CSS - Theory /methodology Question - Browser Dection : Good / Bad Idea ?
Quoted from a recent post
" Using a server-side language or JavaScript to send different stylesheets to different browsers is a bad practice. It tends to cause more problems than it solves. " Enlighten me on "why this is considered a bad practice " -- or even better yet, what would u suggest is a work around. Specifically ive found that the use of absolute positioning tends to vary on how it works ( or doesn't) , ive narrowed my specific problem down to what seems to be the different browser's assigning a different "meter value" ( for lack of a better term) or size increment for "1px" My test page is essentially "displaying correctly" except offset values seem to produce a varying range of "what 1px really means". IE6 (win) and FF1/2 (win) displays the test page fine - but on IE5.2(mac), Safari (not sure version, but oddly enough this browser gives the closest true values) , and FF1 (mac) seem to "define 1px as either larger or smaller" then whatever their windows counterpart decides. How would you suggest I work around this situation if not with Browser Dection via the use of serverSide / Javascript coding ( which until reading the quoted statement above, i was going to implement). Do Share please ! edit: heres the CSS file, its been validated. The issue is inspecific to my file but related to browser detection. anyway... Code:
#totalcontents {
z-index : 7;

Similar Tutorialsfor my website, i'm going to be using some css for every page in it, would it be advisable to store the css for each page in their own file? or even better in the actual page itself? if i put it all into one css file i'll end up putting bit spacers: /*-=-=-=-=-=-=---=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-*/ to block things apart Actually I had 4 files named the same as they were importing: Code: CSS @import "header.css"; @import "menu.css"; @import "content.css"; @import "footer.css"; It took me a half hour to figure out why IE was loading and Firefox wasn't. Hahaha, I am dumb. D-U-M-B, I mean D-U-N-C-E Off to the corner with me... Picture What if someone only had two middle fingers? Would they raise both and then go piss on their shoe? GEOGRAPHY :P I'm bored, at least I'm getting paid for this post :P Hahahaha... I find that I'm constantly running into conflicts with css and how it displays in internet explorer and mozzilla,let alone the rest of the browsers. Does anybody know a good trusted up to date css tutorial site where one can learn css that is cross browser friendly? Thanks Does anyone have any idea what could be happening to my main menu - it dissappears in Safari! Hobo I've noticed that now that I separate markup and presentation that my CSS files are significantly larger. For instance just one of my pages worth of presentation declarations is 300 lines long. Given an extremely large site, do you think you'd ever have to get to the point where you'd preload the CSS file? -B I was working on a site today and I noticed a weird bug in IE 7. Couldn't find anything similar on the net, so I'll post here. PseudoCSS: Code: #topdiv{
width:960px;
}
#bottomdiv{
float: left;
margin-left:15px;
width: 300px;
}
.previous a{
background: url('images/previous.png') no-repeat;
}
.previous a:hover {
background-position:0 -62px;
}
PseudoHTML: Code: <div id="topdiv"><a href="" class="previous">Link</a></div> <div id="bottomdiv">Content</div> When rolling over the image in topdiv, bottomdiv loses it's 15px margin-left and butts up against the left border of the parent div (Only in IE7). I removed the margin-left of bottomdiv and replaced it with relative positioning, left:15px. This fixed the issue and works cross browser. I guess my question is: is relative positioning "safer" than margins on floated elements? Let's say I have three div elements Code: <div id="container1></div> <div id="container2></div> <div id="container3></div> with the styling Code:
#container1 {
margin:1;
padding:10;
}
#container2 {
margin:2;
padding:10;
}
#container3 {
margin:3;
padding:10;
}
would it be better to combine the id's like this for the padding. Code:
#container1, #container2, #container3 {
padding:10;
}
or would it be better to make a class for the padding and add it to the div element like this? Code:
.container-padding{
padding:10;
}
#container1 {
margin:1;
padding:10;
}
#container2 {
margin:2;
padding:10;
}
#container3 {
margin:3;
padding:10;
}
<div id="container1" class="container-padding"></div>
<div id="container2" class="container-padding"></div>
<div id="container3" class="container-padding"></div>
Which way would the browser process better? Okay, I'm about 6 steps into an effort to redo a section of my site... And while I swear I started out using a DIV/CSS based layout that worked in ALL browsers suddenly that is no longer the case. What I'm trying for is a navigation bar that stays fixed to the left... to the right of it are esentially 4 stacked areas: 1) the top header should stay glued to the top. 2) a middle content area that should flex reletive to the things around it 3) the second-from the bottom thing stays glued to the bottom, but has a bottom margin to place it above the footer. 4) the bottom footer should stay glued to the bottom. It works in all of my Mac browsers (Safari, Firefox, IE) as well as Firefox for windows. But IE 6.x for Windows insists on displaying all of the right-side elements way down the page... below the end of the left navigation. I simply can not force it to float/wrap to the right. Here is what I've got: http://digipix.jeffntom.com/TEMPLATE_UI-5.php Ignore the whiz-bang JavaScript stuff displaying the images, etc... and help me figure out what's up with my DIV/CSS? Here is the Div structu html4strict Code: Original - html4strict Code <div id="leftnav"> ...leftnav stuff... </div> <div id="rightbody"> <div id="header"> 1) Right-Top: ...header area... </div> <div id="content"> 2) Right-Middle: ...large image area... </div> <div id="thumbnails"> 3) Right-Lower: ....image thumbnail area... </div> <div id="footer"> 4) Right-Bottom: ...footer area... </div> </div> <div id="leftnav"> Here is the CSS: css Code: Original - css Code #leftnav { margin: 0; padding: 0; position: fixed; top:0px; width: 200px; bottom: 1px; // this locks the div to the browser bottom (minus 1px) float: left; background:#cccccc; valign: bottom; } /* this is a container that holds everything except the left navitation */ #rightbody { /* width: 100%; */ } #header { position: fixed; top: 0px; margin-left: 212px; margin-right: 0px; background: #ffffff; } #content { margin-top: 60px; margin-left: 212px; margin-right: 0px; background: #ffffff; } #thumbnails { position: fixed; bottom: 51px; margin-left: 210px; margin-right: 10px; background: #ffffff; } #footer { position: fixed; bottom: 0px; margin-left: 200px; margin-right: 10px; background: #ffffff; }
Im not a newbie to CSS but I am still a bit new to hand coding and div positioning. heres the link - http://members.cox.net/tekjock/test/ the body section I want it to be bottom 5px Left 5px right 5px I can get it to look good in firefox but IE it looks like crap. I have tried the above and it does not work. Any suggestions Thanks I am trying to get my container to be 100% the height of the browser window but have so far been unsuccessful, and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Thanks for any help.

