Have a CSS question

I have a picture i am trying to put inside a div that has a class already which makes pictures have a frame around them when i insert them into it, which is fine for the main image but i am trying to add an extra image in there and i dont want that frame to be there.
I will attach a picture and a link to the site i am talking about.
If anyone can help me with this CSS question or how i can go about getting rid of the frame around the step 1, step 2 and step 3.
eWeb Solutions Website Development
Thanks!

Take the frame class out the div and apply it to select images like this:
<div>
<img class="frame" src="step1.jpg">
<img src="picture1.jpg">
</div>
<div>
<img class="frame" src="step2.jpg">
<img src="picture2.jpg">
</div>

  • 2 CSS Questions on my layout

    Hi everyone, I have two CSS questions regarding my layout.
    First off, it is located at:
    http://robles.clunet.edu/~ssmi/tsr9/tsr9template.html
    The CSS is embeded in the file (it will linked from a
    different file once I am done with this design, but beside the
    point)
    My first question is about how I can keep the right top image
    from being bumped down to the next line when the window is resized.
    I want it to squeeze into some, but then at a point have the scroll
    bars kick in.
    My other question is how I could make the title image "The
    Scott Report" centered between the two left and right images up
    top.
    Could anyone help out?
    Thanks a lot!

  • Does Safari have a css property to emulate IE's disabled vertical scrollbar

    Hi,
    Does Safari have a css property to force the always-on disabled Internet- Explorer-type scroll bar like Firefox has? The site design needs to plan for the scroll bar width anyway, and I don't want the screen jumping left and right when the scroll bar activates and deactivates. I also don't want to use the active scroll bar by setting lengths to height plus one.
    Thanks!
    Thanks!

    This isn't about the css standard. I agree that IE is a huge impediment to progress on the Internet as a whole. Having scroll bars showing by default or not is a browser design choice.
    Firefox and Safari have initially chosen to hide them by default, and have them visible only when content exceeds page length. I used to think that was the "right" way. I, and many others, now realize that IE has it right. The advantage is the page doesn't jump around depending on content. The designer must compensate for the possibility of a scroll bar in the design anyway. Firefox has recognized the validity and widespread support for this position and has since incorporated a proprietary css property to render the disabled scroll bar. They separate their properties by prefixing them with moz to circumvent conflicts with what may become a W3C standard property in the future. My question is whether or not Safari has any means available to web developers that enable them to display an inactive scroll bar yet.
    Thanks!

  • CS3 Spry css question

    I know basic tableless css, my question is instead of a regular navigation bar I need to use the spry widget for a dropdown navigation bar on an exisitng html page. I'm able to insert the spry in the correct spot on the .html page and get it to work but I have a css sheet already attached to the page I need to know if I can just select all the css from the spry css page and insert it inside my attached css page?
    Any help?

    Yes, you can move the styles, but in my opinion, it is safer to maintain the Spry CSS assets in their own file, safe from inadvertent deletion or harm. There is an inherent logic to the order of styles in the Spry CSS sheets, and you might lose the wisdom of the comments not to mention the orderly consistency as well.
    You may link many style sheets to your .html pages...you are not limited to one per page.
    By using several CSS files attached to one page, you can also have a separate style sheet for different media: one for the Screen, one for Print, one for a Handheld device. There's no reasonable way to keep all these varying uses for different style sheets all one ONE sheet. The Printer will look for your main style sheet AND at the overriding styles in the print style sheet, for instance, so you don't need to print the nav bar when what you want is a print of the content.
    Z
    You do, of course, need to NAME the CSS files with distinct names, for instance, global.css, print.css, handheld.css.

  • Basic CSS question. New learner

    I am just learning CSS and HTML and I have a basic question. How can I make my float left div's expand down for content? I have a wrapper and within my wrapper I have 3 columns all floated left with margins added to them, I ommited height so that my columns can expand as I add stuff to it. I have content on my columns, but instead of wrapping the content down as I add...the div's are expanding and dropping below each other because there is no space for them. I tried clearing, but I am not sure I understand the clear property well so I stuck "none" in there for now. Here is my HTML and CSS:

    This is what I am seeing on my display in Dreamweaver. As you can see, these rectangular elements are my div's. They are supposed to line up side by side, but my "content" isn't filling my div's properly, but rather expanding them causing my div's to drop down below each other.
    Thanks for any input.

