[WSG] Dropdown Menu disappears after 2nd or 3rd links down

[Kristine Cummins]

Hi all,

When hovering about the 2nd or 3rd links down in the dropdown, it disappears
instead of allowing the user to scroll the entire list of links. The issue
is in Safari and seems to work fine in IE and Firefox

Menu / Web page: http://www.artscouncilnapavalley.org/test/index.shtml

CSS: http://www.artscouncilnapavalley.org/test/menu.css

The dropdown css is towards the bottom of the file.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Kristine

[WSG] Extra space in menu in IE on hover

[Kristine Cummins]

Menu on left... on mouseover, the bg color should fill the entire height in
between top and bottom borders and doesn't. There is about a 5 pixel gap. In
FF, it looks fine.

Web: http://esw.sbw.org/
CSS: http://esw.sbw.org/wp-content/plugins/menubar-templates/esw/eswmenu.css

Thanks in advance.

[WSG] 3-Col Issue & Javascript Heavy site

[Kristine Cummins]

Hi All:

 

I am developing a community calendar that is ran by javascripts that pulls
from database. It has a 3-col layout. I'm aware that javascript-based site
is not the most "accessible" but was the economical option for our
non-profit. I have two questions:

 

1)In Safari, the center col is not filling the entire center like it
should on both PC and Mac but all other browsers OK. The floating left and
right sidebars have margins sent while the center col sits relative in the
middle.



2)Since this is a primarily javascript-ran website, can you give me
tips, on how to make it more accessible? I'm not going to do extreme
measures here, but maybe will implement some basics. 

 

Site: http://www.nvarts.org/demo/index.shtml

CSS: http://www.nvarts.org/demo/styles.css

 

 

Thanks for your time!
Kristine

[WSG] DHTML Menus

I've recently seen some arguments against the use of DHTML menus for

topic?

RE: [WSG] IE Problems

[Kristine Cummins]

Update: I found the source of the issue. it's the WYSWYG WP blog edit
content interface that mucked up the HTML and inserted an enormous amount of
unnecessary formatting code in. Is there a way to keep this from happening?
This is probably more of a question for WP but thought I'd put it out there.

Hi all:

I'm having a strange link issue where three links in the content area are
not linking and the code is valid. Each link is assigned with a class.
Either I'm having a brain fart, or something strange is going on. It's

Another question: why is it that the .png file shows a white background in

Should I not use the .png file type yet?

[WSG] Big Browsing Issues on clients PC Laptop AOL

[Kristine Cummins]

I just launched a site, and it’s browsing fine on my PC & Mac laptop from IE5-8 
browsers to FF etc. However, when my client visits her site on her PC laptop 
using AOL, it is browsing (as if) the stylesheet is applying only half way.  
I’ve recommended her to download the latest IE or FF, but she hasn’t done it 
yet. When she goes to her place of work, it looks fine. How could there be this 
huge discrepancy on her PC Laptop using AOL?

Site is www.dianebrinker.com

I have a div container that has a background image (gradation) which is
displaying fine in IE7 & Mozilla, but it's not displaying in IE5 & IE6.
Within that containing div with the background-image is a "content" div
floating left with a "background-color: #fff", and a sidebar
"background-color:transparent" --- so that it displays the background image.
Anyone knows why or a better solution? If I put the background-image in the
sidebar of where I want it to display, it cuts off too short because there's
not enough content in the sidebar - thus put it in the containing div so
that there's no cut off issue.

In the header of your HTML should be a line like this - . Your server
is sending an HTTP header that tells browsers to use the ISO-8859-1
character set, hence the mismatch. You can fix it by changing the line in
your HTML to charset=iso-8859-1. However I always recommend instead using
utf-8 because it's broader. ISO-8859-1 is actually a subset of utf-8. You'll
have to talk to your server admin to change the HTTP header I believe.
