43 2,853 Markup for foreign languages thread by: David Trimboli \| last post Jul 23 '05 by: Neal In a text, I might want to include a foreign language term. In print, this is typically shown with italics. For instance (asterisks represent italics): 'I thought it was only a kind of cram, such as the Dale-men make for journeys in the wild,' said the Dwarf. 'So it is,' they answered. 'But we call it lembas or waybread, and it is more... HTML / CSS
43 3,058 Opera guesses encoding for "applicatio n/xml" thread by: Christoph Schneegans \| last post Jun 11 '06 by: Christoph Schneegans Hi! Okay, so positions on "text/html" XHTML are totally contradicting. Anyway! I hope there's more consensus about "application/xml" XHTML. I've recently learned that Opera 9.0b2 does not only evaluate HTTP header, BOM and XML declaration to determine the character encoding of an XHTML document sent as "application/xml", but also the...

43 2,229 Approximation of old font needed thread by: Andy Mabbett \| last post Jun 27 '08 by: dorayme I'm about to publish (what's the web equivalent of "reprint"?) an old paper article, whose heading is in this font: <http://www.flickr.com/photos/pigsonthewing/2446437162/> Can anyone kindly suggest a similar font suitable for use in CSS (I'll make sure something less fancy is specified as a fallback). Thank you. HTML / CSS

You need it _VERY_ rarely. Using it without a foundation of good HTML understanding... HTML / CSS

42 2,217 Must be a better way thread by: David \| last post Jul 21 '05 by: Michael Rozdoba I want images down the floating left and text just beside it like a two column table, sounds simple right?

42 3,992 A serious drawback of CSS thread by: Dario de Judicibus \| last post Jan 27 '06 by: Johannes Koch I am experimenting with CSS since 2001. As I moved from frame based sites to CSS sites, I realized that the major drawback of CSS is that you cannot anymore have your header, manu, footer and content panes in different files, but you have to repeat them in each page you do. If I have to change any common section, I have to apply the change... HTML / CSS

41 2,580 3 questions on validation thread by: Gérard Talbot \| last post Oct 1 '05 by: Gérard Talbot Cross-posted to: comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html and alt.html Followup-to: comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html 1- One day, I stumbled across a website that offers to validate webpages. What was really special about that site is that the validation service was available in Russian, German, Spanish and English. Now, I can't find this site... HTML / CSS

41 3,471 Getting A Server thread by: LayneMitch via WebmasterKB.com \| last post Dec 7 '07 by: Steve Swift I was just chating with a few webdevelopers and it was brought to my attention that I need some type of server technology installed on my computer so I could get a visual of how my sites would look on the web. I'm completely new to the server technology stuff and don't need anything expensive - only for testing purposes and so other web... HTML / CSS
41 2,563 Problems with cascade in menus thread by: Stan Brown \| last post Aug 11 '08 by: Dr J R Stockton As usual, it looks right in Firefox 3 but not in IE6. See http://www.tc3.edu/instruct/sbrown/nicholls/indexgood.htm for the desired behavior -- when you hover over the second or third main menu item, a submenu appears and an item can be selected. (The links don't go anywhere.) This works in FF and IE. The style sheet is... HTML / CSS
40 10,764 Make Hyperlink Open a Minimized Window thread by: Brian Jorgenson \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Stan Brown On my web page, I have a few hyperlinks with target frame of _blank. The hyperlink brings up a second window, but everytime I click on thie hperlink, it keeps bringing up a new window and not defaulting the the first active window. How do I make a hyperlink point to the active window? I don not want the hyperlink to default to the same page. I... HTML / CSS

40 2,870 Question About Frames Usage? thread by: JohnnyCJohnny \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Alan J. Flavell Is it pretty safe to say that almost all web surfers now use browsers that are Frames compatible? What are most people using these days? IE? Thanks HTML / CSS
40 2,347 Content-type META tag paradox? thread by: Harlan Messinger \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Alan J. Flavell Why would anyone ever have expected a content-type META tag to be effective at all? Is it because someone was misled by the happenstance the letters of the alphabet, the digits, and the characters {< > / ; , " ' =} happen to be at the same locations in several particular common encodings (US-ASCII, ISO-8859-1, etc.)? Even assuming that... HTML / CSS
40 5,087 How to teach coworkers DIV & CSS? thread by: Woolly Mittens \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Neal I was asked to find some documentation which explains how to develop a website using DIV's and CSS, instead of TABLES. This is to explain to the people we outsource things to, how we want it done. I dug around alistapart but couldn't find anything complete enough. I searched through the W3C, but could only find the standards, not how to... HTML / CSS
40 2,342 Building Accessible Website thread by: Tools \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Craig Cockburn What's the best browser to test for website accessibility? Is there a free screen reader I can use to test how my site reads best? HTML / CSS
40 3,078 They just don't work thread by: komone \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: David Graham "Now is the time for all good web developers to use stylesheets". Hmm OK, so I start this commercial site design with the express intent of using CSS entirely. (Something I haven't attempted in about 3 years since I last wasted my time trying to get it to work). The site layout is intended to look (nearly precisely) like this from the... HTML / CSS
40 3,331 What's acceptable for paragraphs? thread by: \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Spartanicus Could someone cite some offical rule or documentation with regard to the <P> tag? I've seen folks put it in between paragraphs... and others wrap it around a paragraph. I'd think to use it effectively, it'd have to be wrapped, correct? Thanks, - Michael HTML / CSS
40 2,664 CSS Tables not practical? thread by: Mason A. Clark \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Mason A. Clark CSS Experts: OK, I'm a stupid newby. Now, here's the question: Can CSS replace slightly complicated Tables and work in three browsers (e.g. MSIE 6.0, Net 7.1, Op 7.03) ? After countless attempts I've concluded "no". Thank you, HTML / CSS
40 3,435 More experiments: CSS "Buttons" thread by: Greg G \| last post Jul 20 '05 by: Brian http://risky-biz.com/new/risky.html I finally got DSL service recently, but I haven't forgotten the agony of waiting for the 64th image to load before I can see ANYTHING on a page. So I will keep to the antiquated notion of designing pages that load quickly. Toward that end I have always used text links. But I like the look of buttons as... HTML / CSS

40 2,581 Idea: Abbreviated HTML thread by: Seth Brundle \| last post Jul 23 '05 by: Philipp Lenssen I am surprised that no one has yet developed an HTML variant which uses abbreviated tagging. Maybe they have, I dunno. HTML is very verbose - this was important to its adoption, as reading source from existing pages is one of the fastest ways to learn it - and descriptive clear tagging is key to that. However, there is an argument for a... HTML / CSS
