  • I think it might be something to do with inline-block, its not supported in firefox.

    If you put a 1px border on new_story you'll see its top left corner is actually at the top left corner of the video box.
    IE appears to be trying to push the content as far right as possible to fit inside this box.

    You shouldnt use inline-block for floats anyway, as block and float takes it out of out of the flow of the docume...

  • I taught myself HTML from books, but mainly from doing every single tutorial on the w3schools site.
    http://www.w3schools.c om/html/default.asp

    Once you start to get the hang of html then start looking at CSS;
    http://www.w3schools.c om/css/default.asp

    CSS lets you control the look and layout of an HTML document, HTML defines the meaning (semantics) of the content.

    replied to autoscroll iframe
    If you can find an id or location within that page to link to, you can load to that direct spot on the page
    eg
    http://fileho.com/#smc
    will show the footer rather than the top of the page.

    You will need to look in the source of the page for anchors with names, or elements with IDs to link to EG
    [HTML]<a name="something ">
    <div id="somethingel se">[/HTML]

  • I would just tell the client that the browser is 8 years old and get over it personally, If its good enough for yahoo (to not support it) its good enough for the rest of the world too.

    googling "target ie5mac" gave me this stylesheet hack
    Code:
    <style type="text/css">
    \/*
    @import("stylesheet.css");
    */
    </style>

    Mozilla is actually doing exactly what you are asking it to do

  • First thing
    I think you use too many divs, too many IDs when you should be using classes.
    Remember, an ID is for a single element on a page, and classes are for multiple elements.

    There is no height set on the main nav anchors. except on hover.
    Add
    Code:
    #navcontainer ul li a {
    	height: 35px; 
    }
    Also remove the following height declaration, its adding 30pxs of unclickable element above...

    How about this?

    Just be aware that copying the text will still give you the original capitalisation.

    [HTML]<html>
    <head>
    <style type="text/css" media="screen">
    p.gimmecaps { text-transform:lower case; }
    p.gimmecaps:fir st-letter { text-transform:upper case; }

    replied to Reload frame in main page
    Yea i very much doubt this is possible.

    The only way I can think of is to have launched the initial page yourself, so you know the window name (as you set it yourself) and then refernce that from child windows you spawn from it.

    If the iframe needs to reload after viewing content from a link in that page, what is wrong with simply loading the content INTO the iframe, and providing a <- back link from that content....

    replied to Mozilla HTML parser in Python?
    There is no <p /> shorthand.
    In all things you are better off using standards compliant source.

    If you are trying to add some extra information, you could try using XHTML and namespace tags. eg

    <custom:p> </custom:p>
    <custom:p />

    This way html parsers should hopefully ignore the name-spaced tags.

    Ugly hack though.
    Im sure there is a better way...

    replied to Which loads faster?
    Also

    If you remove IMG tags and replace them with a css rule that applies in multiple places, your html code will decrease in size by n X <img> tags and css increases by 1 css declaration.

    So good for markup weight as well.

  • In your
    /usr/tmp/uploads
    example.

    2 options.
    You could move that folder into
    /var/www/html/uploads/

    Or
    create a symlink from
    /var/www/html/uploads/
    to
    /usr/tmp/uploads

    That should work.

    I dont know where my brain was last week. :D

  • for security, most webservers are configured not to access files that are outside of the documentroot.
    therefore a web served file CANT access resources that are outside of the document root.

    eg
    root
    /
    documentroot
    /var/www/html/

    so if a file tries to access
    [HTML]href="/"[/HTML]
    it gets
    /var/www/html/
    not
    /

    this means there...

    replied to content in iframe flicker on load
    I think the reason you dont see the 'flash' when viewing a page normally, outside of an iframe, is that the previous page is displayed by firefox, until it is ready to display the new page.
    You'll notice that the old page is no longer clickable, and sometimes flash content will freeze, but sound will still play.

    When inside the iframe, as soon as the browser begins to loads the data, it replaces the content of the iframe with...

    In any case, you dont need to optimise your css, although if CSS was your targeted search term, for when people search for css, you would hope that your targeted css search term, css css css, or css css, or various css permutations of saying css or cascading css or other css type things for css lovers your keywords would be relevant to css and your css targets would be reached by using css.
