Mouse Hover in some browsers displayed...

I noticed something funny while testing my website in browser labs. I have some css rules to change some background colors for mouse hover. In the browsers I tested, Firefox 4.0 for Windows seems to show these rules for approximately the center of the page (e.g. it acts as if there is a mouse hovering there).
Since this is not consistent between browsers, it would be preferable if the mouse didn't hover over pages at all (unless you can let us set where and do this for all browsers).
edit: actually this stopped and then reappeared, so it seems to be inconsistent even within the same browser. It's hard to tell if I messed up a css rule when the displayed page might be different in browserlab between refreshes (but without a change in my code).

Hi Travis,
Thanks for letting us know about this, we'll look into it. If your page is public, can you please post the url so we have a test case that demonstrates the behvavior?
Thanks,
Mark

Background nav image not displaying in some browsers...

Hi,
   I'm in the process of building a website template - still ironing out some bugs, but just discovered that the bacground image in my navigation bar isn't displaying on some browsers (including some versions of IE).

You have applied a height of "auto"to your menubar container, which gives it no height at all in some browsers. If you have a clue what height you would like to display for your menubar, give it, instead of:
    <div style="height: auto;" id="p7PMM_1" class="p7PMMh04">
Better yet, leave it in the CSS file, where you will find it when you go looking for it. You already assign a height there:
.p7PMMh04 {
    width: auto;
    height: 20px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 11px;
    font-weight: bold;
    background-image: url(http://home.roadrunner.com/~jgigandet/trinity/img/new_bk.gif);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-color: #000;
    text-align: left;
    line-height: normal;
Because your inline style of height:auto; has more proximity (is closer) to the element being styled, it overrides the style in the stylesheet and applies the height: auto; instead of allowing the height: 20px;

Navigation & Photo Page not displaying within some browsers

Hello,
I am using iWeb '08 and am having great difficulties trying to get my site cross browser compatible. The site is working perfectly on the Mac in Firefox 2 & Safari but not Firefox 3. It is also not displaying correctly in Firefox 2.0.0.13 and IE7 on my WinXP machine. Unfortunately the error is not just a cosmetic issue. The Main Navigation is not displaying on any page and only shows a bullet point where it is meant to be. The other error occurs in the Photo Template and the photos are not displaying. I am using a "Version 1 template" and did a test with a "version 2" template that provided the same errors.
Has anyone else had these problems???
The site is located at:

Making tooltip appear on other events (not just mouse hover)

Is there a way to make tooltip text appear besides merely the mouse hover event? For example, could you set it to appear with Click, Enter, Exit and/or Change?
And if you can, will those pesky Javascript warnings popup too?

I have three iPhone users here at work who are experiencing similar symptoms, also all starting yesterday afternoon (February 4, 2014). All events still appear in the calendars on their iPhones, but very few events appear in their calendars on iCloud.com website.
For days that show some items, viewing that day in "Day mode" on iCloud.com then causes the missing events to appear for that day. But some days show no events at all on iCloud.com, and viewing those days in "Day mode" does nothing.
All three users tend to have lots of "all-day" events on their calendars.
It is as though the iCloud.com website's calendar is not properly refreshing or displaying the events which are clearly still saved in their iCloud accounts.
(As a side, all three users can still see all events in Outlook on their PCs, which is set to sync with the iCloud accounts).
Anyone else seeing this or have any suggestions?

Mouse hover doesn't produce preview in an application

I use a Bible program called Logos 5. For months I have had an issue where my mouse hover over a reference doesn't produce a preview, but only in one area of the program - my personal notes.
Recevied an email from the comany that said,
That specific tool tip is one that we are relying on Apple to make a call back to us for it to appear. What this means is at some point you, or a piece of software you’ve installed, or changed settings from, has modified the Apple tool-tip settings which is, in this case, disabling that tool-tip. The fact that it does appear when you hold down a modifying key also points to the fact that this is a system setting that has been modified.
Any clue what program or setting could have interfered? I do not have this problem on an older iMac with the same program & files loaded.

