CSS - Css Sprites
Trying to figure how how to turn my nav bar into where if you hover over one of the parts of the nav bar it turns into the highlighted version of that part.

I'm not sure if this is a simple fix, or just something I can't fix, but an extensive search online produces no meaningful results.

Unexpected IE6 Expected IE7 and FF3 Obviously the FF3 one isn't 100% how I would like it, but that isn't issue i'm trying to deal with. Clearly IE6 is expanding the entire H1's height past what I specified in the CSS, as where IE7 and FF3 listen to me and wrapped text flow outside the height I specified. Anyhow, thanks very much for any help! So, I have an app that allows the user to select images from a list of thumbnails. The thumbnails have an 'on' and 'off' state, but also have a drop shadow. I can get the drop shadow to render nicely in IE6 using a PNG hack, but I can't seem to find a hack that will allow me to use a PNG sprite so I can have the on and off state in the same image. Any suggestions would be great. Hello, I'm having an issue with sprites. I have a few images on my hompage (not a menu), and when a user hover over those images, the image will swap with another one. Here is the HTML Code: <table width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td align="center"> <a id="sw_sN_facebook" href="social-networking.php"></a> </td> <td align="center"> <a id="sw_sN_myspace" href="social-networking.php"></a> </td> <td align="center"> <a id="sw_sN_flickr" href="social-networking.php"></a> </td> <td align="center"> <a id="sw_sN_twitter" href="social-networking.php"></a> </td> </tr> </table> And here is the CSS Quote: #sw_sN_facebook, a#sw_sN_facebook, a#sw_sN_facebook:link, a#sw_sN_facebook:visited, a#sw_sN_facebook:active{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) 0 0 no-repeat; width: 101px; height: 20px; } a#sw_sN_facebook:hover{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) 0 -20px no-repeat; } #sw_sN_myspace, a#sw_sN_myspace, a#sw_sN_myspace:link, a#sw_sN_myspace:visited, a#sw_sN_myspace:active{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) -101px 0 no-repeat; width: 78px; height: 20px; } a#sw_sN_myspace:hover{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) -101px -20px no-repeat; } #sw_sN_flickr, #sw_sN_flickr a, #sw_sN_flickr a:link, #sw_sN_flickr a:visited, #sw_sN_flickr a:active{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) -179px 0 no-repeat; width: 72px; height: 20px; } #sw_sN_flickr a:hover{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) -179px -20px no-repeat; } #sw_sN_twitter, #sw_sN_twitter a, #sw_sN_twitter a:link, #sw_sN_twitter a:visited, #sw_sN_twitter a:active{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) -251px 0 no-repeat; width: 86px; height: 20px; } #sw_sN_twitter a:hover{ background:url(../images/logo-social.png) -251px -20px no-repeat; } For a better understanding, here is the homepage: www.lightblu.com The problem: Nothing displays. Now I've tried many different codes, and the best result I had was to display all the images like they should, but they're not hyperlinked, and they don't swap images on mouse over. Please help Thanks Dear Friends I implemented the css sprites in my application.css sprites working well in all browser except IE 6 and IE 7.I cannot know i do it .Please Help me.......... My CSS File .follow_us_blogger { background: no-repeat url('/design/csssprites/follow_us.png') 0 0px; width: 100px; height: 31px;} MY HTML page <div class="follow_us_blogger"><div> Hi guys I have been reading about sprites and CSS. The fact you can load an image that contains all the state the image can have on hovers is excactly what i am looking for. also the fact that you can do it without javascript makes it even better. But i have a problem that i need to create a menu, where the text turn blue on hover. Here it is (danish text): As far as I know, I need to map all areas the with polygon to make the links work. And then apply sprite functionality. But I haven't seen any 'sprites and maps' tutorials, so I am beginning to think that it cant be done with CSS. But before I give up, I would like to ask you if it can be done, and maybe give me some tutorial link or suggestions. I have tried to do some tutorials, so I think I have the basic idea. Thanks in advance In my website (geotool.flagfox.net) I have a drop-down menu which allows people to change to locale of the website. If you look at this menu you can see that I have placed flags next to each country, but as I now have 35 different languages I don't really want to load 35 separate images (especially as most visitors never even look at this menu). Is there a way of using CSS sprites for this? I've made a small test website to make it easier to look at this: test.rleeden.no-ip.com. You can see that I can successfully use a CSS sprite image in the main body, but I've not been able to achieve the same affect in the select menu. Or alternatively somehow make it that the images are only downloaded if the menu is shown?? Any advice or help most welcome. Richard Hi I have been making a world map with hover tooltip effects using css sprites. it works fine on ff and chrome but in ie and opera it is messed up. everything checks out to be valid xhtml and i get no errors listed anywhere. i have heard some issues with older versions of those browsers but my ie is 7 and my opera is 9. i based my map on this tutorial so css is the same except for positioning. http://www.alistapart.com/articles/sprites also the master image is 800 wide and 1224 tall, maybe that is a problem? i ma stuck and dont know what is wrong could anybody take a look and offer some advice to what is wrong or offer a suggestion? thanks, the map i ma referring to can be found at: travelmagoo.com I can't see it working (and in practice it hasn't). Surely the background position needs to be fixed as the image is not scalable. I hope I am right on this or it's back to the drawing board. In the past year or two I've been playing with CSS layout techniques, and have grown to the point where I consistently use CSS instead of tables. I'm all for it. But as much as I love them, some of the trendy practices seem to be a little impractical - particularly sliding doors, sprites and the suckerfish dropdowns. With sprites, I can see the benefits of having fewer HTTP requests and having all rollover images in one file. With suckerfish dropdowns, it's definitely nice to have the navigation and subnavigation organized into lists. Sliding doors can certainly save a lot of bandwidth and load time, and make editing graphical navigation much easier. I'm sure all of these are terrific from SEO and accessibility standpoints, too. But the code for these techniques seems extremely convoluted and bloated. My personal experience with suckerfish dropdowns and sprites both are that they require hacks to get them to work smoothly in browsers as recent as IE6. After all is said and done, there's actually more code required to attain the same functionality that could be achieved using HTML and JavaScript. I'm curious to see what input everyone has. I'd love to justify styling unordered lists into sliding door dropdown nav tabs with sprite backgrounds, just because I have so much fun doing it. But is it really practical? I am working on a website for a client and I am having trouble following A List Apart's tutorial (I can't link yet). I have a working css dropdown menu using a css sprite. But what I am trying to do, is when you mouse over a dropdown and go down the dropdown, that the parent menu remains at it's hover state. Currently what is happening is as soon as I mouseout of the parent level it goes back to the normal state. I don't really want to post the link to the test site itself if I don't have to for client privacy. Please help! I'm getting way too frustrated now, I've look at so many examples and nothing seems to work. I don't even need the javascript, I just need it to work. I've experimented with javascript and without. This is the code I am using: javascript: Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
startList = function() {
if (document.all&&document.getElementById) {
menuRoot = document.getElementById("menu");
for (i=0; i<menuRoot.childNodes.length; i++) {
node = menuRoot.childNodes[i];
if (node.nodeName=="LI") {
node.onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=" over";
}
node.onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(" over", "");
}
}
}
}
}
window.onload=startList;
//->

Hi, Instead of organising an image sprite as follows: image image image image image image i'm wondering if there are any negative effects to organising the images in a linear fashion as follows image image image image image image I know that Flash will only render images that are a certain width or height but is there any such limitations when using css sprites? Thanks |
