This is just a basic question, but I've had this happen to me a couple times and would like to know why. Say you have a div, say you color it green and give it a definite width, when I put stuff within it, in my case an img and another div.

Hi, I'm using a popup modal on my site but have an issue with the dreaded IE6. The modal pops up smack bang in the middle of the page until the page is a long scroll, then IE6 opens the modal but you need to scroll up to find it. The code I'm using is as follows. $(id).css('top', winH/2-$(id).height()/2); $(id).css('left', winW/...

What I'm trying to achieve is to ensure that if a <select>'s selected <option> has a class called italic, then the <select> then has the italic class added (i.e. jQuery.addClass('italic')). If it doesn't, then the italic class is removed from the <select> to ensure other <option> e...

I understand the roles both CSS and JavaScript can play in the browser environment, however, it appears CSS is irreversibly stagnant without JavaScript. I by no means want to create a debate but this is what the situation looks like to me, the "novice." ...
