This is my blog: http://laschavasdeflickr.blogspot.com As you can see there is a grey line (#bbbbbb) there that its not on the edge, I am going crazy trying to fix it since I change the width of the post column. If someone can point me what I am doing wrong I will appreciate it. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE html P...
I'm trying to modify the Simple jQuery Slideshow published by Jonathan Raasch. It cycles through all images fading from each to the next. His example works with fixed-size images. I want it to instead work with images sized to a percentage width of the browser window. This works with fixed-size images... #slideshow { ... h...
My question is simple. What is the best way to achieve what you see the pic below in WPF? At the moment this is a horizontal StackPanel, with the right padding of the checkbox set to 90. This works okay, but if you resize the window it's no good anymore, unless maybe you re-adjust the padding in the window's resize event, but that seems...
I cant quite understand why two vertical label components dont appear right under each other. There seems to be a lot of space between them, is there anyway to get this space removed as setting padding makes no difference at all. For example, take this layout code: <mx:VBox> <mx:Label text="Title" paddingBottom="0" paddingLeft="0" padd...
I'm writing a WPF application and I'm trying to figure out the best binding approach but have been coming up only "hack" solutions and I'm hoping there's a better way. I have a Border object (which derives from FrameworkElement) inside a Grid. The Border's size may change because of a child TextBlock's text changing. The Border's posi...

Ok, didn't really want to ask this question as it should be quite a simple solution, but I've spent hours trying to resolve it to no avail. I have a web page with a text box, and then a select drop down next to each other. In Firefox and chrome they line up fine next to each other, but in IE the select box sits higher than the text box. ...
I have a wx.Frame, in which I have a vertical BoxSizer with two items, a TextCtrl and a custom widget. I want the custom widget to have a fixed pixel height, while the TextCtrl will expand normally to fill the window. What should I do? ...
I am trying to construct a simple, one-column layout. I want the top two rows to have smaller, fixed heights. The third row should expand to fill the rest of the page. Here is my current source: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <style type="te...

While investigating an issue with application I'm working on, I've came across one behavior I don't quite understand. It seems that when you have a TextBox (for example) with bound Text property the system takes one more layout pass than when you have a static Text. Could anyone, please, explain why this extra pass is happening? Does th...

Is there any way to get the dimensi...
Is there a good, concise guide to the various behaviors of the controls that inherit from System.Windows.Controls.Panel? Or just a WPF layout guide in general? In particular, I'm interested in how the panels handle child objects that have width or height set to "Auto" and Horizontal or Vertical Alignment set to "Stretch". Some layouts c...

I have a Gridview control on an ASP.Net page with fixed width cells. The data coming from the database occasionally comes over as a contiguous string of characters. When there are dashes in the string, it will break so as not to upset the width of the layout. If there are no dashes (specifically, I'm dealing with underscores), the string...

For custom rendering purposes, I've created a class (axialPanel.java) that extends JPanel and overrides the paintComponent method. An instance of axialpanel is added to the west side of a container class set with a BorderLayout. I would like to have a few pixels of margin around the axialpanel, but setting axialpanel's border to an insta...