Ok here is my problem: .leftmenu { font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:12px; color:#444444; text-decoration:underline; } .leftmenu:link,.leftmenu:visited { font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:12px; color:#FFFFFF; text-decoration:underline; } .leftmenu:hover,.leftmenu:active { font-family:Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:12px; color:#F22222; text-decoration:underline; } I already have an a:link ect section (which works) However, i want to call the leftmenu class from the start of a table insert. <td width="70px" background="img/topbar.gif" class="leftmenu"> the leftmenu class itself works for text, BUT it doesnt get applied to links. Is there anyway to do this short of coding it into each link? I know css but have never tried anything like this before, and its been wrecking my head all morning..... B Thanks for reading, I have no idea what I'm doing as far as CSS goes and I just purchased this code for a bigcartel store. My main issue is that when I click checkout button with something in the cart nothing is happening. This is the checkout page code.where is says ---- is where my site goes but this is my first post so I cant post with it in there. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "(----)"> <html xmlns="(----)"> <head> <title>{{ store.name }} — One moment...</title> <style type="text/css"> body { margin: 100px; text-align: center; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #666; } h3 { padding: 50px; border: solid 1px #ddd; background-color: #f8f8f8; width: 300px; font-size: 18px; } </style> <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> function checkout() { if(top != self) { top.location.replace(self.location.href); } else { document.checkout_form.submit(); } } </script> {{ head_content}} </head> <body onload="checkout();"> <div align="center" style="margin:20px;"> <h3>One moment...</h3> </div> {% checkoutform %} <noscript> <input type="submit" value="Checkout" /> </noscript> {% endcheckoutform %} </body> </html> Anyone see anything wrong with it? The checkout button is supposed to take your paypal account so you can pay for the t-shirts. Here's the actual site add the www and com to it naffleskell.bigcartel Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!! Ok, this may be asking too much, but I have this design idea - http://tmh.netdbs.com/turnkey2.jpg But insofar as laying it out with CSS, I just am not sure where to begin breaking it apart and creating various divs so to speak, the main white area is where I will lay out various <P> tags and won't have a problem with that, but it is getting started that challenges me. I'd appreciate some feedback on how to approach this. TOm I haven't figured out how to align the <div> tag to be center for the Mozilla browser.. I know I'm missing something here but I can't remember which. This one work in IE but not Mozilla. Code:
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div>
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
body {font-family:Verdana;
font-size:10pt;
font-weight:normal;
color:black;}

