As far as I know floating point values are of the form n * 2^e, with float range being n = -(2^23-1) - (2^23-1), and e = -126 - 127, double range being n = -(2^52-1) - (2^52-1), and e = -1022 - 1023 I was looking through the C++ standard, but failed to find the place where the standard specifies this, or mandates the association of t...

I have about 8 paragraphs which I would like to float left, but some of the paragraphs have more text than others. So when I view in a browser, I get the left to right floating that I want, but I get multiple short paragraphs in a column when some paragraphs are longer and some are shorter. What I want is for each new paragraph to be i...
Hi, I'm trying to see if it is possible to put some text over an image without using position: absolute or having the image being, the background of an element. The reason for the constraints is that the HTML code is going into an e-mail, and it turns out that hotmail supports neither. I remember that when I first began studying CSS, fid...
Hi, in this SO question the OP wanted to drop the 0's in the decimal places for his results. Now the example I gave (below) to get around this was to CAST with DECIMAL, then CAST with FLOAT. e.g. SELECT CAST(0.55 AS FLOAT) Using the example above and running it in SQL Server 2005/2008 would seem to bring up the correct result of 0.5...

I don't know if it's a common problem, but I can't find the solution in web so far. I would like to have two divs wrapped inside another div, however these two divs inside have to be align the same level (for example: left one takes 20%width of the wrappedDiv, right one take another 80%). To achieve this purpose, I used the following exa...
I know that CSS only supports left and right values for the float property, but is there a technique to implement a floating top? I will try to explain. I have the following code: <div style="float:left"> <div style="float:left"> <div style="float:left"> .... With this code every div is floated to left until the right limit of the pag...

For example: <div class="container"> <div class="box1" style="float:left;width:120px;height:120px;margin-right:10px;">Thumbnail image here</div> <div class="box2" style="float:left;width:120px;height:120...

I've got a simple floated horizontal list that is looking good in IE and Opera, but Firefox has extra padding or margin at the top that I don't know how to fix.. It looked fine until I had to add a display:inline to an image link next to it because of another issue, so I think it's something to do with the display attribute.. any ideas? ...

I'd like to g...

Hi, Is it possible to stack up multiple DIVs like: <div> <div></div> <div></div> <div></div> <div></div> </div> So that all those inner DIVs have the same X and Y position? By default they all go below each other increasing the Y position by the height of the last previous DIV. I have a feeling some sort of float or display or other...
