This is one problem I always have when i'm fixing layouts. I've got a absolutely positioned DIV, I place a child-DIV inside which also needs to be absolutely positioned. But I really want this child-DIV to behave relative to the parent... Is this even possible? Or do I need to create a wrap-DIV? <div class="container" style="position:re...
I'm attempting to make a form like so, with horizontal layout: <form id="foo" name="foo" method="post" action="fooaction"> <p>Enter a foo: <input type="text" id="fooText" name="fooText"value=""/> <input type="image" name="yes" id="fooSubmitYes" value="1" src="yes.png" title="Yes" width="24" height="24"/> <input t...
I'm attempting to capture mouse events on an element with another absolutely-positioned element on top of it. Right now, events on the absolutely-positioned element hit it and bubble up to its parent, but I want it to be "transparent" to these mouse events and forward them on to whatever is behind it. How should I implement this? Click ...
I'm looking to create a form where pressing the enter key causes focus to go to the "next" form element on the page. The solution I keep finding on the web is... <body onkeydown="if(event.keyCode==13){event.keyCode=9; return event.keyCode}"> Unfortunately, that only seems to work in IE. So the real meat of this question is if anybody...
I would like to display "password" as text in the password area, and when focused the box should become empty and allow normal password (starred out) input from the user. Currently I use the following method. Initially I display a text field showing password, when focused it is removed and replaced with a password field. Here is the jQu...
I have a couple of applications for clients that were dragged into the web kicking and screaming. I'd like to take a crack at moving some to Silverlight 3.0 if even just as a proof of concept exercise. I'd like to see if I could make them full apps, layout and all. I think the layout of the web app along w/ the graphics is good and do...
I have the standard content editor that uses an iFrame as the text area and then onchange of dropdowns it performs: idContent.document.execCommand(cmd,"",opt); where "idContent" is the iFrame. One of the dropdowns is supposed to be style but it performs a "formatBlock" command. I have a custom style sheet. Is there a way for me to p...
I have links to mp3 files on my website (normal <a href="file.mp3"> tags). But for many users who have QuickTime installed, it will open the mp3 files rather than "save" them when you click on the links. Can you force the browser to save the link rather than using the browser preference? I can use JavaScript or C# .NET but I'm looking...

<input name="foo[]" ... > I've used these before, but I'm wondering what it is called and if there is a specification for it? I couldn't find it in the HTML 4.01 Spec and results in various Google results only call it an "array" along with many PHP examples of processing the form data. ...

Hi, UDPATE I was passing the along with an AJAX response. Seems like IE doesn't like 'new' CSS... Works fine if placed in stylesheet or initial page request... internet explorer doesn't seem to react on classes set on tablerows. Is this correct? If so is there a workaround? Or am i doing something wrong? <style type="text/css"> t...
I'm using the Blueprint CSS grid for my HTML page. I have a table which I want to show/hide - linking it to a button, using jQuery. The problem is that everytime I click on the button to show/hide the table, everything on the page shifts slightly left-right. Is this a common problem? Does anyone know what could be causing this and what ...
I cannot get the background to stretch behind the contentbox. The strange thing is, it works with Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox. I hope it is enough to give you a link, since I do not know where the problem is in the code, it would not make much sense to post the whole code in here. http://www.yiip.de/arbeit/testlayout/sta...

A friend of mine is considering switching to Emacs from TextMate. He is used to TextMate's default HTML editing mode which has 4-space tab stops and inserts tab characters (i.e. it does no auto-indenting by default). It also allows completion of open HTML tags with "Cmd-Shift->". Any ideas? ...

I was wondering for what type of functionality I should not declare/define JavaScript include in the head section? It makes sense to me include JavaScript like Google Analytics near the closing body tag. Where should I...
