[00:00]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Are you able to view it?
[00:00]<znysyj>yeah looking
[00:00]<hnzrfm>so any thoughts why my form seems to work for me and not for soemone else ?
[00:00]<znysyj>asdfghjkl: what goes in the smiley box?
[00:00]<znysyj>Herald: ask #web
[00:01]<rsmprxacf>reisio: It's dynamic. It starts out with just text explaining what to do, then contains graphics and text, and basically anything else the AJAX module needs to display.
[00:02]<znysyj>"Ajax"
[00:02]<znysyj>k, so you probably would need at least one table for that box
[00:02]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Oh, and the top and bottom gray bands are currently divs. The center part is only a table because of the vertical centering.
[00:02]<znysyj>just one cell
[00:02]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Which is exactly what I've got.
[00:02]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Almost everything else on the page is a div, as it's supposed to be. :P
[00:03]<znysyj>k then you're fine already :p
[00:03]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Currently, the table stretches from the bottom of the top gray area (top:10%) to the bottom of the page (height: 90%)
[00:04]<znysyj>still fine
[00:04]<hnzrfm>cheers reisio
[00:04]<rsmprxacf>reisio: The td then has a padding-bottom of 146px, so the vertical centering works correctly.
[00:04]<znysyj>hrmmm?
[00:04]<znysyj>can't you just use vertical-align: middle;?
[00:05]<rsmprxacf>reisio: The problem comes in where the Ajax module needs to insert an iframe where the smiley box is, and have it fill the whole white area.
[00:05]<rsmprxacf>reisio: vertical-align: middle only applies to td's in strict mode, correct?
[00:06]<znysyj>dunno, I'd think it'd work in any mode
[00:06]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Yes, but it doesn't apply to div's, does it?
[00:06]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Right now, pretty much everything in the diagram works.
[00:06]<znysyj>no, that's what the td is for
[00:07]<znysyj>unless you don't need IE support
[00:07]<znysyj>then you can set display: table-cell; on the div and use it
[00:07]<rsmprxacf>reisio: OK, I think we're on different pages here.
[00:07]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Oh, ok.
[00:08]<rsmprxacf>Now the problem I've got is to try to get the iframe to go the full height of the white area, without stretching down behind the bottom gray area.
[00:08]<znysyj>what's wrong with height: 100%;?
[00:09]<rsmprxacf>Since the td doesn't have a height specified, at least in IE, it shrinks down to invisible.
[00:09]<znysyj>k well
[00:09]<rsmprxacf>If I specify a height:100% for the td, it stretches behind the bottom gray area, along with the iframe.
[00:09]<znysyj>since you are already using a table
[00:10]<znysyj>you can make three rows
[00:10]<znysyj>set the table to height: 100%;
[00:10]<znysyj>first and third rows to 146px height
[00:10]<znysyj>and make your iframe in the 2nd td full height of it
[00:10]<rsmprxacf>reisio: And what would you set to middle td's height to?
[00:11]<znysyj>nothing
[00:11]<znysyj>that is, I wouldn't set it
[00:11]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Wouldn't the iframe shrink down to invisible like it does now because the parent element doesn't have a height specified?
[00:12]<znysyj>I don't think so
[00:12]<znysyj>would have to check
[00:12]<swjzmjpzun>Navid you around?
[00:13]<nrvym>Ya
[00:13]<swjzmjpzun>thanks for that link to the menu
[00:13]<nrvym>Np
[00:13]<swjzmjpzun>Got it sort of working how I want it
[00:13]<rsmprxacf>reisio: OK, lemme build a quick test...
[00:13]<swjzmjpzun>would you know how I could change it to show the menu onclick?
[00:13]<swjzmjpzun>think I would have to edit the javascript around some?
[00:13]<nrvym>nope
[00:14]<nrvym>the css
[00:14]<nrvym>oh
[00:14]<nrvym>it should be in the <a href=""
[00:14]<swjzmjpzun>yeah, I changed it
[00:14]<swjzmjpzun>it works fine execpt...
[00:14]<swjzmjpzun>I have to click twice
[00:14]<nrvym>hm
[00:16]<nrvym>It could be because of the browser. Im not quite sure
[00:18]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Here's my test page:
[00:18]<rsmprxacf>http://www.adjustedlife.com/test.htm
[00:19]<rsmprxacf>reisio: It's obviosly not working right.
[00:19]<rcrgjyg>hi, tidy is saying that anchor href="page.php?page=1&id=2", Warning unescaped & or unknown entity &id, why?
[00:20]<rsmprxacf>reisio: I wish IE would just obey your height settings for table rows. It's make things so much easier.
[00:21]<rsmprxacf>reisio: It works just fine in FF, but I really need it to work in IE too.
[00:22]<rsmprxacf>reisio: 'ya able to view it ok?
[00:23]<dgfgyac>can someone help me with an IE issue --> http://home.tlhiv.org
[00:23]<dgfgyac>in IE, there is a black space below the header immediately below the yellow/brown horizontal bar
[00:23]<dgfgyac>it only appears in iE
[00:24]<avjd>how do add ids to radio buttons?
[00:24]<rsmprxacf>reisio: 'ya there?
[00:24]<avjd>I mean if there are several radio buttons, then do they all get the same id?
[00:26]<znysyj>sorry 1min
[00:26]<znysyj>akanoin: s/&/&amp;
[00:27]<rsmprxacf>reisio: np, just wasn't sure if you were still here.
[00:27]<znysyj>had to go outside a minute
[00:27]<znysyj>okay test.htm
[00:27]<znysyj>not working in just IE?
[00:27]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Right - FF is fine.
[00:27]<znysyj>k gimme a few
[00:29]<znfraxs>"i suggest we watch football", "i suggest watching football" or something else?
[00:29]<znysyj>`doctype html4trans @ reisio
[00:29]<rtfs>reisio, doctype html4trans: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
[00:29]<znysyj>relachs: 'football!'
[00:30]<znfraxs>ach -.-
[00:30]<rsmprxacf>reisio: 'ya saying that's my only option?
[00:30]<znfraxs>grrrrrr
[00:31]<znysyj>asdfghjkl: no, I didn't say anything yet :)
[00:31]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Good. :P
[00:32]<rsmprxacf>reisio: I'd really like to avoid having to drop into quirks mode to avoid a quirk. :P
[00:32]<znysyj>you're already in quirks mode
[00:33]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Oh, didn't think about the frameset doctype...
[00:33]<rsmprxacf>reisio: I've had this problem with the strict doctype though.
[00:33]<rsmprxacf>reisio: Just a sec...
[00:33]<znysyj>it's not the selection of doctype so much as the exact characters
[00:33]<znysyj>but it's sort of irrelevant anyways, just hang on
[00:34]<rsmprxacf>reisio: ok, now it should be in intentional quirks mode (quirks doctype).
