[20:09]<twnd>hi: <style type="text/css"> body { background-image: url(sand.jpg); background-color: yellow; color: black; } </style>
[20:10]<xy>where url is i put the website i found it on or leave it the same?
[20:11]<twnd>No, you put the path to the image.
[20:11]<twnd>Preferably relative.
[20:11]<xy>ummm thats the thing...
[20:11]<twnd>Oh, you mean the literal string "url"?
[20:11]<twnd>That stays the same.
[20:11]<xy>i dont know what i should do for a path
[20:11]<xy>okk
[20:11]<twnd>It's the content of the brackets that changes.
[20:12]<xy>brackets?
[20:12]<xy>{ background-image: url(sand.jpg);
[20:12]<xy>?
[20:13]<twnd>hi: http://www.google.com/search?q=css+tutorial&btnI=true
[20:36]<zzvnzmumn>I forgot but anyone know where to register domain and what web sites host the dns registry?
[20:43]<fyfzzyd>How do I initiate an action if a checkbutton is unchecked or checked? What is the event called?
[20:43]<mjzwzzm>pilgrim: onchange
[20:44]<fyfzzyd>Dorward, is that W3C approved?
[20:45]<mjzwzzm>pilgrim: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/scripts.html#h-18.2.3
[20:46]<fyfzzyd>Dorward, lovya :)
[20:55]<bnxy>hi
[20:56]<bnxy>I want to add a radio button via JavaScript to a form
[20:56]<bnxy>I do it easily with myForm.appendChild(myRadio);
[20:56]<bnxy>but I want to add a text next to the radio
[20:56]<bnxy>how can I do that?
[21:00]<gzznvxzdzds>var myText = document.createTextNode("Some Text"); myform.appendChild(myText)
[21:00]<mjzwzzm>BunkaiSK: myForm.appendChild(myRadio); myForm.appendChild(myLabelElementWithATextNodeInIt);
[21:03]<fyfzzyd>Is window.location W3C approved?
[21:04]<mjzwzzm>pilgrim: I don't think so, but they don't really go in for specing stuff outside the document.
[21:05]<fyfzzyd>Dorward, works for me :). Thanks.
[21:13]<kzzvzxzzzpynz>join #css
[21:14]<kzzvzxzzzpynz>Sorry about that.
[21:23]<svjgncdlxnz>Are ECMA arrays defined as sequence or node containers?
[21:23]<svjgncdlxnz>or, more specifically, if I use splice to put an array back together after removing some center element, will references to the other elements still be valid?
[21:29]<brurxg>Does IE support the whitespace: pre-wrap and max-width styles properly?
[21:30]<svjgncdlxnz>beginning in IE7, yes, but not in current deployments
[21:31]<svjgncdlxnz>max-width is relatively easy to fake with a containing div
[21:31]<brurxg>Sadly, I /really need/ pre-wrap. :/
[21:31]<svjgncdlxnz>pre-wrap you can usually fake with &nbsp; and font-family: monospace; depending on your needs
[21:32]<brurxg>Hmm. Wait, when you say it doesn't support pre-wrap, does that mean it switches to pre - or normal?
[21:32]<svjgncdlxnz>uh
[21:32]<svjgncdlxnz>i *think* ie treats pre-wrap as inline, but don't quote me n that, check it instead
[21:32]<svjgncdlxnz>i mean
[21:32]<svjgncdlxnz>there's no need for pre-wrap in most cases
[21:33]<svjgncdlxnz>if you'll tell me what you're using it for i can probably tell you how to hack around it
[21:33]<brurxg>Guestbook. I want the submitters to have the ability to format their text the way they want, but not to make lines larger than the screen - or 40em, whatever is smaller.
[21:34]<svjgncdlxnz>parsing in php or something?
[21:34]<brurxg>No, common lisp
[21:34]<svjgncdlxnz>well
[21:34]<svjgncdlxnz>replace " " with " &nbsp;" and you should be fine
[21:35]<brurxg>I'll try to dig up an IE browser to test it on. I've got this nifty IE compliance patch javascript thing linked in, but I've never actually seen how it works..
