[WSG] Table and list problem
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) ***List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfmUnsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfmHelp: [EMAIL PROTECTED]***

Re: [WSG] Logo and H1's
Maybe one of these could solve you h1 problem... http://tjkdesign.com/articles/tip.asp or http://tjkdesign.com/articles/a_perfect_Image_Replacement_technique.asp Kim Barney Carroll skrev: Andrew Ingram wrote: 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
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 Kim John Faulds skrev: I wrote an article about styling a horizontal nav with the IR technique I mentioned previously: http://www.tyssendesign.com.au/articles/css/single-image-replacement-rollovers-with-suckerfish-dropdowns/ It also includes a bit on how to combine it with Suckerfish Dropdowns, but the first part should relate to what you want.

Re: [WSG] OnClick - not valid
Use onclick instead... lowercase for xhtml :) Kim John 'Max' Maxwell skrev: 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.

Re: [WSG] Tables - you can still use them in web design article
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. Have a great weekend Kim Stevio wrote: Surely web sites should be designed to work across browsers, especially the browser used by most users, even if it isn't very good? This is a web standards group isn't it? ;-) Stephen - Original Message - From: Christian Montoya [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 5/12/06, Stevio [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 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. ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help ** -- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Kim Kruse - http://www.mouseriders.dk ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
