Re: [WSG] Footnotes Project Needs IE Check

2006-06-05 Thread Soeren Mordhorst

Everything looks fine in IE, except the part 'Essay'.
In IE 6 the maincontent sticks under the nav.
The reason for this is the font. I believe, that if you would use % 
instead of em, the problem would be solved. There is a 
font-size-difference between Firefox and IE. IE-letters are much bigger. 
Hope, that somebody else could give a statement if to use % or em. There 
was a discussion some time ago.


Your problem is here:

supa id=fn1 href=# class=note1span
emMother#8217;s Journal/em,
May 1846, 142; see also emMother#8217;s
Monthly Journal/em,April 1839, 56/span
/a/sup



Your class 'pre' is defined like this:
#maincontent pre {
padding: 0 3em 0 5em;
font-size: inherit;
}
pre {
font-size: 1.2em !important;
margin: 0;
line-height: 1.2em;
}

To get a fast fix, you could change e.g. the padding to a lower value, 
or you will choose to decrease the font size.

I tried the following change to get a fast fix, and it works:
* html pre {
font-size: 1.1em !important;
margin: 0;
line-height: 1.1em;
}

But there is still an accessibility issue left. If the user now makes 
the letters manually bigger in IE, then AGAIN the content sticks under 
the nav. So maybe changing em to % will help more :)

You have mark-up errors:

Re: [WSG] Print style sheets - still struggling!

2006-06-05 Thread Donna Jones

Hi Bob:


I am still battling with print style sheets -

In particular, I have several property descriptions on the  holiday 
site, [1],  and I'm failing to get a decent print out.  Some are OK, 
some are awful, and I can't see what the difference is.  If you go to 
the site, pick 'holiday homes', then 'Constantine', then 'Curlews' and 
look at 'full details', you will find that the print style produces a 
reasonable print-out from firefox, but rubbish from IE. The problem is 
all tied up with the images being floated left and right: in FF there is 
no problem, but in IE I don't get any word wrap and the images stand 
alone. It's a mess.


The two style sheets for these details are at [2] and [3].

If anyone has had experience of this and how to overcome it, I'd be 
really, really, thrilled.


you know what, i looked at Curlews in IE6 and it was perfect.  I noticed 
an option I'd never noticed before, the option to print selected frame 
 maybe that's a clue that will help.  the issue is w/ the frames, 
somehow, maybe.

Hi Donna, and thanks.  I wrote a follow up, the next day, saying that 
I'd fixed it. What it was, there was a' text-align : justify' in the

worked wonders!

RE: [WSG] Pixel Perfect

2006-06-05 Thread Rachel May
Hi Bruce,

Hope you don't feel like a dummy, because I don't think this is perhaps a
straight forward request as first appears, and I would echo Steve's comment:
there's no way I'd expect a Web page to create a perfect PDF without
special consideration of that requirement up-front.

I have found that you can get extremely different results depending on how
you generate the PDF. For e.g. if you have acrobat installed in your browser
to generate a PDF from a webpage at the click of a button, you will get a
very different look than if you go Print then Save as PDF. And of course
Macs give different results than PC.

On your Webster site when I used the Acrobat to make a PDF I just got a list
of the links with a background image. But when I went PrintSave as PDF I
got your nice print style sheet with the content.

So I guess you'll have to find out how she is creating the PDF first...  I
have a feeling that the Acrobat in the browser thing would perhaps rely on
table-layouts, because I have not been able to properly replicate a CSS
based site with it and usually end up going through the Print path.

Let us know how you get on!

Rachel

Sent: Sunday, June 04, 2006 3:04 PM
Subject: Re: [WSG] Pixel Perfect


 Im just going to echo what Bob said. Your site will not print properly 
 because a) your site is fixed width and is not designed to scale with 
 smaller display areas (such as the translated size of A4 paper), and b) 
 you do not have any style sheet that applies to printed pages, so that the

 fixed width will be converted to a variable width site (ready for for 
 document printing).

 My advise would be to add in a print style sheet, that a) converts the 
 page to a variable width format and b) removes non-required elements such 
 as redundant images, headers, navigation etc. Printing a site (or 
 converting to pdf) is generally done to be able to view the content of the

 page they are after, not to have a duplicate paper copy of a website.

 Thanks,

 David.

 When I print to acrobat distiller, the pdf is nothing like the web site! 
 I wouldn't expect it to be actually, unless I'd provided a print style 
 sheet.  Did I miss it? I couldn't see one in there.

 Also Bruce, folk using IE with text size set to small will not be able to

 read a fair proportion of the text - it's miniscule!  Sorry if you don't

Hi guys,

I found this nice little tool on the web which simulates the effects of
colour blindness:

http://www.aspnetresources.com/tools/colorblindness.aspx

You can upload your images to the site and it will show them in two of the
more common forms of colour blindness. Might be useful to check if the
design of a site is accessible. 

Cheers,

  |   Subject:  [WSG] Colour blindness simulator
  |
  
---|




Hi guys,

I found this nice little tool on the web which simulates the effects of
colour blindness:

http://www.aspnetresources.com/tools/colorblindness.aspx

You can upload your images to the site and it will show them in two of the
more common forms of colour blindness. Might be useful to check if the
design of a site is accessible.

Cheers,

Andreas.

RE: [WSG] [WSG CMS] Etomite CMS

2006-06-05 Thread Ryan Moore
Hopefully this is not off-topic, but every CMS in my belief she be equipped
with a powerful WYSIWYG editor.  What is the preferred editor some may use
in their cms' that keep things standard.  I'd be interested in an editor
that will validate XHTML strict.

  I would like to hear from those who have plenty of
  CMSs experiences or who are CMS developers, how do
  you think of Etomite CMS.

You should go with what works for you.

drupal.org works for me.
