Re: [css-d] Mystery space
I am back with the same problem. David pointed out the issue, however I really don't understand WHY it's happening, and how to even things out. http://proof.mlinc.com/mlinc.com/testpages/6-10/index.html On this page, I want the footer copyright to hug the bottom of the container above it. In FF, it looks as desired (yes, i'll add a little space in later) but in Safari 4.0.5 (current release) it has a gap. Removing the box-shadow had no effect. What am I missing here? -- Tom Livingston | Senior Interactive Developer | Media Logic | ph: 518.456.3015x231 | fx: 518.456.4279 | mlinc.com __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/

Update: The gap also appears in IE8. Also, what is the proper way to use rgb as a fallback to rgba ? I have: color: rgb(255,255,255); color: rgba(255,255,255,.4); I saw this somewhere with the mention that the rgba would be ignored by unsupported browsers, but IE6 and 7 show black not white.

What am I missing here? min-height is what you are missing. Or rather, the issue you see comes from your usage of min-height on your wrapper. And I'm not sure if Firefox, per current spec, is correct (the paragraph in the latest spec is much more filled with ambiguity [1]). The space you see in WebKit / Opera is the margin-bottom on the p that contains 'Tagline'. In Gecko based browsers, that margin-bottom is contained within the min-height wrapper (it cannot escape). WebKit allows the margin to collapse through, creating the gap you see. [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/box.html#collapsing-margins An element's own margins are adjoining if the 'min-height' property is zero, and it has neither top or bottom borders nor top or bottom padding, and it has a 'height' of either 0 or 'auto', and it does not contain a line box, and all of its in-flow children's margins (if any) are adjoining.

[css-d] Mystery space

Philip, It's there. I see it in your screenie. The type was black. Sorry. David, Removing the min-height did cause both Safari and FF Mac to act the same. Adding it caused Safari to lose any space between the footer and wrap. Adding a margin-top to footer of 20px seems to cause both to behave the same. As far as many position: relative; being set, I have had a lot of issues in the past that were solved simply by explicitly declaring this, even though it is default, and in this case was the result of me hunting for a solution to my problem. -- Tom Livingston | Senior Interactive Developer | Media Logic | ph: 518.456.3015x231 | fx: 518.456.4279 | mlinc.com __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/

aside What's with position: relative; set on nearly everything...? -- desktop http://chelseacreekstudio.com/ Actually, removing position: relative; from #leftCol and #rightCol caused the negative margin overhangs to the left and right to become clipped at the edge of #wrap in IE6. Adding them back fixed it.

Re: [css-d] Mystery space
Change your footer style to: #footer{width: 850px; margin: 0 auto 0 auto;} #footer p{ color: #fff; } You had a margin of 20px and this should be zero. hth --- On Fri, 6/4/10, Tom Livingston tom...@gmail.com wrote: Having an issue with Safari 4 Mac and a mystery space above the text Footer on this page: http://proof.mlinc.com/mlinc.com/testpages/6-10/index.html Anyone see where it's coming from?
