be done trough CSS (because you
say "at some time I want to capitalize them" - this suggests you will
be using the values of the text on another page, probably passed on to
a PHP script on the backend). This should be done through PHP on the
backend on JS on the frontend.

Since you didn't provide a demo link, I could only guess you are
having  elements separating the -s of the navigation. The
breaks should be the cause of the unexpected margin. If you don't have
access to the menu code to delete them, you can hide them through css
like this:

#navigation br {
 display:none;
}

Re: [css-d] Top margin not set properly.

2009-03-06 Thread Vladislav Vladimirov
> Top margin not set properly.
> Check the code at
> http://pastie.org/409144

Do you pay per word for this email? :) From that scarce information
you gave I *suppose* you have a margin collapse issue. I suppose you
are wondering why the "outer-container" does not stick to the body
top, even though the body has margins top and bottom set to 0. This is
due to the margin-top of the P element being passed on to the adjacent
"inner-container", which in turn passes it on to the adjacent
"outer-container", which in turn passes it on to the adjacent BODY
element. So, you are having a margin-top for the body equal to the
margin-top of the P element. In order to cope with this you have to
break the 'adjacent margins chain'. I suggest setting the margin of P
to 0, and using padding instead (like P {padding: .5em 0;})

And this is exactly what you will get - you will get the same result
by using the construction I recommended. Just avoid using !important
declarations elsewhere that could overwrite these propeties. If you
want to be sure a property will get priority, declare it in a more
specific selector. !important is to be avoided unless absolutely
necessary.

You can just be more specific in defining the selector, like this:

html body a.myclass {

Re: [css-d] How to Apply CSS to Title Tag

2008-12-19 Thread Vladislav Vladimirov
> head, title { display: block; }

That's fine, but this would show and style the title tag contents in
the canvas, and *not* in the title bar of the browser application, and
I think this is what Chris was asking for.

The title tag is not meant to be visualised, therefore should not be
able to accept css styles. The title tag goes in the HEAD section of
the HTML document, which contains the meta info only, and anything
that is visualised is in the BODY tag. The visualisation of the TITLE
in the titlebar is some kind of browser/os interaction, and does not
involve css.

Maybe you can use H1 headings in the document's BODY section to
achieve what you want?

Re: [css-d] alignment question

I would apply "position:relative" to the container and
"position:absolute" to the inner div, enabling me to then position it
"bottom:0". Something like this:

.outer {
height:400px;
position:relative;
}

.inner {
height:200px;
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
}
