Re: Initial CSS Settings - download available

@Eric: The overlfow-y:scroll fix is an interesting one because it is only needed with that type of sticky footer in your example. I really don't like that horizontal scroll bug in Opera though.


Ya neither do I. Each method has one negative. So I guess it's just pick your poison. When I show code examples, I like showing "one" strong method. Not - do this, but if this, then do this - that's to confusing. So I understand your position.

On one hand, it's probably a bug in the webkit rendering engine, and will probably eventually be eliminated. And according to my stats, Opera has double the users as Safari.

So you may just want to give a option in the code - let them test it and see which one they like. I'll keep looking for a remedy though.

html {
height:101%; /* or height:100%; and overflow-y:scroll; */
}

Re: Initial CSS Settings - download available

If you are going to add new css codes to the default stylesheet that specifically fixes one issue for some certain browser(s) but might cause minor issue to another browser(s), then I think it would be best to add comments to those styles stating what the pros and cons are so it can be left up to the styler to keep it, modify it or remove it altogether.

Otherwise, the default css as it is now is doing a super job. I only have to change a few things around only because its specific for a site.

Re: Initial CSS Settings - download available

Doubt you'll use it - but how about this one? I have them both in mine.

a {
text-decoration: none;
outline: 0; /* removes dotted border in FX */
}
a:visited {
text-decoration: none;
}
a:active, a:focus, a:hover {
visibility: visible; /* kills IE6 a:hover bug */
text-decoration: underline;
}

I think that is already in there but written slightly differently. I can add a {outline:0;} - thought the outline only occurs as the link is clicked or given :focus though.


What is this one?

visibility: visible; /* kills IE6 a:hover bug */

Hi John. It's this thingy. I figure it's a good thing to add and forget about. It won't harm anything and you never have to give that bug another look again.
