Hello,
In Firefox or other browers, vertical scrollbar might not exist and
this lead to the page aligning problem (Inconsistency) , i.e. when you
just from one page (w/scrollbar) to another page with ((w/o
scrollbar).
These kind of inconsistency is not what we want. Some methods are
suggested, e.g. hight:101% or Mozilla styles hack...
But what do you think is the best approach?

It appears you are striving for a "pixel-perfect" design. Stop doing
that; it is unobtainable. Think instead about "fluid" design.

You have no way to know how wide nor how tall my browser window is, much
less what fonts I am using, what text size I have set as a minimum, or
even if I am using a visual browser instead of a text, or speaking,
browser.
But what do you think is the best approach?
Design flexible layouts where a mere 20 pixels is not going to break
your design.
As always, a URL to your attempt would help with further advice.

Why would you want to force a vertical scrollbar when none is needed?
The important thing is to avoid HORIZONTAL scrollbars, even when I
reduce the width of my viewing window.

Oddly enough, I found it difficult, using Google, to find a list of
best-of sites based on the quality of their css packages.
So I'd ask. Does anyone know of particularly good sites which are in
good measure because of their creative and useful css designs? I'm
aware of Zen Garden and a few others. So don't bother with those. And
I hope I don't get replies from people with a 'tin ear' and no design
sense. Good sites. Good pages. That's...

I started writing this up as a guide for some people who were looking for

a practical list of best practices that they could easily put to use.
The above URL is version 1.0 (draft) that resulted. IMO, it is not a

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could come up with a cross browser image
transition that I could use... I have already made one that works in IE
but i know it doesn't work in Mozilla Firefox.
Below is the script I have made, there is only one error with it
(besides compatabilty), the fact that you can make the images
transition even when there is already a transition occuring, I have
tried to compensate for this, but it doesn't work......

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
