I have a large database of XHTML that I wish to render as PDFs and/or RTF using CSS. Is there an off-the-shelf/cheap solution that could do this at scale? Large meaning terabytes. Need something that is robust and good at handling large volumes of files. ...
The source code is already formatted using newline characters and whitespace. Goals: keep source formatting as long as lines fit in the screen horizontally (e.g. pre) show line numbers on the left side aligned with the lines (e.g. a table with line numbers in a separate column) break lines into multiple lines when they do not fit in t...
I'm currently working on getting my top nav to work in IE 6 - my site is located here. The tabbed item is the "current" selected menu, and its width is stretching to fill the rest of the space... what should I do to fix this without fixing the width, but setting it in some way that it doesn't expand like this? Thanks! ...
Is there an "invisible" tag in HTML (4) that I can use to make CSS distinctions tag.myclass tag.mysubclass h1 { } without having any visual impact on the HTML rendered? My background is that I have areas in a form that belong to different groups. As I am opening those in lightboxes (long story involving DOM operations and such, not ...
I'm having a problem with FIREFOX. I have an invisible list control over a drop-down control (html 'select'). Don't mind why, but I will say that the over-layer is a pop-up that appears as part of another custom control. Even though it's hidden, it's preventing me from clicking on the underlying drop-down control, making the underlyin...
Hi All- I have a list of tabs at the top of my application that I include in a general layout in application.html.erb. They look like this: <li class="current"><%= link_to "Home", provider_path(current_user.id), :method=> "GET"%> </li> <li><%= link_to "Edit Profile", edit_student_path(current_user.id) %> </li> <li><%...
I'm trying to create a unordered list, with each li element having it's own background image (no text, just image), but I'm having trouble (in Firefox at least, it works in Safari) getting the link to work. In Firefox, the image changes on hover, but doesn't let you click. How do I get it to work in Firefox? I've tried the A tag within a...
I'm changing my cursor dynamically by setting node.style.cursor = 'foo' when an item becomes selected. It seems that my cursor doesn't change until the mouse moves a pixel. Is there a way to tell the browser to change it immediately? ...
Does anybody know what is the resolution that will be used to render a printed HTML page. I'd like to know what size (in centimeters or inches) will be a printed image of say 500x500pixels. I know this value will change if I set the zoom value (IE and FF), but I am interested in the default value (when zoom is at 100%). Also, is there a...
Is there a better way to aggregate several css files ( based on what a give page requires ) than including them in a jsp file with c:if tags? The top of the file (sitting outside of web-inf dir, alongside images files and such) <%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %> <%@ page contentType="text/css" %> ... fo...
I have some mark up and I am trying to have the "hints for some input" light up when the accosicated text input has focus. I am trying to use the focus pseudo class along with a sibling selector. If i just use one or the other it works just fine. However, when combining them in IE8 it apears as if that style doesn't get updated when you ...
I want to use a pixel font on the web. I'm including it using @font-face however all the browsers are applying anti-aliasing to the font. I can't seem to find a CSS rule to disable this, can anyone think of another method of disabling anti-aliasing? ...
I have the following defined in my css file: body { text-align: center; float: right; position: fixed; } .twoColFixRtHdr #container { width: 780px; margin: 0 auto; border: 1px solid #000000; text-align: left; } and I have my HTML defined as follows: <body class="twoColFixRtHdr"> <div id="container"> ...
Hi, I'm testing a site for a friend and I've got it to work in all browsers, except IE 5.5 (Looks great in Adobe Browser Lab for all Browsers.) You may ask why I care about IE 5.5 - well I'm pretty familiar with IE 5.5 bugs (especially the bug where it counts borders and padding inside the space it needs to display an element) and can ...
I'm trying to get a dropdown menu to open when I hover over the parent link, and it works, except that when there's a video on the page, it doesn't seem to work... I'm not sure why. I've tried playing around with the z-indexes, but nothing seems to work. The submenu items just kind of blink in and out, but the whole menu doesn't stay ...
Hi all, basically im in a lil dilemma.... As usual, IE6 is messing up some tiny line of CSS. All i need to fix everything is: overflow:hidden; Thats it. But, heres the problem. This is for a uni assigned piece of coursework and they say only 1 css file which must be valid. And no conditional comments :S so there goes my plan. Is ther...
hi all, I am using flash to display background images (rotating) and it usually displays divs above the flash. Now since Safari has been updated it's decided to display the flash above everything, instead of everything else above the flash.. http://www.souliejolie.com/2010/home It works in all other browsers except for Safari 4(.0.3) ...
Hi, I've been working on this simple code that puts a CSV file into a nice table. But because the data is imported, styling ODD rows is a pretty hard thing to do. All I need would be a method to address certain rows, so I can make a "zebra" like background, and put specific data in another text style. Does aynone have an idea? thanks ...
I have a height rendering issue with Opera. Out of desperation I have been using "em" and this does not provide a workable proportional height rendering (depending on screen size and resolution). In IE and Firefox I am able to use "%". If I use "%" in Opera I get a mess. I am providing the URL because the source itself is too lengthy...
I'm trying to get Internet Explorer to render my pretty fonts. It's not working. They work fine in Firefox and I can see in my Apache access logs that IE has pulled the fonts. So it's parsing the font-face CSS tag, just not rendering them. The site I used to convert the fonts was: http://www.kirsle.net/wizards/ttf2eot.cgi. I tried that ...