And the call to the servlet is made on click of a link.
Why doesn't the documents() open in some browsers while it does in some.Similarly i want to open docx and rtf files from UCM also using the same code without downloading.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi.
Try following sample code:
Include cmfn tag library in your page
xmlns:cmfn="http://xmlns.oracle.com/webcenter/content/functions"
Use next EL Expression to get a Node url's (are the same methods as a Node in CP):
#{cmfn:getNodeById(yourdDocName).url.downloadUrl
#{cmfn:getNodeById(yourdDocName).url.renderUrl
Sample:
<af:goLink targetFrame="_blank" destination="#{cmfn:getNodeById('UCM676546').url.downloadUrl}"/>
You'll need connection to UCM configured in your WebCenter Portal Application because it will ask for the current IDC connection configured.
Regards.

Navbar font appears miniscule in some browsers

Why does the Navbar font size appear miniscule in some browsers, but fine in others?
My Website is paranormalstateillustrated.com
I'm using iWeb '08 version 2.0.4, "Darkroom" theme.
Navbar items appear miniscule in Safari version 3.1.2, but are "normal" when working in iWeb.
Navbar items (font size) appear fine in Firefox version 3.0.3- BUT I've had someone else say the Navbar links are too small when they use Firefox. What could cause this difference?
Should I just deselect the "Display navigation menu" in the Inspector, and build my own Navbar to help ensure all browsers display the same font/size?
Thank you for your input!

Roddy,
Thank you for your quick reply. I found why the Navbar appears miniscule in my Safari browser, and why it looked small in someone else's Firefox browser. It has to do with the "Preferences" of each browser.
SAFARI browser:
Select "Preferences" from the Safari pull-down menu.
Click on the "Appearance" tab.
Select a "Standard font" size large enough so it doesn't appear too small. Times 14 works okay.
FIREFOX browser:
Select "Preferences" from Firefox pull-down menu.
Select the "Content" tab.
Pick a larger font size under the "Fonts & Colors" section of the "Content".
That fixes the font size problem. It wasn't something "wrong" with iWeb.
I do, however, like your explanation that viewer's are seeing paranormal!
Thank you!

Mouse Hover Color in Horizontal Dropdown Navigation

Hi,
Mouse Hover color in the Horizontal Dropdown Navigation scheme is not changed even if you apply a different stylesheet. It remains the default blue. Is there a setting some where or it needs to be modified in the navigation scheme.
thanks
-Sachin

Sachin,
Are you talking about the mouse hover color for the dropdown menu entries? That stylesheet class is defined in a different stylesheet. Look in
<imageserver dir>\imageserver\plumtree\common\private\js\jsportalmenus\122846\styles\css\PTPMMenu.css.
The number might be different on your system. If you view the HTML source on a portalpage and search for PTPMMenu.css you will see the number your portal is using. The styleclasses you want to change in PTPMMenu.css are .PTPMMenuBody .hoverand .PTPMMenuBody .hover td. You might also need to change other classes with the highlight color depending on the type of entries you have in your menus.

Can flash3d effect font size in some browsers?

hello;
I have an swf that has many dynamic textfields;
a couple of them are inside of an mc that has been rotated in xyz-space via the properties panel;
these particular tf's are not displaying correctly in some browsers.
tf's are embedded.
any thoughts?
thanks.

I do not believe that it is actually an OS or browser-dependant problem.
I am on a XP, FF 3.6.12 and all tf's are fine;
but if I go to browsercam.com ( remote browsing site for development testing ) and test on their XP, FF 3.6.10 the tf's have the problem. I have also tested on many of their other setups ( various OS's, various browsers ) and almost all of their machines are demonstrating the problem.
it seems that only the tf's that are within a 3d mc are being affected ... I am in the process now of un-3d'ng the 3d_mc to see what happens ...
tf's are embedded.

