Different css rendering for span inside td with FF3.5 versus FF3.0

I have a web page that has a table and inside one of the td is span that uses a smaller font, float right to place it to the far right, and a negative margin-top, so it is aligned with larger text in the td. With Firefox 3.0 it works fine, but I just updated to Firefox 3.5 and the margin is moving the text up too far. I have another pa...

Strange(?) Opera Floating

I have some strange floating behaviour on opera (IE f's up completely different, but that's for later). I'm floating the i-icons to the right. It works nicely on Fx and WebKit, but opera shifts the icons down a bit. Anyone got an idea how this happenes? CSS: .dataRow { margin: 5px 0; clear:right; } .dataRow label{ display: block;...

CSS Container DIv Height. Floating DIV questions.

Can you force a container DIV height to accomodate two floated div children? Is there a fancy trick I can use to do that? I am trying to make two equally sized divs inside the parent div. I would like them to appear side by side with a little whitespace between them. Child2 tends to pop out and go below Child1. Note Child2 contains a tab...

I used the following line to convert float to int, but not as accurate as I'd like : float a=8.61f; int b; b=(int)a; The result is : 8 [ It should be 9 ] When a=-7.65f, the result is : -7 [ It should be -8 ] What's the best way to do it ? ...

Prevent round off in String.format("%.2f", doubleValue) in Java

How do I prevent String.format("%.2f", doubleValue); from rounding off (round half up algorithm) instead of just truncating it? e.g. doubleValue = 123.459 after formatting, doubleValue = 123.46 I just want to discard the last digit, 123.45 I know there are other ways to do this, I just want to know if this is possible using the...

Getting rounding problem while converting char[8] to double

(python) Converting a float to a string without rounding it

Hello, I'm making a program that, for reasons not needed to be explained, requires a float to be converted into a string to be counted with len(). However, str(float(x)) results in x being rounded when converted to a string, which throws the entire thing off. Does anyone know of a fix for it? Here's the code being used if you want to kno...

Using datetime float representation as primary key

From my experience I have learn that using an surrogate INT data type column as primary key esp. an IDENTITY key column offers better performance than using GUID or char/varchar data type column as primary key. I try to use IDENTITY key as primary key wherever possible. But recently I came across a schema where the tables were horizonta...

Fixed-width Floating-Point Numbers in C/C++

int is usually 32 bits, but in the standard, int is not guaranteed to have a constant width. So if we want a 32 bit int we include stdint.h and use int32_t. Is there an equivalent for this for floats? I realize it's a bit more complicated with floats since they aren't stored in a homogeneous fashion, i.e. sign, exponent, significand. ...

accessing base class primitive type in python

I am trying to derive a class from a python primitive, the float, for the purpose of printing a different repr string when it's printed out. How do I access the underlying data from the derived class when I do this? Here's a simplified example of what I am trying to do: class efloat(float): def __repr__(self): return "here...

Java - int/long, float/double

I understand that "2.5" is automatically a double, and to make it a float, I need to do "2.5F" (or should the F be lowercase?), and that I should use a float, say, if I had a constant that only ever needed 2 decimal spaces (like "0.08F" for Ontario PST tax), but I'm not sure whether "12" is an int or a long, but I know "12L" is a long, b...

Optimizing a floating point division and conversion operation

I have the following formula float mean = (r+b+g)/3/255.0f; I want to speed it up. There are the following preconditions 0<= mean <= 1 and 0 <= r,g,b <= 255 and r, g, b are unsigned chars so if I try to use the fact that >> 8 is like dividing by 256 and I use something like float mean = (float)(((r+b+g)/3) >> 8); this will al...

Is it possible to have floated divs of variable sizes 'wrap'/stick/flow to each other ?

I'm trying to align a list of div blocks by 2 columns that have varying heights by floating them to each other. If every block's size is fix, they will naturally stack with one another neatly, however because this one involves varying heights, for blocks that are taller, the adjacent block will have alot of blank space below, before goin...
