Re: [css-d] vertical centering of list-style-image with list item

2009-05-28 Thread scott.heckel
// Is there any way to adjust the vertical alignment for IE?

Not for list images (as far as I can remember).  I wouldn't be too picky
about stuff like that, but if you really want it to look centered you
have a few options.

1) Bigger (vertically) image that does look centered.
2) Use a background image on the li instead (with a little left
padding).
3) Adjust the font-size and assume the user won't noodle with this. 

I think #1 is the way to go.

Re: [css-d] Can CSS compare the href to the URL and if they match, highlight the href?

2009-02-18 Thread scott.heckel
 Is there a way to write the style so that it will work without putting

 a style unique to each page in the head of that page? Can CSS compare 
 the href to the URL and if they match, highlight the href? If every 
 body tag has a unique id and I add a matching id to the link to that 
 page, could I somehow get the browsers to compare that?

You could probably do something with the CSS3 :target pseudo-class, but
it would be awkward at best.  Browser support would also be lacking.
The best bet is some sort of server side programming or Javascript;
however, both would be off topic.

Re: [css-d] Opera 9, input type=file and text-indent

2008-04-02 Thread scott.heckel
 text-indent doesn't work on input type=submit /, so I can't use a 
 background-image to style it

I think you're going to have to provide some sample code of what exactly you 
are doing as text-indent applies to block level elements.

Re: [css-d] Oldest Browser Currently Testing for

2008-03-05 Thread scott.heckel
Virtualization is great for this sort of thing; however, specifically
what I do is.

Opera and Netscape
The browsers allow for multiple versions coexisting on the same machine.

Firefox
I use a virtualization program for different older browser; however,
there are tips online for getting two separate installations to work at
the same time.  It's relatively painless.

Internet Explorer
I download the Multiple Ies program.

Safari
I've noticed tends to behave similar enough to Opera that it doesn't
need to be tested as much (except Javascript).

Generally I test Opera 9+, Netscape 7+, IE5.5+, Firefox 1+, Safari 1+
which makes up the overwhelming majority of users that I care about.

Set overflow-x:none



From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Ray Leventhal
Sent: Tue 8/7/2007 8:28 AM
To: css-d
Subject: [css-d] scrollbars and 'overflow'



Hi all,

I've a site with a moderate amount of content in each page, with one
exception.

Markup:
http://www.newlifemontessori.org/index.php?why

CSS:
http://www.newlifemontessori.org/styles/newlifemontessori.css

I've got overflow-y: auto; on div id=main, so I certainly expect to
see the vertical scroll bar.

I was going to ask: Must I explicitly add overflow-x: hidden; to that
element to prevent the horizontal bar at bottom?  but even with that
added, the horizontal bar appears.

The content doesn't appear to come close to the div boundaries, so this
one has me a bit puzzled.

TIA for any comments/suggestions.

Best regards,
~Ray

Re: [css-d] IE7 vs FF Question

2007-06-14 Thread scott.heckel
 This test page: http://www.gfarnsworth.com/TEST/Test4.htm
 appears very different in the two browsers. The look I want is what I
see in Firefox and Netscape.

The reason for this is due to a transitional doctype.  If you set it to
a strict doctype they will look very similar.

I forgot to mention though that that won't fix it for older versions of

Re: [css-d] Image text replacement

2007-06-13 Thread scott.heckel
 Here's a demo using modified Gilder-Levin with a link instead of a
span. 
 I've tested it in FF1.5 and IE6. Since the A and SPAN tags are both
inline and a:hover 
 and a:active are well-supported, it should work over the same range as
the modified 
 Gilder-Levin:

 http://www.triche-osborne.com/testing/demos/image_replacement2.html

If you use this form of the G-L with a hyperlink, there will be a
linking issue with a text-only browser.  I did a google and came up with
this page, which shows how you can use the same method but keep the text
linked.

http://www.pmob.co.uk/temp/headerreplacement3.htm

I checked it with Opera's text browser emulator and it seems to work
flawlessly.

I'm not sure if this is exactly what you want, but this seems to get it
close to the feeling of their site.  You'll need to add the js portion.

li:hover ul {
 display:block;

Re: [css-d] Inheritence Problem

2007-05-17 Thread scott.heckel
I believe the reason for this is that conquerer sees an error with your
HTML.  The paragraph tag is one of those block level elements that can
only contain inline level elements.  H3 is a block level element.  I
found this link, which seems to have good information about why this is
the case.

http://www.autisticcuckoo.net/archive.php?id=2005/01/11/block-vs-inline-
1

In your example, there really is no need to have the following:

ph3text/h3/p

It can be replaced with:

h3text/h3

This will remove the issue and tidy up your code.

Re: [css-d] ul two rows same markup

2007-05-16 Thread scott.heckel
 I would like to know if it's possible to create two rows using the
following markup   (without clearing divs) and have them centered
(both rows)within a div.

This will work for the two rows (style appropriately from here).

ul {

}
li {
 display:inline;
} 

For the bar seperators, you may want to just use a left border on all
but the first li.  You'll ensure compatibility with all browsers that
way.

Re: [css-d] remove input border via css?

2007-05-15 Thread scott.heckel
I suppose I was not very clear, but Yucca hid it right on the head.
On an interactive quiz page I respond to each student response with
some 
constructive feedback which I currently display in a multiline
textfield.  I 
would like to provide the feedback so that it looks like normal text on
the 
page without the appearance of the textfield.
Is there a simple way to display this feedback in some other element
other 
than a textfield?

The overflow property will work with that.  One thing that I noticed
though was that some browsers don't like the overflow:visible property
on the textarea tag; however, every browser I checked like
overflow:hidden.  Maybe you could utilize that styling with a known
height.

Re: [css-d] ie7 mouseover graphic jumping

2007-05-08 Thread scott.heckel
 When you put your mouse over it the over graphic is a little slow to
load so the
 original background color shows first before the over image shows so
it looks like
 it is jumping.

I personally didn't see a slow transition for the rollover effect, but
what you could do is preload the image.  If you place another item on
the page with that image and then set it's CSS property of display to
none that should do the trick.  I haven't tried this trick with IE7,
but I would assume it would still hold true.

Re: [css-d] Browser check and IE 6 sub navigation problem

2007-05-04 Thread scott.heckel
A good way to check your clients pages with other versions of IE is to
install multiple IE versions on the same machine.  There are a few
tutorials on how to do this, but the easiest one is the Multiple IEs
installer from TredoSoft.  http://tredosoft.com/Multiple_IE  You can
also check out the page about this on Position is Everything