CSS Style Problem in some browsers

I’m Using Dreamweaver Studio 8.0. on the PC.
Some of my CSS Styles info does not work in some browsers.
The “main_content” section of my site does not
display properly in some browsers.
Here is the CSS code:
#main_content {
position:absolute;
left:134px;
top:180px;
width:651px;
height:597px;
z-index:6;
border-top-width: medium;
border-right-width: medium;
border-bottom-width: medium;
border-left-width: medium;
border-left-style: none;
border-top-color: #0000CC;
border-right-color: #0000CC;
border-bottom-color: #0000CC;
border-left-color: #0000CC;
border-right-style: solid;
border-bottom-style: none;
It works fine in FireFox 1.5 and Netscape 8. But in IE 6.0.2
and Safari 2.0.3 the main content section:
1. moves to the far left of the page (behind a left side
image border)
2. loses its width restriction and fills to the right
whatever size monitor display it is on
3. loses the solid right border of this section
The “.copyright” info also does not display
properly
.copyright {
font-size: 9px;
background-color: #666666;
color: #FFFFFF;
Again, it works fine in FireFox 1.5 and Netscape 8. But in IE
6.0.2 and Safari 2.0.3 the copyright section:
1. does not change to the smaller font
2. does not change font color
3. has no background color
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
David

Here's something you need to know:

Wire values on Mouse Hover

Hi All,
I sometimes feel difficult to see the value of a wire while editing the VI. When "Retain Wire Values" is turned ON, I need to put a probe on that wire to see last executed value. Applying probe on every other wire while coding will result in lot of probes and also it will increase the coding time.
Having a way to view the wire value on Mouse Hover will be really useful. What I feel is, the value can be displayed as a tooltip or a dialog box similar to context help window which will disappear when mouse pointer is removed from the wire.

Mouse hover description - Character Limit

Hi,
I would like to know what is the character limit for the presenation column desctiption that we give in RPD?
Our customers are planning to have lengthy descriptions as part of mouse hover description.
Please let me know if you have any clue on it.
Thanks.
Edited by: user10682075 on Jul 15, 2011 9:37 AM

I've seen some very lengthy column and other object descriptions built into the RPD.
I've yet to see one get cut off.
However, looking through the documentation I don't see a specific reference to a limit on this field's input. Possibly this is because the structure of the RPD is XML and it can potentially handle as must text as you want to throw at it and store it in it CDATA[] encased element.
If you really want to test this you can do it your self by taking a block of text, doing a word count in MS Word or the like and copy and pasting the text into the description field, saving, and running a consistency check until you see if throw an error.
Cheers,
Christian

Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You

Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

Bubble Chart mouse hover issue

Hi,
we are facing problem in removing mouse hover data point in the bubble chart.
Requirement is such that we do not want to show a data point in mouse hover in a bubble chart.Since size of bubbles in the chart have been mapped with these values,these are necessarily shown as a data points in mouse hover.
Is there any means by which we can continue mapping size to these data values and still not show in the bubble chart mouse hover.
Thanks,
Deepa

Thanks for ur response
Actually I Require to show the mouse hover values for other data points except size.If I uncheck the "mouse hover option"...Mouse hover property will vanish at all.

IWeb hypertext links to pages from my site not "viewable" in some browsers

I am new to iWeb 08. iWeb created hypertext links to eleven pages from my "top level" site are not "clickable" or viewable in some browsers yet the hyperlinks I added on top page to other sites don't present a problem.
No problem with Safari or AOL Desktop Version 1.2 or Firefox browsers. However, AOL Ver 10.3.7 (rev 4136.310) only shows other site links and NOT the page links at the top of site page. Only a dot is visible where links to other pages in the site. I thought it could have been a Java Scripts problem so I updated my AOL to latest JAVA. Not concerned for my part but others with Mac AOL may have same problem.
Is there something I could do diferent at my site or is this another AOL shortcoming?

Gayle,
No solution yet. I am sure it is a shortcoming of AOL's Mac browser but am trying to contact AOL support (difficult now that they are free). I don't use their browser but there are probably those that do. I presume you don't have that problem when you use Safari, etc?
