Re: [css-d] Image caption, content width issue in IE

2011-03-01 Thread G.Sørtun
Without provoking any irritation, am I correct in my impression that hacking the style sheet is best option, and lack of CSS validation probably won't present me with major problems? I'd say you're correct. Lack of CSS validity doesn't cause major problems in browsers - as long as you know w

[css-d] Image caption, content width issue in IE

2011-03-01 Thread Keith Purtell
I'm looking at my most recent screen BrowserCam captures. In IE5.2 on MacOSX 10.4, the image caption moves to the right and displaces the article text. I can't figure out why. http://www.keithpurtell.com/kthings/captures/84.jpg The next three captures are IE6 and IE8 on Windows machines with 800x6

Re: [css-d] Target Safari, but not Chrome?

2011-03-01 Thread G.Sørtun
Is there a way to target Safari, but not Chrome? No anywhere-near-reliable ways to target Safari but not Chrome in CSS, I'm afraid. Doesn't pay off to solve text-related deviations via browser-targeting anyway, since actual text size/appearance depends on settings in each user's browser/OS

2011-03-01 Thread Barney Carroll
Hello list, I'm (painfully) aware of RTL text behaving badly in software in general, and especially in HTML documents styled with CSS in IE7. I'm also aware that changing text direction causes a new rendering context for IE. What I was previously unaware of is hasLayout (the immediate effect bein
