I'm a person that learns best from example. Currently, I'm diving into the field of Web Development after fifteen years of developing desktop apps. I'm still getting used to all the web technologies used for developing modern web sites and everywhere I look, I see cool little UI elements and have no idea how they're implemented. So I ...

hey, I've spent too much time trying to get this to work on IE 7. It's working on ff and the only errors coming up on validator are missing alt tags for images (9 errors). The entire site works except for this one part, and so I'm wondering if there's a weird float bug that I'm unaware of. I have a div with an image inside of it. Under...

I have been debating using css with div's and laying out elements, and really am looking to see if the practice i've been using would be considered the best practice, or if there is something different that i'm over looking that would be better. Lets say we were placing two images on the same line, on on the left one on the right then a...

I want that according to this variable the stylesheet changes! It looks like: [if {var} eq 2 ] background-position : 150px 8px; [else] background-position : 4px 8px; ...
Hi, I wrote a code to show a div element(shareform) when a link is clicked and to hide it when the link is clicked again. I have many Forms under which this link 'Share' will be displayed. If i have only one Form, this code works fine. That is, initially the 'shareform' element is hidden and when I click the link, it is shown and when I ...

I've got a small program that displays third-party generated HTML pages. It's really just a wrapper around a locked-down TWebBrowser component (which is just an IE wrapper, I believe). The client wants to print these pages now too - but the TWebBrowser print method doesn't render all of the CSS. For instance, where the client uses block...
IE 7 does not display the initially hidden table cells (class="c") when class of the containing div is changed to "b", where "display:none" rule is removed. However, it should as it does for the row (class="r"). Other browsers behave properly. Seems like an IE bug. Did anyone came across this issue before? Any solutions? Thanks a lot. ...
Hi! I hope to explain my problem simple in order to get good feedback :) Imagine this scenario: One DIV wrapper within two floating DIVs, next to each other, with fixed width. All of them with overflow hidden. But when decreasing the width of the wrapper (or increasing the children's) the last DIV collapsed instead of hide. Please, ch...