    It would be much easier to advise you if you could post a URL for a site or page.
    Height and CSS is a bit of mystery to me but the most simple principle is that content is the way to give an element height.  There are ways around it and you might like to Google "Faux Columns CSS" or something like it.  The principle is that you construct an image that is a slim band of color that align with your intended columns.  You apply that image as a background in you CSS and set it to repeat down the page.  Then as your content grows or differs the graphic takes care of that.
    There are other ways such as using positioning and javascript but they are more complicated.

  • Oracle 9i R2 Installation on RH Linux 7.3 -- Have a few questions.

    Hello,
    I am at the end of the Oracle 9i R2 installation and have a few questions.
    1) The "Agent Configuration Assistant" keeps failing. I get the following message.
    Parameters "orahome" = /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0
    Parameters "nodeinfo" = NODE_VALUE
    Agent Service Failed
    What does this mean and how can I complete Agent Configuration Assistant install?
    2) I completed the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant successfully and created passwords for sys and sysoper (not sure if these were the exact users). Note I did not modify any other users or unlock them.
    How do I log into the sqlplus prompt, what users should I use and how can I create new users and databases?
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Regards,

    (1) You can probably just ignore the Agent Configuration (are you using the Agent to collect data?)
    (2) sqlplus '/ as sysdba' will log you into the SQL*Plus prompt.

  • New to IPhone and have a few Questions?

    To start I want to say that I am a long time (25+ years) veteran of technology but am new the the IPhone. My IPhone is not Jailbroken and would like to keep it that way if I can. Allthgouh I did jailbrake it with blackra1n for about 30mins then I did a factory reload and let it be as it started acting stupid once I started installing apps from unofficial sources.;) Im a x86 nerd and NOT a MAC guy. I haven't sat down at a MAC/Apple in about 15/20 years.
    I just got my first IPhone 3Gs/16GB. (Coming from a BlackBerry Curve 8310) the other day and although it is taking some time getting used to, I think I will like it more then I do once I get used to it.
    Anyhow I have a few questions to start off with. I did some googleing already but just want to make sure I understand a few things.
    All though I did the BlackRa1n jail break thing and installed a few apps then it locked up and failed to turn on or something so I did the whole reload from itunes and now its all good. Anyhow.....
    1.) It appears as if one can not run a program from the home sreen and have it run in the background while doing other things? Take the many SIP Clients I have played with in the last 48 hours. Once I open the SIP Client and connect if I hit the physical button below the screen the program closes, thus the sip client no longer works. Pretty much most if not all apps iv installed from the App Store act like this. Is this the case? Does the IPhone not mutitask at all or verywell?
    2.) Are there any SIP Clients that work over 3G? All the ones iv tried say they are for WIFI only. The SIP Clients work fine when on WIFI. It sounds like this is Apples way of controlling/monopolizing the voice/data/voip aspect of the platform/device. Im sure they would lose a lot of money if everyone did what I am trying to do.Just my opinion.
    3.) Maybe I play with it to much but **** the battery dies fast. Is there anyway to optimize the battery at all other then for me not to use it as much?
    4.) How can I remote lock it if I lose it or it gets stolen? I read somewhere this could be done.
    5.) Are there any other Shells/HomeScreens/Themes that can replace the standard 4x4x4 row icons?
    6.) The speaker phone (when on a call) seems kinda low even when turned all the way up. Is there any way to make it louder?
    7.) I am using the built in VPN client to connect to my works PPTP Windows 2003 VPN server but the client randomly disconnects through out the day. Is there any way to have some type of keep alive set or are there any other VPN Clients that I can use?
    Sorry for all this just thought I would ask for feedback.
    Many thanks for any help anyone can provide,
    SomeOneOnLine

