Re: [css-d] Breaking Apart issue with Firefox

2006-01-25 Thread cj
have you tried min-width?

div#shell {
min-width: 760px;
}

i wouldn't recommend setting the min-width lower than 760 or so,
otherwise people viewing in 800x600 will have horizontal scrolling
100% of the time.

 I've got an issue with this site: http://tinyurl.com/byzgd

 In Firefox (both Mac and PC) - when you contract the window size
 horizontally to the point of being smaller than the content
 container, the site breaks apart a little bit and some of the content
 on the right hand side shifts into unreadable territory. (It's much
 easier to see it visually than to explain it.)

 The behavior I would like is shown in Safari and IE6/Win (with the
 IE7 script), where if the window is contracted horizontally, the
 content stays in its container and the horizontal scrollbar provides
 access.

 If anybody has a clue how I can get Firefox to play along, I'd really
 appreciate it. Thanks!

I think firefox is the one that is correct.  What is happening is that 
body and #shell have no specified width, but #container does.  The bg 
image on body is set to centered.  If body is narrower than 876px, the 
graphic is cropped from both the right and left, but the content stops 
when it hits the left edge of the window.  The fix is to move the bg 
image to #shell and give it a width to match #container
