Re: [css-d] How would you approach an organization chart in CSS?

2008-06-10 Thread Zak Owen
I would agree with an image for the kind of char you want, but don't toss
out the idea of reworking the chart to take better advantage of HTML
elements and CSS, such as a hierarchical OL - you could have a
class=levelN (where N is the level, 0, 1, 2, etc) and each class could
have a set indent based on the level and a different icon for each level's
LI element.

Use bold/unweighted font for the solid lines vs. Founders and Hon VP (since
they have the dotted lines going on).

Also, tables would do fine, but again you would have to think outside of the
original design.  One idea would be to create a table, make use of nbsp;'d
cells in the table for spacing or overflow: auto; for cells (can't remember
if this is legal in a TD?).  Instead of solid chart lines, use different
color backgrounds from cell to cell and make your cellspacing and border to
0.

Good Luck!

  I could rework it in another graphic, but I was trying to think how
  you could do it with just markup and CSS.

Re: [css-d] Image Placement in CSS - Help!

2007-10-24 Thread Zak Owen
Hi,

  I'm kind of limited in testing as I'm at school right now, but I
think you should be able to position this element using style
attributes such as

.myImageClass {
  position: fixed;
  right: 20px;
  bottom: 20px;
}

or something similar. Also, look into perhaps making the pumpkins a
watermark so that once you've positioned them, they should stay fixed
no matter how the page flows and scrolls. You may have to achieve this
using some kind of hack, such as having the pumpkins as the background
for a div that takes up the whole viewport, but this is probably not
what you're looking for (and may not work for all I know). As far as
transparent PNGs in IE6, well, I can't really help there.  I would
suggest perhaps having the page determine if the browser is IE6 or
OTHER and using a GIF (ew I know) for IE6 and let everyone else
enjoy the crisp PNG action.

Hope this helps,
Zak

 Please help me! I really want to execute this design

 and CSS can be found here: http://e7flux.com/tgb/ -
 I'm not sure how to place this image where I want it
 and have it always be in that particular spot even if
 the linen runner part of the design grows as content
 gets added (that will be on another page).

 Dunno if I should place it as a background image as I
 already have a bit of that going on with the other
 images. Or do I use the position property with a
 z-index, though I'm not really sure how to go about
 doing that. What I've already tried hasn't worked.
 This design is for the most part a visual experience,
 there won't be a whole lot of textual content, so it's
 really important I code this site as designed.

 Another issue I'm having is that I'm working with png
 files for transparency which are giving me a headache
 in IE 6 even though I implemented the twinhelix.com
 script someone on this list suggested a while back.
 There are issues with it - I can't have tiling
 backgrounds and this design is comprised of tiling
 backgrounds - is there a work around and or another
 script someone can suggest? I so hate IE!

 All feedback and suggestions welcomed.


 TIA,
 Elli

Re: [css-d] IE6 link not working

2007-10-23 Thread Zak Owen
Here is a snippet from your code:
div class=section campain
img class=secondaryImg src=images/tempImg2.jpg alt=image
width=255 height=93 /
h2IT-hoder til de toslash;ffeste prosjektene/h2
pita miratur laudeque poetas/p  
a class=linkLes mer/a
/div !-- end .section --

This is the trouble line: a class=linkLes mer/a
For an anchor tag to take effect, it has to have the href= attribute
set, otherwise the link won't fire and it seems that IE6 isn't
acknowledging your a tags without href, hence your lack of :hover
effects. The :hover shows up fine in IE7, btw.

Hope this helps

Re: [css-d] IE 7.0 not recognizing height:100%

2006-11-16 Thread Zak Owen
Hi Heidi,

  The support for CSS to stretch content vertically is a bit tricky
since CSS is unaware of the browser window's width and height, though
you could take steps to figure these values out with Javascript, but I
don't recommend it as there may be other alternatives:

 -Have you tried applying height:100%; to your #whole_page section?
 -Have you tried adding position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px; to your
body section?

I'm not sure if either of these would help, but they are worth a shot.
I haven't had a chance to check it out myself, but when I get in
tonight I'll take a look at some other possibilities.

 Hi,

 Im am fairly new to CSS. Thi is my issue:

 My design is fairly simple, I just want my content centered in the middle

 body, html {

 height: 100%;

 So this works on my Mac in firefox and safari but not in IE5 on the mac nor
 IE7 on a pc. Is there a work around for this? You can view my problem in

Re: [css-d] Sidebar not showing up in IE?

2006-11-13 Thread Zak Owen
Hi, I'm running IE 6 and it seems to be showing up, however your
rollovers aren't working properly. IE only recently started supporting
:hover on elements other than hyperlinks, and I don't think a majority
of users are up to IE 7 yet (though I could be wrong). A possible
solution to this problem would be JavaScript:

Option 1 - The not-so-desirable implementation:
ul
  li onMouseOver=someFunctionToChangeBGColor()
onMouseOut=someFunctionToRevertColor()Ach mein Leibe/li
...et al
/ul

This one is not so desirable since it mixes Javascript in to your HTML
and also makes for bulky li tags.

Option 2
This one requires a little more work and I won't go in to detail
unless you want to know more about it, but in a nutshell:
 - create function that loads after the body has loaded - function should:
   - find your ul based on a given id: ul id='myList'
   - traverse list for items present
   - set handlers for each li in the list that correspond to
mouseover and mouseout:
 item.onmouseover = function(){ this.style.background='#22';}
## I'm not positive that is the correct JS for changing the BG
off the top of my head, just using it as an example.
 - Next, this function should be called in the body tag:
   body onLoad=myFunction()

This approach minimizes the mixing of JS with HTML while also being a
more dynamic approach - if done right, your list can constantly change
while your JS remains the same. Let me know and I'll throw together a
sample page.

-Zak

 On Firefox, there's a little sidebar on the left with subpages. This

 and looks dirty/ugly.

 What did I do wrong?

 Thanks for any input!