    1.) It appears as if one can not run a program from the home sreen and have it run in the background while doing other things? Does the IPhone not mutitask at all or verywell?
    The iPhone SDK does not permit ANY 3rd party apps from running in the background or multitasking. It does provide for push notifications which can simulate certain background activity in terms of receiving external notifications while the app is actually closed. This works reasonably well with IM apps, news, sports, weather, travel updates and some peer-to-peer games.
    2.) Are there any SIP Clients that work over 3G? All the ones iv tried say they are for WIFI only.
    Just how would the SIP server connect to the cell carrier 3G network? Do you know of ANY that do??
    3.) Maybe I play with it to much but **** the battery dies fast. Is there anyway to optimize the battery at all other then for me not to use it as much?
    3G voice and data connections are culprits. Avoid email push and frequent fetching. See this Apple article for detailed suggestions.
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
    4.) How can I remote lock it if I lose it or it gets stolen? I read somewhere this could be done.
    MobileMe Find My iPhone will locate, set a passcode lock and optionally wipe all data from your iPhone. You have to be a MobileMe subscriber.
    5.) Are there any other Shells/HomeScreens/Themes that can replace the standard 4x4x4 row icons?
    No. Apple does not permit this.
    6.) The speaker phone (when on a call) seems kinda low even when turned all the way up. Is there any way to make it louder?
    You can troubleshoot your iPhone as described in the User Guide - restart, reset, reset settings, restore. Or, get hearing aids
    7.) I am using the built in VPN client to connect to my works PPTP Windows 2003 VPN server but the client randomly disconnects through out the day. Is there any way to have some type of keep alive set or are there any other VPN Clients that I can use?

  • Thinking of getting an iPad but have a few questions

    After using the iPhone 4 (3GS previously) and really liking the OS on it, I am thinking of purchasing an iPad to make reading ebooks easier, also, having the iPad would be more convenient for me to quickly go on the net in my home (or other wifi area, but mostly home use) to seek information and also check, send emails, rather than having to switch the computer on all the time and then having to wait for it to load up and also with the iPad, the larger screen would make email, internet use and ebook use more pleasurable due to the iPad's larger screen when compared to using my iPhone.
    I have a few questions that I would like to ask to iPad users, who could perhaps answer them for me?
    In my household we have 2 iTunes libraries, one for my iPhone and one for my girlfriend's iPod. I created a separate iTunes library for each of the devices so that each one would have a totally separate library and therefore the possibility of having one overwriting the others library would be impossible.
    Now ideally I would be wanting to create a separate iTunes library for the iPad, but I would want to add the music and apps, email accounts, bookmarks that I have on my iPhone and add them onto my iPad. Would this possible?
    Also. I believe some apps have specific versions for either iPhone or iPad, so would the iPhone versions of the apps run on the iPad, or would I need to download the iPad versions of those particular apps?
    Also. I have a number of DVD's that I have converted and then dragged and dropped the video off of them into iTunes. If I am correct, would I need to reconvert those videos/DVD's again, as the video size (screen size) would be for the iPhone and therefore a smaller screen, which would not look very good on the iPad's much larger screen. If this is the case, can anyone recommend a good video converter for converting video for the iPad and what settings need to be used for the iPad?
    I also would be wanting to have a number of photos on the iPad. To get them onto the iPad, is it just a simply matter of selecting the pictures I have on my computer that I want added to my iPad, and then just dragging and dropping them into iTunes, then connecting and syncing the iPad to get them added on to the iPad, or is there an easier method?
    Thanks in advance

    Funny you should mention Macs, but I'm thinking of my next computer been an iMac, and using the Parallel Desktop software so that I can have functionality of been able to switch to Windows when needed to run the programs that are not Mac compatibly. I'm swaying towards Mac has I have heard their OS is more reliable and secure compared to Windows, and the need to have anti virus and anti spyware programs on a Mac is not really needed, but I figure if I can run Windows on a Mac then I have the best of both worlds, anyhow back on to topic
    I do indeed take backups of the various libraries and related data for them.
    I have used the Dropbox app and was impressed, but I did prefer an app called iFiles which allows me to carry various files/files types around with me on my iPhone, such as PDF files, Word doc files etc.
    The reason I use the method of having a separate iTunes library for each device we use on the computer, (my iPhone, girlfriend's iPod, and soon maybe an iPad) is because I accidentally replaced the music I had on an iPod I had at the time with my girlfriend's music. So from then on, that's why I have created a separate library for each Apple device, and so far I have never accidentally messed up another devices contents.
    Thanks for the help its much appreciated.

  • Owners of the 80GB iPod classic, I have a few questions

    Ok, so I got my 80GB black iPod classic today and have a few questions, one of these I will need you to check something on your classic.
    1: Can you get the digital booklets from the albums purchased on the store on your classic?
    2: Is it normal for the hard disk to make that noise when it's spooling?
    3: I've noticed this, is there a slight delay switching to the "iPod" screen from the screen before it? I need some one to check this.

    All hard disks make a bit of noise. The Classic uses a memory cache to allow it to stop the hard disk and thus save power. When you switch screens, the delay is due to the hard disk spinning up and/or searching for the next thing to display. In short, it's the price we have to play for 80/160Gb of space.

