[css-d] wide page: extending element background beyond right edge of window?

2006-10-26 Thread David Feldman
I have a Web page whose content is sometimes wider than the browser window, necessitating a horizontal scrollbar. Several elements fairly high up the DOM tree have horizontally repeating background images. The problem is, when the content is wider than the window these background images sti

[css-d] disappearing content in IE

2006-03-24 Thread David Feldman
I'm having a funny problem in IE with a Web app I'm working on. The CSS is fairly complex overall, but not for this in particular. There are two tabs. (Sort of Mac-selector-style, rather than traditional-style tabs.) Each has a div full of content associated with it. A JavaScript checks whic

[css-d] form unexpectedly submits on Enter

2005-11-22 Thread David Feldman
Typically, a form won't submit when you press the Enter key in a text field unless it has a or . I have a form that is submitting anyway, and it shouldn't. I have looked long and hard at it and can't see any difference between it and a similar form that doesn't exhibit the behavior. Any id

[css-d] problems with tree widget

I'm trying to make a hierarchical tree widget. The tree itself (ultimately embedded in a frame or iframe) is a , each item an , and various elements and controls in each item are left-floated elements. The label itself isn't floated. It works well overall, but (1) When item labels get too lo

[css-d] stuck on IE scrolling/positioning/background/form bug

2005-11-10 Thread David Feldman
I'm working on a Web app for a client, and have a sort of interdependent collection of IE bugs. I think I have a workaround for the worst two, but the whole thing is weird enough that I thought I'd find out if anyone had experience with these. (I'd love to post a link but of course the site

I think it works in IE6, Firefox, and Safari (at least recent versions). I was surprised as well, but came across it working and was curious. --Dave On Oct 26, 2005, at 10:40 , David Dorward wrote: > On 26/10/05, David Feldman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> This may be off-top

[css-d] ids for XHTML radio buttons

2005-10-26 Thread David Feldman
This may be off-topic, for which I apologize, but: In XHTML you're supposed to refer to form elements using id rather than name. Suppose I have a collection of radio buttons, though. Is it acceptable to give them all the same ID and then refer to them as an array using document.getElementBy

I'm creating a number of forms with styled buttons. I've given up on both and elements because of the variable-width padding IE adds to them (as well as the 1px border IE puts around their background images) and am using tags instead, styled with CSS and with href="javascript:..." attrib

[css-d] IE background flicker on a:hover

I've read a bunch of different techniques for dealing with background- image flicker in IE (which seems to occur on elements as well as on other elements when their CSS properties are being modified by JavaScript. Some have worked, some haven't, and some aren't appropriate to all situations

[css-d] centering graphical buttons
