Re: [css-d] how the page comes up in IE

258KB is pretty large for a BG image. Saving as a medium jpg in PS, brings
it down to 15KB with acceptable quality.

 hey all,

 http://burlmannconstruction.com/test/css/burlmann.css

 the client is bothered by how the site comes up. Sometimes the background
 image loads right away, other times you see a flash of solid gray background
 colour before it comes up.

 also, intermittently the #wrapper div displays right at the top of the
 screen and then pops down 20px to where it goes.

 Is there anything I can do about that?

 Thanks,
 Sandy

Hmm, try Google up flash of unstyled content? That's what it sounds 
like to me.

 I have a problem in ie...

Which version of IE? Although, I am fairly certain you will say IE 6 because
you mentioned seeing a gray square. For this I recommend:

Thank you,

well, it's not really unstyled. It's just missing that 20px margin.

http://bluerobot.com/web/css/fouc.asp/
and
http://www.techrepublic.com/article/prevent-the-flash-of-unstyled-content/5140996

say it's caused by the @import rule - but I use a link to the style 
sheet, and I also have a second link


link href=css/small_device.css media=only screen and 
(max-width:600px), only screen and (max-device-width: 600px) 
rel=stylesheet type=text/css /


so, I've done what I can for fouc.

excellent guess, but I think it may be something else.

thanks for taking the time to think about this,
Sandy

it's ie7.

Marc, at the risk of sounding a bit thick, this looks like a link to a 
script that fixes ie6's trouble with transparency, right? I don't have 
any transparent pngs here. Or is there something on that link that I am 
not seeing?


thanks!
Sandy