[21:41]<brurxg>(Whee, only 9 errors. Hmm.)
[21:41]<brurxg>It crashed IE.
[21:41]<brurxg>With a segfault, at that. Wonder if I found a security flaw?
[21:43]<svjgncdlxnz>prolly
[21:44]<brurxg>It's not as if anyone will notice. Oh well.
[21:45]<svjgncdlxnz>report it
[21:45]<svjgncdlxnz>please
[21:46]<brurxg>Maybe. I don't actually know anyone who uses IE anymore, so..
[21:47]<svjgncdlxnz>85% of the web
[21:47]<svjgncdlxnz>all the people who don't upkeep their security
[21:47]<svjgncdlxnz>it directly affects how much spam you get
[21:51]<wzsvznf>i use mozilla
[22:19]<drgua_6o>hi...I am using an swf file as a banner on mysite however I am seeing a orange background on my right and left hadn side of the banner...can someone help me fix the issue please
[22:19]<drgua_6o>the site is at test.delhilive.com
[22:22]<hnrm-n>http://www.concordsupplyco.com/sandbox/index2.html#
[22:22]<hnrm-n>anyway to bring submenu links to foreground?
[22:23]<crrdfrrrs>is there a simple way to nix the auto linebreak caused by </h*>
[22:23]<crrdfrrrs>?
[22:23]<crrdfrrrs>(and other tags besides headers)
[22:23]<mjzwzzm>knnylggns: display: run-in IIRC. Rather poor browser support. Its rather unusual to want a heading that doesn't cause line breaks though.
[22:25]<crrdfrrrs>you're right, it is weird. basically i want to have "BIGGERTEXTtagline" without line breaks...maybe there's a better way to do it or you could point me in the right direction?
[22:26]<mjzwzzm>knnylggns: If the tag line is part of the heading, wrap it in a span and display block it.
[22:29]<crrdfrrrs>thanks Dor
[22:29]<hnrm-n>Any ideas on how to clean up that menue?
[22:42]<bugcrysc>if I want to create dynamic web pages, should I use any CMS system?
[22:46]<wg22gg>BunkaiSK, usually
[22:46]<wg22gg>yes
[22:46]<wg22gg>BunkaiSK, depends which sort of dynamic web pages you're making
[22:46]<bugcrysc>webben, hello..
[22:47]<wg22gg>hi again :)
[22:47]<bugcrysc>webben, well, i would like to let my secretary to update the webpage
[22:47]<bugcrysc>she does not know html, so she would like to use an editor
[22:47]<wg22gg>BunkaiSK, she doesn't want an editor -- she want's a cms
[22:47]<wg22gg>she doesn't want to be composing this stuff in a separate application
[22:47]<bugcrysc>ah, yeah, then cms is what is needed.
[22:48]<bugcrysc>webben, no, she wants to simply add pictures and text into predefined areas
[22:48]<bugcrysc>like a webpages would be defined into article rectangles, and whe would add text, edit it, and update as needed
[22:48]<wg22gg>yeah, that's a cms
[22:48]<bugcrysc>thank you
[22:49]<wg22gg>Can anyone recommend BunkaiSK a CMS? Are there any even half-decent ones?
[22:49]<wg22gg>(in terms of not generating markup that is total junk)
[22:50]<bugcrysc>yeah, i am affraid that cms will generate a mass of waste code
[22:50]<bugcrysc>ideal would be if I can create a static webpage in text editor, and then if I can add dynamic functionality to it.
[22:51]<wg22gg>BunkaiSK, you're confusing templates and daily editing again
[22:51]<wg22gg>here's a cms to try: http://www.phpnuke.org/
[22:51]<bugcrysc>webben, I thought that cms even creates a webpage via wysiwyg editor - i would like to avoid those editore for creating webpages
[22:52]<wg22gg>not saying it's good; but i downloaded it once and it seemed easy to use
[22:52]<bugcrysc>webben, thank you..
