  • inline-block vs. float

    @wolfcry911 - Yep, that fixed it on your layout. Also, I have seen a comment formatted like that before. That is just like an HTML if statement? What is the official name of those so I can google it? I do like the full CSS layout better the only…

    The text font or the font in the sprite? The anchors have text in them but it is just pushed off the screen. The text you are seeing is from the sprite image. The font name is: Capitals

  • inline-block vs. float

    @ChristopherBurton - I am trying to center the menu. Why should I not use absolute position? @wolfcry911 - That design looks perfect, but of course only in Safari on my machine. I am running a VM with IE 8 and it looks like crap (no offense). In…

    I will upload the float version again in a few hours.

  • inline-block vs. float

    Update: I am now using absolute positioning for the menu items. It looks like it works and gets the items centered just the way I like them, but I still have a spacing issues, for instance, above the menu items and below the menu items. Any pointe…

  • inline-block vs. float

    Ok, I have now updated the layout with the suggestions (See Updates). I made the background for the menu items (instead of using the spans). Put the header as the background and extracted the logo to make it an image siting on top of the header ba…

    @wolfcry911 - that is a lot, thanks! You just answered and confirmed so many things that I have been wondering. But of course opened the door for more questions like most answers do. I have been designing for awhile (10+ years) just recently I ha…

    I would also like to do something like this as well. Actually was just thinking on posting a discussion on it.

  • inline-block vs. float

    @wolfcry911: First I would like to address a question for you because you mentioned it. Why use a list for the menu? Everywhere I look I see this. Normally, I just use a div and anchor. What advantages are there to using a list for a menu? I ta…

  • Starting A Blog.

    I am not saying it is a bad idea to learn 'WordPress.' I installed it once but that was the extent as I had other projects to do. It is in my list to play with as it will make it easy to solve those "can you make a web site for me?&…

  • Starting A Blog.

    Personally, I am in the same boat. I don't want to use any CMS out there currently. I much rather program my own. You can learn much more by doing it yourself instead of trying to do it with one that is already built. I can streamline it to…

  • Layout with aligned three bars background

    I never really thought of applying a width to the body element before. I cleaned up the elements and CSS. I will work on adding the images to the layout tomorrow. Thank you for the help!

  • Layout with aligned three bars background

    Also, I would like to say, I think it pretty impressive that the layout currently uses NO IMAGES. I really wanted to see if I could pull it off and it fairly close to the AI design. The final product will include images of course for the menu item…

  • Layout with aligned three bars background

    I guess you would make the background not repeat on the "y" axis and are you pretty much guaranteed that it will look the same in most browsers (Firefox, Safari, IE 7+)? BTW...did update the site, now the elements are centered. I used th…

    Also, I normally use: header('Location: http://websitehere.com/logout.php'); When I am trying to redirect someone in PHP say for a bad login.

  • Login page, session issues

    This error means you have already outputted echo or printed data out the the browser. The session_start() must precede ANY output to the browser. P.S. Google is your friend. If you would have googled "Cannot send session cookie - headers al…

  • ArsThanea JQuery Rollovers...Where to begin

    Looking at the source code, looks like they are using jquery and CSS to pull it off of course. If you look at the source code on the home page, look for the: $('#MainMenu li').each That is where the actions are taking place to complete …

  • Menus in CSS

    That is what I was thinking. And I would hope the browser developers would plan for this type of thing. I will have to give that test ago once I get some free time as I have to have proof.

  • Current Date in Form

    If you can't change the HTML code, then the only way I would think is javascript as PHP would require you to output the HTML code with one of the options set to: Unless of course there is another way I am unaware of.
