HTML - Three Pixel Text Jog?
Hello,
Thanks for taking a look at my question. I am in the beginning stages of setting up a site for a client and am running into the three pixel text jog problem with ie. Can anyone please take a look at my code and help me resolve this? Thank you for your time in advance. Thanks, Steve site: http://homepage.mac.com/stephenjames...ogh/index.html css: http://homepage.mac.com/stephenjames...s/ogh/main.css Similar TutorialsOk I know this isn't really a HTML issue, but to avoid complex clientside pixel-counting of fonts I've thought of something far more simple. I need to limit the length of a string to stop it wrapping. The first step is to limit the string's length in characters, using the following php script: PHP Code: function trim_string($string) { $trim_string = '...'; $chars = 55; $chars_adjusted = $chars - strlen($trim_string); if (strlen($string) > $chars) { $string = substr($string,0,$chars_adjusted); $string .= $trim_string; } return $string; } Fine, no problem. Now however the strings are not all of equal length because of differences in length of each character (see the warmdebate.com homepage for my debacle). I thought that a relatively simple solution would be to simple use some sort of CSS or HTML wizardry to stretch the trimmed string to a fixed length (like full alignment, only for a non-wrapped string). Since this doesn't involve pixel counting or anything like that I figure it should be doable in CSS or HTML. Also, if there are any standard solutions to this other than what I'm proposing please let me know! OK, so I have a dynamic table that can be filtered. The full table has just over 250 rows. My problem is that even by setting their display property to 'none', it still causes the rows to take up what seems to be a pixel of space. So, if several consecutive rows are hidden, it causes noticeable white space to appear and it can make it look really bad. In some cases over 100 consecutive rows are hidden and it causes a very large blank space to show. Oddly, I ran into this problem only when working in Firefox. It performs fine in IE. Here are some captures. Take note the number in the SEQ column shows what row it is: Before being filtered: After being filtered in IE: After being filtered in Firefox: I can't find anywhere else online where anyone has even had this particular problem. Can anyone help? I'm stumped. One possible solution I thought of was absolutely positioning all of the display:none rows on top of each other but I didn't know if that could work or not. Huge thanks to anyone who has a solution. I can post the JavaScript for the filtering if anyone thinks it may help. I will be brief in hoping that the issue does not require a thesis to properly fix. I'm dealing with tables within tables..within tables. In one instance, I have a 2x1 (row by column) table inside another table. So, we'll call the inside table "B" and the outside table "A". Table B is centered inside a column in Table A. I'm trying to maximize the space, but nearly nothing works. Setting Table B height=100% does nothing. The only thing that works is setting the height=N px, where N is a number. This is no good, as I want to the site to work on all resolutions. I want it to be proportional. How can I fix this? Here's what I'm dealing with, visually: Any help would be welcome. Thanks. here is the (ineffective) code currently: <img style="float: left; width: 169px; height: 73px;" src="img/logo1.png" alt="" /> <h1 style="text-align: center;">random text</h1> the image shifts the left margin such that the text is centered as though the page width was 169px less than it really is. i'm not debating the code itself; the code above behaves as its meant to. aka no surprises. i just cant figure out the appropriate code to center the text across the entire real width of the page as though there was no image. i've tried div tags & all the things google hunting advised. no luck. other than finding this forum, which seems like it'll be a boon! thanx in advance for advise/comments/feedback/help. I have several websites that I maintain and update. A lot of them are just textual changes and I would think my customers can do these themselves by editing a simple .txt file. I was hoping my choices are avalable so that I can just insert this tag into my web pages and then give them login info to their edit page or show them how to upload the .txt file. I hope this is an easy one with several answers. Is it possible these tags could discipline your rankings in the search engines? Thanks, Jason Hi All, I am new to this forum and is expecting an answer for this question. I have implemented a facebook type search to the database which displays the familiar text saved in the database when I type some text in the database. My issue is after I have used the search box for a couple of time the text box starts displaying a similar dropdown from its history which hides my database search. Does anyone know how to disable it using html or css. See the attached Image if my question is not clear. http://www.htmlforums.com/attachment...1&d=1306715905 Hi Can any one help.
