This may appear to be a common question that has already been answered because it refers to the well-known z-index bug in IE7 and lower. However, this situation is somewhat unique; I am using a CSS dropdown menu that uses nested lists for sub menus. I have used this many times on other sites, but usually with the first level being horiz...
I'm observing that when using an HTML5 doctype (<!DOCTYPE html>), assigning a string containing HTML entities to a DOM object's innerHTML does not convert/render those entities on IE8 (and probably other IE versions). document.getElementById('some-div').innerHTML = 'Doesn't work.'; Does anybody have a solution? I've come across t...
Hi. I havee been looking at the source and stylesheet for the following address to work out how you can make a ... be "surrounded" by a broken horizontal rule. At the page http://www.joindiaspora.com/ there is a navigation menu having an example of it. In the html source there is used no tag so I am thinking it must be done using the st...
I wrote a simple Python script to download a web page for offline viewing. The problem is that the relative links are broken. So the offline file "c:\temp\webpage.html" has a href="index.aspx" but when opened in a browser it resolves to "file:///C:/temp/index.aspx" instead of "http://myorginalwebsite.com/index.aspx". So I imagine that...

Let's say I begin an HTML file with the usual DOCTYPE declaration. However, let's also assume that another instance of a DOCTYPE tag is introduced inside the body of that document via some soft of included content (eg. a content template). From my testing this doesn't seem to be a problem. But I was wondering if anyone know of a situa...

I've been doing some usability testing on a website I'm developing, using an Android phone and an iPod touch. In both cases, when entering a numeric field (time, distance in metres, etc) I have to take a manual step to change the keyboard layout to show digits. As the app will only accept numeric values in the textbox, I'd like to save...
In my form I have 3 styles of text: styleA (size 16 and bold, more like a header) styleB (size 16, normal weight, the normal text) and styleC (size 14 and italic, a note at the end). Should styleA and styleB use <h?> tags and styleC use a <p> tag? Or should styleA use an <h?> tag, styleB use a <p> tag, and styleC use a <small> tag? Or i...
I am beating my head against a wall trying to figure out why the code I have written for a particular site doesn't quite work. The main body of my pages (the white area in link below) should be stretching from navigation to the footer but only does so on certain pages. The footer is automatically placed at the bottom of every page reg...

A simple example to demonstrate what I'd like to do: let's say I want to underline all curse words in an input text area. So the javascript would check the input text area when a new letter is inserted, and for any word...
First off, I noticed that you can place the <map> tags anywhere in the document and the image map will work just fine. So, is it common practice for people to put the <map> tags in the <head>, or is it better practice to have it in the <body> immediately following the <img /> it corresponds to? Second, I know the map tags aren't depreca...
I have access to a copy of Dreamweaver CS5 which is paid for, so I am trying to decide if I would rather use Dreamweaver or Aptana. They seem fairly similar in basic function, but I'm sure their complete list of features differs a lot. The only thing I care about at the bottom line is which one is going to allow me to code HTML, CSS and ...
