RobotChallenge Vienna 2008 | roderik.net

http://www.roderik.net/2008/05/25/robotchallenge-vienna-2008/

Already more than a month ago, finally I've got the photo's of the RobotChallenge on my web site. The robotchallenge in Vienna is an international event where teams compete in different challenges. Chaekith Chandranna and I participated in the Parallel Slalom and Enhanced Parallalel Slalom challenges. The robotchallenge was a very nice experience. No prizes

Mucht thanks for any suggestions.

Use css to align images. Either text-align: left, or float: left;

Your site is much more accessible when all your stylesheets are turned
off.

There is no excuse for the main content not being able to squeeze
tighter when the browser window width is reduced.

Use 4.01 Strict doctype, get rid of align="" in favour of CSS. For an
example of floating pics left and right:

<http://netweaver.com.a u/alt/floatleftFloatr ight.html>

See what happens when you play about with the browser size and compare
with yours. You need to get this kind f flexibility into your pages if
you want to jump in class.

It is, but it can be overridden in CSS.

http://www.roderik.net/2008/05/25/ro...e-vienna-2008/

There are 6 markup errors reported by a validator. You didn't do you
homework before posting.

If you switch stylesheets off, e.g. using a Tantek favelet (
http://tantek.com/favelets/ ), you'll see that IE applies align="right"
as defined.

Thus, the problem is in CSS, not HTML. Hence it is off-topic in this
group. Moreover, you should do your homework by using the available
tools for checking the syntactic correctness of your HTML and CSS before
asking for help in public.

I validate the page quite often. The 6 errors are in javascript of which
I was aware. It is a matter of adding a CDATA statement but the
javascript is automatically generated so that is a time consuming code
change. However it seemed to be quite unlikely to me that that
javascript (I mean provided by Google) was related to the image placement.

If you switch stylesheets off, e.g. using a Tantek favelet (
http://tantek.com/favelets/ ), you'll see that IE applies align="right"
as defined.

I use web developer tootlbar.

The problem might be interrelated but it surely had to with HTML since
it concerns a HTML style (or align in this case) attribute.

Hence it is off-topic in this

group. Moreover, you should do your homework by using the available
tools for checking the syntactic correctness of your HTML and CSS before
asking for help in public.

You shouldn't assume that I didn't.

The problem is not only with the right aligned, but also with the left
alligned images.

Remove align="left" Attribute
Add float:left; Property

Example for your first instance:

<img height="99" border="2" width="99" alt=""
style="padding: 5px; margin-right: 5px; float:left;"
src="http://www.roderik.net/lib/img/thumbtesttrack. JPG" />
Already more than a month ago,..........

Astually, I prefer this structure:

<img height="99" border="2" width="99" alt=""
style="padding: 5px; margin-right: 5px; float:left;"
src="http://www.roderik.net/lib/img/thumbtesttrack. JPG" />

The usual cluelessness indicators are "on", but...

Remove align="left" Attribute
Add float:left; Property

.... that's no excuse for giving clueless "advice". Your personal, or
even the W3C's, preference for CSS formatting as opposite to HTML
formatting has nothing to do with the problem.

I prefer CSS floating also (and use it quite often) but in this case I
prefer not to change the HTML because it is automatically generated. And
I wondered why the behaviour of the align is like this in internet
explorer when I know that internet explorer supports it.

It's up to you of course, but look (with any other browser other than
IE) at how the subsequent text runs into the image above when the
paragraph is not enough to clear the image. To remedy that, you have to
include a clear such as:

and alternating:

or for all simply:


else include a clearing div.

Even if you wish to use a stylesheet instead of the inline style, you
still will have to change the html to include a clearing div or add a
class/id to the aragraph. What I'm saying is that you will have to
change the html anyway.

I believe that it's you that is clueless! Indicative by not being able
to produce a cure but only to call everyone clueless.

Your issue is within your global reset.
