How does Google manage to properly align the second column (i.e. the ticker name) in the "Get Quotes" search box suggestion dropdown in http://finance.google.com? e.g. if you enter "iii" - the second column is perfectly aligned. It does not use a fixed-width font - so just adding the correct numbers of spaces to the "ticker" will not w...

Hi, I'm trying to let an <input type="text"> (henceforth referred to as “textbox”) fill a parent container by settings its width to 100%. This works until I give the textbox a padding.

How can I, with JavaScript cause the table to programatically position to a given row (ie, programmatically scroll the table up or down by row)?...
Where I work, the design and development departments are totally separated, however we (the design department) are responsible for managing the CSS for our sites. Typically, new CSS needs to be released to the production server far more often than new website code. Because of this, we are deploying the CSS separately, and it lives outsid...
I've created a custom list, and made some changes to the way the CQWP renders it on a page by modifying ItemStyle.xsl. However, I'd like to use some custom css classes and therefore I'd like to link to my own custom .css file from the head tag of the pages containing this CQWP.

All of this results, not surprisingly, in my pages having bizarre styling on occasion. I am sure that all these styles are applied in a hierarchical method (alth...
The ClientScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptInclude method allows you to register a JavaScript reference with the Page object (checking for duplicates).

When developing (works fine live) the pages for our website don't pick up the correct CSS until the user has authenticated (logged on). So the Logon and Logoff forms look bad, but once inside the site, the CSS works again. I'm guessing it's some kind of authentication issue? Haven't really looked into it too much because it's only when...

I have a very large cascading menu system with over 300 items in it. (I know it's large but it's a requirement.) Currently, it's written in javascript so the external file is cache by browsers.

I'm working with my ASP.NET development team to try and create "better" (i.e. cleaner) HTML when rendering pages. At the moment, .NET has a nasty tendency to do things like dump JavaScript into the page, making it a mandatory requirement on form controls and not allowing forms to work when JS isn't available. In some instances, we're s...

(To see...