font-weight:bold;
color:black;
width: 625px;

}

font-weight:normal;

.cTradeLines TD

I know the codes isn't w3.org compliant with the way the <style> tag are inserted. It's the way the web page is created via the 3rd party website when receiving it and I'm encapsulating it with a <div> tag. I don't wanna do a lot of screen scraping and moving around the tags with PHP because they are never the same from the 3rd party website. Thanks.. I've been trying to figure out how I can use css to make one side of the body one color and the other side another color. For example: if I want the entire left 70% of the page to be white and the right 30% to be black. no margins. it needs to stretch the entire length of the page regardless if there's any content in a div or not. And it need to be fluid. I've been trying everything I know and apparently that's not very much because I can't figure it out. The link below is what I've tried using a bg image. Hopefull this will illustrate the idea. But I don't want to use a bg image if I don't have to plus the division where the color changes needs to be fluid with the text and I haven't figured out how to do it with the offset percentages. Basically the left side needs to be white as wide or wider as the left column and the right side color can go from that point all th eway right regardless of how wide the browser is. Does that make sense? I think I could do it if it were 50/50 but that's not what I'm after. http://sonicparke.com Has anybody done this or know how it should be done? I've tried to insert a horizontal drop down CSS menu in my layout. However, the menu bar displays about 10 pixels lower in Firefox than it does in IE. <a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)">Link</a> I checked the margins, padding but can not seem to find a way to get the menu to display at the same position in both browsers. Any guidance is very appreciated. thanks. My first post.... ok... First I would like to say THANK YOU to anyone who has time to bestow some knowledge to me on what I am sure is a highly noob-esqe situation. I would also like to say that I have thoroughly search this and other forums for my issue, unfortunately I dont think I understand CSS or any web design enough to comprehend the solutions given. I think this may require someone with the knowledge I lack to come down to my level... if you can bend that low.. and walk me thru layman term-style. Again thanks in advance for anytime spent helping out. That being said I was recently trying to jazz up my website that is hosted by a certain music community. I do a decent amount of business thru this site so I wanted to step up the interface a little and get away from using the standard page setup they give you. They do offer the option to edit CSS to construct your own for a little more customization. I jumped in, and after a few days of struggling, I got it looking how I wanted it. I was excited until I realized it looked different on almost every computer i visited the site on. My Background is fine, but the links to paypal and other content is all over the place(e.g. song player, twitter link, buttons) I have tweaked and tweaked, but have not been able to remedy this apparently common problem due to my lack of knowledge and experience. My only hope is to post the coding here and have a Smart Guy/Girl guide me in the right direction.

I've mucked up my css a bit. Works great in IE but not in FireFox. Submenus are not under their main menu item. and I can't seem to get it centered. Here is the site. Causeway Lighitng And here is the css (it the nav2 portion that controls the top menu) Code: #nav, #nav ul {
margin: auto; /* centres the nav */
padding: 0;
list-style: none; /* removes the bullets */
width: 100%;
}
#nav2, #nav2 ul {
margin: auto; /* centres the nav */
padding: 0;
list-style: none; /* removes the bullets */
width: 135px;
}
#nav li, #nav {