  • Just bought a Mac Pro...I have SO many questions!

    Ok, so I ordered a healthy version of the Mac Pro this morning. 250 GB HD, ATI x1900 card, 2 GB Ram, bluetooth/airport, 2.66GHz etc. Now I have a few questions since I want to know the tech side of things more clearly than I do.
    1) RAID: I'm studying to become an editor, so I love Final Cut Pro and know it extremely well hence my Mac Pro purchase. Now, my question is about RAID drives. I'm buyin 2 320GB drives, I already own a 500 GB drive I'll put into the new computer and it comes with a 250 GB drive. Someone sent me to a wiki about RAIDs, but it wasn't clear to me at all. In layman's terms, what is it and what do I do to make it work?
    My understanding is that it takes my 4 drives and makes them one big 1.4 terrabyte drive. Is this true? If so, when I just place them into the computer does it automatically do this? Or is it 4 separate drives until I do something about it? Does RAIDing make the drives faster? I also hear there are different numbers of RAIDs. Basically, given my situation, what would I do and how does it benefit me. Also, is there a different way of treating the computer if you have RAID drives?
    2) I bought an ATI x1900 and it has 4 DVI ports, but the apple site says it's for 2 apple 30" displays. Since there are 4 ports, can I plug in 4 24" dell displays? (not that I have that many, but basically can I plug in 4 single DVI connector monitors into the 4 DVI spots)?
    3) Is there RAM that works with it yet that Apple doesn't sell themselves?
    4) I've heard there are Boot Camp driver issues. Couldn't you just install Windows XP Pro and just find all the drivers for the components online yourself? Would that work?
    5) Would Win XP look at all 4 drives as a RAID drive or as 4 separate drives?
    6) My shipment says 3-5 weeks, but some people already got their Mac Pro. Do they overshoot? Or are there just that many orders to fulfill now?
    7) Can someone direct me to an affordable speaker system that has an optical input so I can use that feature on the Mac Pro?
    8) Beyond the 4 internal drives, can you install an eSATA card and get even more drive space by using eSATA or is there a cap of memor?
    I think that's all the questions I have. I am so grateful to anyone who reads over this and answers them. I know it's a lot of BS questions, but I'm trying to get the most out of my purchase and trying to understand more of the tech side of things so I can become a better editor. Thanks!

    1. RAIDs
    First, you normally should not include your startup system on a RAID because if the RAID goes down you cannot boot the system or repair the RAID easily. Better to use one drive for the operating system and RAID the other drives for data storage. You can easily create the RAID using the OS X Disk Utility application. Instructions will be found in the DU help.
    2. Video
    Not familiar with the card, but presumably if there are four ports you can connect four monitors.
    3. Third-party RAM
    Yes, but what's currently available does not meet Apple's specifications for use in the Mac Pro. However, you should see third-party product showing up very soon. OWC (www.macsales.com) has apparently gotten some inventory just today. Crucial and Kingston should have product also in a short time. You might also check www.datamem.com. They did not have inventory yet, but probably should in the near future.
    4. Boot Camp and Parallels
    This is correct. Apple is aware of the problem so you should see fixes coming soon. Parallels is also aware of the problem and believes they will have a fix for Parallels Desktop shortly.
    You cannot run Windows without one of the above.
    5. Would Win XP look at all 4 drives as a RAID drive or as 4 separate drives?
    Don't know. Don't much use Windows. However, if the RAID is formatted Mac OS Extended then Windows cannot see the drive because it cannot read Mac formats without third-party software. As far as I'm aware you cannot create a RAID on the Mac using FAT32 formatted drives, nor would you want to.
    6. My shipment says 3-5 weeks, but some people already got their Mac Pro.
    No. If you placed a BTO order (other than the standard configuration) then your order takes longer. If you buy a standard configuration they ship ASAP.
    7. Speakers.
    Search Google.
    8. eSata card.
    Can't answer this question, I don't know.

  • I just got a new iPad 2 and I have lot of questions. I was able to wirelessly link my iPad and iTunes on my PC. I was able to SYNC my email and calendar (new only no history), however I have not been able to SYNC Outlook contacts.

