I can't see anything wrong with the coding int he css file, but I would have used pixels rather than precent, but thats just me. Lovely pics though :)

If you use pixels and resize your window, as I always do, what happens?

If you use percentages and you resize, what happens? (this is why I have a preference for percentages)

:) Just some food for thought here, lol

1. Nothing it will stay put

2. The margins or whatever will expand to what ever percent of the page you have set

See I have learnt something:)

well done my son, you have learned well.:)

This is why I choose to use %. I'm one of those multiple window open at a time people. I also rarely keep my windows full size. I prefer to have them smaller then they should be. Just my preference. lol.

RE: css homework - 1/23/2004 6:53:38   
I tend to use pixels, but thats only because I center the whole page, and make it 750 pixels wide. I need to re-organise one of my style sheets, thats next :)

Ok, here goes some more homework. I am now taking a css positioning class. I am posting the first lesson for anyone to view the code and to use the links that are provided on the page. There is a good amount of links that I have placed on here with tons of information on css. I plan on adding more as time permits. (D a v e any ideas for links :))

LIL! Great to see you around! How are you doing??!

Thanks Karen and LIL, it was a bit of work with all the reading for this one. The next lesson is more doing then reading. So I am looking forward to it.

I'm also doing an xhtml/ssi class. I'm working on that assignment right now figuring out what i am going to do for a page, lol. Stay tuuuuuuuuuuned!

I hope that the posting of the homework is helpful to others.

RE: css homework - 9/11/2004 10:42:11   
This is interesting Dave, do you have any clues as to what could be the problem? I never looked at it in Opera, but am going to just to figure out what it could be?

btw, when did you look at it? I had a few things that needed fixing in the code and fixed it last night? Maybe you seen it before this? It wasn't too much just a few ' " ' missing. But it could have thrown it off?

Open for ideas?

<edit> This is interesting, it has to do with how I did the coding on the links as the ones on the left, the hover is working on them. I have to go over it and see what it is that I did different? Thanks for pointing it out to me dave. I really appreciate it. This is why I post it in here, its not only a learning experience for me, but for others as well. When I figure out what it is I'll report it back, or if you see it you can report it as well. Thanks

<edit>Hey dave, I dont' think I have the hover set up for those links? The other links hover. I dont' think I set the references to do so.<edit>

lol, no problem dave. I was sort of thinking what did I do wrong? lol. I'm glad that it wasn't in my code. whewww! So much to learn here, I should create index cards of information to keep by the computer when I do a page and am not looking at notes. :)

RE: css homework - 9/11/2004 13:41:53   
btw one thing you might find useful for quick tweaks - if you didn't know already - is the 'edit css' feature in the web developer toolkit of fifrefox

if you press ctrl+shift+e you can edit css live, load a sheet or save your changes. (it's also in the menu ) Tools > web developer > css > edit css. good for trying stuff out without having to necessarily save it :)

Next assignment is up. This one was a bit on the challenging side on the 3rd part that I posted for the homework. The 3rd part was on absolute positioning.

I don't have any imput from the instructor as of yet as I just posted it.

Here is the week 3 assignment. I'm not finished yet it is building a photo gallery in css.

The one thing I can't seem to solve, is the nav section that has that little gap on the right. I have managed to get almost all of it to disappear. Its not just on my assignment, it is also on others as well, and larger.

I'm working on photos for the rest of the pages right now. If anyone has an answer on how to solve this nav problem I would appreciate it.

RE: css homework - 9/21/2004 20:01:04   
Deb, If you want 5 nav buttons to be equal in size and sit on top of the footer then they should be in total 20% wide each. So if you want a border on each side it is easier to make the border a % also. A border width of 0.5% and a width of 19% should work.

Try changing the code as follows.


#nav li a:link, #nav li a:visited {
    float: left;
    width: 19%; /*20% including left and right border for 5 equal buttons*/
    padding: 3px;
    color: #fff;
    text-decoration: none;
    border: 0.5% solid #fff;
    }

Thanks Donkey, I'm going to try that now, I'm working on the other galleries right now that go along with this one. I had put so many changes in there yesterday that I spent several hours working on just that one area trying to figure it out. Needless to say, I was frustrated with it.

I sort of took a break for a while today, shouldn't have done it, but I put a ton of hours into this yesterday.:)

I'll let you know how it works out.

It works, but, for some reason, the borders that I had set for tabs is missing? I'm going to go over the lesson and my code to see if I removed something while I was messing around with it yesterday.

Thanks bunches peter! It works, I knew it would, just couldn't figure out how to get it to!:)

More problems!
http://www.csstest.debsplace.org/wk3examplex.html
Ok, here it is, I have the nav section that is supposed to have borders to the right of each "tab" of the nav section. However they aren't showing up. I fixed some code so that they would in moz and firefox, but in IE I can't seem to figure out what the problem is with it?
If you view the page, the code is different from what I have posted here. I made a few changes but did not load them up yet.

this is driving me crazy right now.

Your using border-right? try using border-left instead

I did :):):) I even tried a short hand border to cover all bases. Not working, I just double checked before I finished posting this.

I think I need a break. Time to go visit the river with my camera. I'm at this constantly trying to get this done.

Put it to 1px rather than 0.5%?
