[WSG] Table and list problem

2007-01-26 Thread Kim Kruse




Hi,


I'm sorry I can't post a URL. (I'm not allowed)


I have this table...


|sidebar/200px|middle/fluid|sidebar/200px|


In that I have...


|empty
td|horizontal
list (nav)|empty td|


Like this...


|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|


and I get this...


|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|li/19,9%|small
*gap*. 2px I think|


The css for the list is here...


#navlist{padding:0 0 20px 0}


#navlist ul {width:100%}
#navlist li{padding:0;margin:0;display:inline;list-style-type:none}


#navlist a:link, #navlist a:visited{font-weight:bold;

text-decoration:none;color:#999;width:19.9%;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;
border-bottom:none!important;font-size: 70%;text-transform: uppercase;
float: left}


PS.: 20% on the li's brake the list in IE (last item wraps)???


Any ideas on how to get it to fill the entire available space in IE?
(FF can do 20% without breaking)

Couldn't we use media rules to make things visible to screen readers?

@media aural, braille, embossed { h1 span { display:inline; } }


Again, that'd be wonderful, but as it stands nothing actually supports 
those to the best of my knowledge.


The tragedy is that the wealth of CSS available since the inception of 
CSS2 for targeting all sorts of different user agents is ignored, and 
as such we increasingly have to account for the custom overrides of 
users.

Re: [WSG] Image replacement menu that works with images off

2006-09-29 Thread Kim Kruse

I thought I'd post back to let you know what I came up with.
It turned out that I was able to use Thierry's solution
(http://www.tjkdesign.com/articles/tip.asp).
Result can be seen here http://geekministry.com/yeah/index.php
If I'm using a BR before the text it is because of IE that shows tiny icons
when images are turned off.


Have a great weekend

I wrote an article about styling a horizontal nav with the IR

It also includes a bit on how to combine it with Suckerfish Dropdowns, 
but the first part should relate to what you want.

Hi,

Maybe I should extend my question a bit. Here on this page 
http://geekministry.com/yeah/index.php I'm currently using Dan 
Cederholm/Pixi's solution 
http://www.simplebits.com/notebook/2003/09/30/accessible_imagetab_rollovers.html 
which works very well with images on. The obvious problem is with 
images off.


Is using a list the best way for a navigation? The reason I ask I 
because is because I want to follow best practice (at my level out in 
the fine art of doing web sites) and I think that using a list and 
css images (separating structure from presentation et al) must be 
better than using real nav buttons or shims/spacer gifs with alt 
texts... right?


The thing I can't get my head around is how to have different size 
nav items without creating 4 css rules for each nav item. (similar to 
example 4 in this article http://tjkdesign.com/articles/tip.asp) but 
that would also require me to use a div for each nav item... right?


I've probably been thinking so much over this problem that I might be 
overlooking a real simple solution.


Thank you
Kim

It should be pointed out that this method has problems when you

Re: [WSG] OnClick - not valid

Use onclick instead... lowercase for xhtml :)

Hi All,

just working on a design - finishing up and going through validation 
etc - see:


http://82.110.105.29/crownstorage.com/professional-services.htm

on the right there are some expandable titles using javascript. The 
page is valid CSS and WAI but the 'OnClick' command fails to validate 
as XHTML - is there another way?


Cheers,

Re: [WSG] Tables - you can still use them in web design article

2006-05-12 Thread Kim Kruse
Yes it should but when was it IE 6 was released? 1999 I think and 7 
years is a very long time for any software.


Need a table... use a table. You really can't blame CSS.

Hi Christian,

The way I wrote that paragraph is perhaps misleading. When I say a 
bug, I am

talking about the fact that the middle column is dropping down below the
left and right column as you resize the page (bug). I am not talking 
about

the fact that the right column eventually disappears (feature).

Basically, the feature doesn't always work right. Try resizing that page
using IE6, the content in the middle drops down *before* the column 
on the
right disappears. The header bar also gets messed up. Disable 
JavaScript and
the paragraph on the right can be moved further to the left than the 
central
paragraph. Maybe my background in software engineering is showing 
here, as

finding and eradicating bugs is part of a programmer's job.


OK, I understand now. Granted the site doesn't work right in IE (I
should probably tell the designer to fix that). But if you look at it
in another browser, any other browser, you'll see the intended
behavior... I guess what I meant to say is look at this site in a
browser like Firefox. Anyway, my original point still stands, just
use a browser other than IE.

Well, with Ians help I got the looks that I want for the page, and it looks

Everything validates to the smallest detail both XHTML and CSS wise.

Any CSS help here would be greatly appreciated.