    I just got a new iPad 2 and I have lot of questions. I was able to wirelessly link my iPad and iTunes on my PC. I was able to SYNC my email and calendar (new entries only no history), however I have not been able to SYNC Outlook contacts. Outlook has multiple contact lists. Only one has any data. I can't find a way to delete the others and I can't keep the one I want to use at the top of the list. Any ideas?
    I have a question about email. I have several thousand emails in 10 or so days. How can I select multiple emails for deletion in stead of one at a time? How do I designate emails from a given sender as junk or block certain senders?
    Ron

    the spcs page on this site state which video formats the ipad supports
    I'd suggest converting your old videos to one of those formats
    handbrake is a free program which does this for you
    itunes used to be able to too when I right clicked incompatible media but don't see the option any more
    or maybe it only show when one right click incompatible media and currently my lib don't have any
    about the music then it's odd what formats are they?
    if they are acc protected have you tried to remove the DRM this can be don using itunes as
    apple don't use DRM for music any more

  • Totally new to external hard drives and have a few questions

    Since beginning my search for an external hard drive this morning I have learned that I know very little about this subject. I really have very little knowledge of all the computer lingo used when looking at these devices. I have a few questions regarding this, if someone could help me.
    1. Are all external hard drives compatible with my mac?
    2. Do I need time machine if I have an external hard drive?
    3. I have two PCs in addition to my mac. Can I use the same external hard drive for all three or would I need a separate one?
    Thanks for helping!

    Use a Firewire not a USB drive.
    I have had many reliability issues, and compatibility issues with USB over the years (starting with the original iMac), right up to the PowerMac G5 and Mac Pro - devices not working properly with hubs, needing to be plugged directly into ports on the computer (even though there aren't enough), etc, etc.
    For me Firewire devices cause fewer of these sorts of problems.
    Firewire is "isochronous", basically meaning that you can pump "clocked" data though it in real time. USB works more like TCPIP, with the data chopped up into packets and later reassembled. (Thus, at a minimum, you have latency, that is, the wait for the data to be "put back together".) Second, the Firewire protocol allows more direct address to memory (including mass storage) with minimal intervention of the CPU.
    No collisions, no glitches. Firewire is rock-solid.

  • Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install tiger discs version 10.4.10. Is it safe to downgrade or not please help

    Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from Sep 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install (2) tiger discs version 10.4.10.  I want to know if it is safe and what are the necessary steps to do so. Also by downgrading im wondering if a lot of apps nowadays support tiger for example I have photoshop version 5 and 4 these are very important to me. One last question does anyone know of any reliable virus protection for mac that doesnt slow down your computer? because I have read that a lot of them do so. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it! Here are the specs for my iMac 
    Model Name:
    iMac
      Model Identifier:
    iMac7,1
      Processor Name:
    Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:
    2 GHz

    1
      Total Number Of Cores:
    2
      L2 Cache:
    4 MB
      Memory:
    2 GB
      Bus Speed:
    800 MHz

    Most of the time a perception of general slow performance is the result of installing third party junk alleged to speed up, "clean" or "optimize" your Mac, or to look for viruses that don't exist. Ideally you would know what you installed so you can uninstall it, but if you don't know or aren't sure there are techniques such as Safe Mode and creating a temporary user account to confirm that suspicion.
    If you open Activity Monitor it may show a process, or processes, that occupy a lot of your system's time.
    Slowness confined solely to web browser activity is often the result of an inexorable progress toward websites that demand ever more processor-intensive tasks. If your slow performance is strictly limited to web browsing, you might try disabling Flash by either uninstalling it, or use utilities such as ClickToFlash that allow you to control what Flash content gets loaded. Flash in itself is not inherently evil, but there is nothing to stop websites or the advertisers who pay for them from writing horrible Flash code that can do everything from hogging 100% of your CPU's time to causing random crashes. You can watch Activity Monitor as in the above to correlate these troublesome web pages with performance degradation.
    You are correct; if your computer shipped with Tiger you may certainly revert to it. I forgot that Tiger was shipping on new Macs as recently as five years ago. To downgrade it would be necessary to completely erase your hard disk and boot with the Tiger installation DVD, followed by installing it anew. Such drastic measures are not necessary and you are unlikely to be satisfied with the results anyway.
    Assuming your system is free of third party parasitic junk attached to OS X in an ill-conceived attempt to improve upon it, that your hard disk drive is sound and the boot volume has enough free space to work with, by far the best performance-enhancing improvement would be to add more memory. Buy as much as your computer can use and that you can afford. 2 GB is not that much any more.
