I have 2 div boxes. It's all working fine but when the browser is shrunk to less than 800 pixels or so, the second div moves underneath the first div. How can I force it to always stay to the right of it? #testbox1 { background-color: #0000ff; min-width: 300px; width: 30%; height: 200px; position: relative; float: left; } #testbox2 { b...

Width of li with two floats different in IE, correct in FF

I've worked out most of the kinks with my "lava-lamp" effect that I'm trying to create. Basically I want two curly braces (both are images) to wrap a list-item, then follow over to the next list-item. I always build in FF, then make exceptions for IE. I can't figure out what exception I need to make! I'm using an absolutely positione...

C# define string format of double/floats to be US english by default

I have got several thousands of lines of a web application source code, initially written on a US development system, to maintain. It makes heavy use of SQL statement strings, which are combined on the fly, e.g. string SQL = "select * from table where double_value = " + Math.Round(double_value, 2); Don't comment on bad programming sty...

Float: left not showing up after a certain point.

http://test.jptgraphics.com/products?cat=APPAREL This works fine in Safari but shows incorrectly in the latest version of Firefox ( was fine in 3.5) and in some versions of IE. In the middle column the product thumbnails drop down below when the 'float: left;' parameter is used. It is as if it is being escaped by a tag from that point ...

Why is there no better representation for floating points than sign and magnitude?

We have 2's complement for integers that allows us to perform operations without worrying about the sign. That is a big help at the implementation level. Similarly we have so many floating point operations and yet we rely on sign and magnitude. What is the reason? Why can't a 2's complement like system work for floats? ...

Define array of float values in Actionscript 1.0

I am trying to make an array of 3 floats in Actionscript 1.0, but instead of incrementing the X & Y variables by 1, it just adds 1 to the end of the previous value. This has nothing to do with Flash, it is being used for an extension for a server that requires extensions in Actionscript 1.0. var uVars = []; uVars.X = 250; uVars.Y = 3;...

Is there a good radixsort-implementation for floats in C#

I have a datastructure with a field of the float-type. A collection of these structures needs to be sorted by the value of the float. Is there a radix-sort implementation for this. If there isn't, is there a fast way to access the exponent, the sign and the mantissa. Because if you sort the floats first on mantissa, exponent, and on exp...

Is there a floating point value of x, for which x-x == 0 is false?

In most cases, I understand that a floating point comparison test should be implemented using over a range of values (abs(x-y) < epsilon), but does self subtraction imply that the result will be zero? // can the assertion be triggered? float x = //?; assert( x-x == 0 ) My guess is that nan/inf might be special cases, but I'm more int...

Is there a current bug with FireFox 3 relating to clearing a float and it ignoring negative margins?

I've been doing some Googling, but haven't really found a straight answer. I'm curious to know if Firefox 3 has a bug when trying to apply a negative margin to a div that is either clearing a float or contains another element being floated? Firefox seems to ignore the negative margin, but Web-kit browses respect it accordingly. ...
