[css-d] Basic questions about the box model

2017-08-06 Thread Ezequiel Garzón
Greetings to all! I can see I'm not understanding the box model correctly considering this basic example: #green { background-color: green; width: 100px; height: 100px; float: left; } #red { background-color: red; width: 100px; height: 100px; } Green Red I can understand that

You don't explain what you mean with same size -- in a valid HTML5 document I wouldn't get that issue you claim -- nor do you post online code as HTML/CSS. It's pointless to debate what you think happened with a picture. Make it happen in all of our browsers too -- by posting validated

I don't see your issue in Android nor in IOS. Anyone else? Thanks again for your reply. Now I'm really beginning to second-guess myself! And here I was so convinced it had something to do with the font boosting and inflation John Mellor refers to here [1]. I will ask tomorrow a couple of friends

Greetings to all, I can't figure out why a webpage as simple as [2] renders text with uniform size in desktop browsers (which I would expect), but like this [1] in Android browsers such as Chrome, Firefox and (the main version of) Opera. I mean... both P and TD are given font-size: medium! Isn't

This is such a joy! Thank you all for such a lively exchange. First off, my memory betrayed me: it turns out the S and U elements *were* deprecated in HTML 4.01 [1], but they managed to make a comeback in HTML 5. This puzzles me even further, if that is even possible. I get lost with the

Greetings to all, I know this is highly subjective question, but am curious as to what people think about this issue. Allow me to put forth a few questions, and you can pick all of any of them. When the WHATWG describes the I element as a span of text in an alternate voice or mood, and the B

[css-d] Universal selector vs. body selector

2009-10-06 Thread Ezequiel Garzón
Greetings. As you will be able to tell, I'm a CSS rookie. My doubt is, if the body contains all the other containers, why does body { ... } behave different from * { ... }? Aren't properties supposed to cascade? Inheritable properties at least, no? But then I find that body { color:black; } and

Thank you all for your replies! They have taught me a lot in very little time. Is it possible to open the default stylesheet? Are settings such as 'a { color: blue; text-decoration: underline; }' de facto or formal standards? Cheers, Ezequiel
