ok Talisker this time [ remember RLS's poem?] www.WellingtonLive.co.nz ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joseph Harris" Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 11:09 AM Subject: [wdvltalk] RE: basic css!
: Many thanks for all the responses. I've been out, the net's been slow and : there is another matter capturing my attention! I will be looking hard at : all the advice. : : Charles I take the point about the final semi-colon, I put it in from memory : but it is a while since I last wrote some CSS. I had gone between font- : and text-align. As it wasn't working anyway I didn't which was right. : : Thanks Sol for pointing te semi-colon out, too. : : Mark your vote on the s-c clinches it. : : Stephen thank you for that rewrite. I'll put it in and look forward to the : pleasure of seeing it work. I take fully your point about the overuse of : classes. The CSS I showed plus two headers is all I will be using and : will become an external sheet; It is for a specific repetitive type of : content with a set layout covered by a template and using tables. Most : pages will not scroll (the actual content is in each case original and : different). It is for an ebook of poetry. I am in a quandary over type : size. I have noted the discussions which take place and will eventually : apply the preferred form on my site. As a former journalist I am more : comfortable with points and need a quiet hour or two to get round the : relationship to the web forms. : : Kim thank you for the reminder about validation and for the links. I : started to wonder if I had hit the problem of new css/ old browser or new : browser/old css. But th problem appears to be rusty memory combined with : inadequate reading! : : Stephen thanks for the confirmation I had one thing right! : : Tom I don't think I'm going to forget about how many semi-colons are needed : again - thanks. : : And no, if Michael would like to send a virtual glass of the hard stuff I : could have a brief relaxation! : : Thanks all : : Joseph : : : ____ .
