2009-03-11 Thread Ray Costanzo
Hi list, I'm trying to overlay an iFrame on top of some content in a page, and make it such that the iFrame is actually kinda woven in, on top of some elements and under others. I put up a sample page that contains an iFrame with a z-index of 10 overlaid on top of two buttons, one with a z-ind

[css-d] Textbox width affect by its value length

2008-09-24 Thread Ray Costanzo
Hi list, I'm attempting to use a percentage width property on a textbox within a table cell. Oddly, the width of this textbox is affected by the length of its value when viewed in IE6 or IE7. Can anyone explain why this is or offer a work-around? Note that I am bound to the table structure that

[css-d] Textarea padding and scrolling

2008-02-29 Thread Ray Costanzo
Hi list, I'm trying to display some text that appears at the bottom right of a textarea, but the text is not part of the content of the textarea. This works fine, but the problem is that in IE, that when you are typing at the bottom of the textbox, it doesn't scroll in the same way that firefox

[css-d] Simulating IE's "disabled" look

2008-02-21 Thread Ray Costanzo
Hi list, IE allows for the nonstandard usage of "disabled" in seemingly any html tag. I'm working on cleaning up of some html and trying to eliminate anything I find that deviates from standards. Is there a way that I can still get that same "disabled" look on an tag, for instance? Right now I

2007-02-09 Thread Ray Costanzo
Great post. Thank you very much Sophie. Sadly, doing things by ID is a pain when dealing with generated elements from asp.net, since the IDs are made up on the fly. I can generate my CSS programmatically and do everything by ID, but that's far from ideal. If nothing else, though, I have less fea

[css-d] No inline styles - too idealistic?

2007-02-09 Thread Ray Costanzo
Hi list, I'm currently converting a site from an old programming platform to something current, and while I'm at it, I'm doing my best to clean up the CSS usage and lack of CSS usage. In theory, I'd like to have no inline style anywhere. But, is this just too idealistic? Some of the quandaries

Hi list, I have a div that contains two spans, each with a floating attribute set. There is no line-break in IE7 or Firefox 2.0.0.1 unless I have some other content in the div outside of the floating spans. Can anyone explain to me why this is works this way, and/or a better way to get it to beha
