Re: [WSG] 100% height over existing page

That's already what I'm doing. Not the problem here, though. The issue isn't whether the overlay and disclaimer appear - I have that bit working just fine. The issue is making the overlay extend all the way to the bottom of the page if the page is longer than the viewport. Cheers, Seona. 2008/7/

Re: [WSG] 100% height over existing page

Doesn't have to be a separate divert page, you can just use the session variable to decided whether the "overlay" element is displayed on each page regards Luke Seona Bellamy wrote: What, and divert them to the "agreement" page if they'rve not agreed? Hmm... not sure that I'll get the go-ahead

Re: [WSG] 100% height over existing page

What, and divert them to the "agreement" page if they'rve not agreed? Hmm... not sure that I'll get the go-ahead to do that. We're working to some fairly tight design requirements. I've already got it saving the session variable once they agree, so that they only get bothered once. Cheers, Seona

Re: [WSG] 100% height over existing page

Depending on what/whether you're using anything server side, just set a session variable that records whether the person has agreed to the terms, do this across every page and no worries for Google or any other entry that doesn't come from the front page. regards Luke Seona Bellamy wrote: Hm

Re: [WSG] 100% height over existing page

Hmm... not really an option here. It needs to have the potential to appear on any page, so that if someone finds an internal page through Google or gets a link sent to them by a friend, they still see the disclaimer / warning. At the moment I've sort of solved the problem for users with JS - if th

[WSG] 100% height over existing page

Hi guys, I need to create an absolutely positioned div that will float on top of the existing page layout, and be 100% of the height of the rendered page, not the viewport. Something similar to what Lightbox does - greying out the page and displaying a box over it. The trouble is, because it's to

You can also try to set the image to display:block; The default behavior for images is display:inline; and depending on you line-height setting, maybe you are getting some extra space at the top and at the bottom. On Wed, Jul 30, 2008 at 1:09 PM, Tijmen Smit <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thats r
