CSS - Making A Website That Works In The Blackberry
I'm creating home and inside page templates for a client. I know that they work on the major desktop browsers and on the iPhone. And they validate at CSS Level 2 and XHTML 1.0 Transitional. But I'm still trying to make them work on the Blackberry.
The problem: I'm trying to enable the visitor to jump past a very long list of links that you'd see in the left column on a desktop browser. My "skip navigation" link works for desktop computer users, but I've had trouble implementing it on the Blackberry. In the handheld.css file, I tried using display: none to hide the link list. But it still showed up. So, I put a visible "skip navigation" link just above the start of the long link list. I'm not sure that this "skip navigation" link: 1. Can even be seen in the Blackberry. Client has told me that several previous "skip link" techniques that I've tried are not visible on his Blackberry. I've tried several Blackberry emulators, but none of them seem to be as accurate in their rendering as the Blackberry itself. 2. Gets the visitor past the link list and into the page's copy. A colleague suggested that the root problem may be in how I coded the link to the handheld.css file in the XHTML. I used this code: <link href="css/handheld.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="handheld" /> She suggested making a change to media="mobile". The "skip navigation" link code goes like this: <p>[ <a href="#skip">skip navigation</a> ]</p> and <a name="skip"></a> Similar TutorialsHi I have on my website a position fixed information box, with css Code:
#fbookcontainer {width:150px;border:1px solid silver;background-color:white;font-size:70%;line-height:100%;position:fixed;left:1px;top:115px;z-index:0;-moz-box-shadow: 1px 3px 3px #888;-webkit-box-shadow: 1px 3px 3px #888;box-shadow: 1px 3px 3px #888;}
On my Android, it does not show up at all, no big deal. However, on a friend's Blackberry, this box floats across the screen when the screen is scrolled horizontally. Furthermore, I cannot get rid of it by using Code: div#fbookcontainer {display:none;}
Thanks for any wisdom on this. Best wishes Tony Website not showing how i want it to be on other PCs but when I open using my laptop everything appears fine. What is the problem? Hey all i want to create a simple horizontal navigation for my page spanning the container div (735px) i want to use a UL and float them to the left: Navigation Code: <div id="container"> <ul> <li>home</li> <li>nav2</li> <li>nav3</li> <li>nav4<li> <li>nav5<li> </ul> </div> CSS Code:
#container{width:735px}
ul {width:100%; height:35px; }
li{width:149px; float:left}
The problem im having / i dont know how to do are the following: 1. Within each li i want to put a link but i want it to be the whole block of 149 x 35 clickable for the link not just the words e.g HOME 2. how do i get the text of the nav to be positioned in the middle vertically. i tried: vertical-align or what ever it was but that didnt waork. For one of my nav items it drops down a line but the others stay at the top. id like them in the middle of the block?? thanks i thought i had finally gotten my design to where i wanted it, but then i tried it in internet explorer. he http://beta.bikerevolution.org/xindex.php any ideas on how to fix this would be great. I am VERY new at this, and I need all the help I can get. I am trying to make a table that looks like this: I am VERY new at this, and I need all the help I can get. I am trying to make a table that looks like this: http://i78. photobucket.com/albums/j108/l8org8or/HELP.jpg (take out the spaces before "photobucket") I need the table width to be 563, and I want everything to be centered. font size 14 and 9 Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. I need the table width to be 563, and I want everything to be centered. font size 14 and 9 Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. http://m2-klan.com/nuked.html How would I go about making this page all Css/div? My friend has been saying something that I can make that from all Css with less graphics, how would I go about doing that? I am a newbie at Css and I would like to know how to do that, instead of tables. Sometimes CSS makes me want to tear my hair out. I'm trying to make a custom form input that is a combination of a regular select drop down and a multiple select. I have the javascript all sorted out and my input works like a charm. I can't figure out any way to make it display like a <select> does though. I thought I could simply do this: <ul style="display: inline"> According to w3schools, this will tell the element to display without a line break before or afterward. Much to my despair, it's not that simple. Here's an example: Code: <div> This is some text <select name="test"> <option value="">Click to expand</option> <option value="1">One</option> <option value="2">Two</option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </div> <hr /> <div> This is some text <ul name="test" style="display: inline;"> <li>Click to expand</li> <ul style="display: none;"> <li value="1">One</li> <li value="2">Two</li> </ul> </ul> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </div> Notice how the regular old html input sits nicely inline with the text before it and the submit button after it? Notice how the ul doesn't, despite the fact it's set to display inline? Anybody have any suggestions? Hi, How common it is these days to make a web pages using only css and not using tables? And what are the pros and cons of that? Thanks Hi, I have attached 2 files code. I want the page to look like the second one.with both navigation boxes on the left on top of each other. But the 1st one I am trying to look the same with out putting the <divs> with in a <div> and it does not work, what am i doing technically wrong here? wrong one Code:
<html>

Hi, I am editing a dynamically driven site and I don't have access to edit the HTML code, just the CSS. I have a <div> with content in it within a <td> tag. When the div stretches past the width of the <td> tag it makes the table cell wider. Is there any way in CSS to have it not stretch the width of the cell? The <div> has an id="mylinks" on it, however the <td> or the <table> doesn't have any id or class on them. I'm pully my hair out trying to figure out a fix, any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance i have this site here and am looking for a solution to my css for resizing the window i need the .swf to appear underneath the main content box. any ideas?! i need to it to behave exactly like the .jpg on this page here anyone!? How can I make the <th> on the right hand side align everything inside it to the right? I already have a class which applies to all my <th> [html] <thead> <tr> <th scope="col" class="twentyfive">STATUS</th> <th scope="col" class="twentyfive">VIEW</th> <th scope="col" class="twentyfive">DOWNLOAD</th> <th scope="col" class="twentyfive">TOTAL</th> </tr> </thead>[/html] Do I need to add something like this? [css] table.main thead tr th.twentyfive { /*border: 1px solid #fff;*/ width: 25%; } table.main thead tr th.twentyfive.right { /*border: 1px solid #fff;*/ width: 25%; float: right; }[/css] Can someone point me to a tutorial that shows how you can use css borders, shadows, or whatever to make div's look 3D, or sunken in or something. Basically I want this div to look like a button, but only when the mouse is over it, and when it's depressed I want it to look like its sunken in. I know how to do all of this except the lighting and stuff, it looks kinda funny. So is there a tutorial that shows you the best way to make stuff look 3D? Thanks I was just wondering if there was a standard that most people use. Or do you just use each as the circumstances require? Ok, firstly, here is the link: www.mstrgaming.com/stars Now, if you look at the website in FF, then in IE, you'll notice that the absolutely poistioned #topbar (the horizontal bar right at the top) goes over the top of the floated logo & menu (whereas it doesn't in FF, which is the desired look). I'd welcome any suggestions as to why it does this, and more importantly how to prevent it. Also, the floated logo & menu is spaced away from the left side of the page, whereas in firefox, it isn't. I welcome any suggestions! The website is reletively simple so I don't think you should have any concerns with the code, but if you do by all means let me know . Thanks! Edit - how odd, I edited the title of this thread because I missed a word, and it won't change, oh well well i sort of know why, because they render things differently but i have looked in my code and cant figure out why it will be different for ff click here I have pulled my last hair so I come to you with a red face. these tags are in the head section Code:
h3 {color: blue}
pink {color: blue}
In the body I have Code: <h3> what color is it? </h3><BR> <pink> it should be blue </pink> both lines print in blue on FF. IE6 shows h3 in blue but pink is plain, black text. Please embarass me with a simple answer. Thanks in advance, stujo NEWB here. Working on a project that has a custom ul w/ background images and sub menus the css currently in place works for all browsers except IE when using the IE developer tool, I can see all the applied styles for the items. For some reason IE is just randomly throwing in a padding-top from somewhere that's screwing up the alignment. There is NO source css file referenced or noted as to where it's coming from. As soon as it's removed, it display properly. I have explicitly set the style in the UL and the li to have the correct padding, but IE just seems to ignore them and throws in a padding of it's own. ANY IDEAS here? Anyone? Beuller? I was wondering if there was anyway to make a div appear at the bottom of the monitor. In other words, on my laptop, I have a site that I need to scroll down for. It goes as far down as a copyright notice. The copyright notice has a black border on top, right, and left, but not the bottom. That's fine because when it gets to that item, it stops scrolling and lines up with the bottom of the monitor. However, at home, I have a 21" monitor, and the bottom element is just floating there because everything easily fits within the screen. I wanted to see if I could get that bottom element to line up at the bottom of the viewable area somehow. Is this possible? Thanks. |
