Question on the known solution to the "Three pixel text jog" problem

Hello,
I'm "browser-checking" my website using Dreamweaver CS4 tool for that. I've got in various places the "three pixel text jog" IE problem. I followed the link to solution proposed by DW. It says I should add an IE conditional statement in the <head> part, so that I can define the CSS zoom property for that particular element. Hence, something like that:
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
#Content p { zoom: 1; } /* three pixel text jog IE bug */
</style>
<![endif]--> 
(assuming the problem occurs for a <p> inside my #Content div.)
My question is: can I replace this by
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
#Content * { zoom: 1; } /* three pixel text jog IE bug */
</style>
<![endif]--> 
For another browser problem (prevent the browsers from using some of their own default settings), it was advised to reset the margin, padding and border properties using:
   border: 0;
   margin: 0;
   padding: 0;
(although in my case I had to later remove border: 0; because it would prevent default buttons of forms to be displayed as buttons.)
Does this * really mean "anything"? Is it valid as used above for fixing the three pixel text jog problem? If not, do I really have to define this zoom property for any single HTML element for which it occurs? (It currently occurs for some headers, <div>, "<div> <div>" sequence, some <p>.)
Any comment welcome...
Emilie
P.S.: I tried it and DW doesn't flag that problem any more, but I'm unsure how much I can trust it.

The behavior is unexpected. The file paths are
correct?

  • IE 6 - I really can't get rid of the 3-pixel text jog

    Hello,
    I'm afrait that's a bit more of the same about the 3-pixel text jog. I'm testing a website in IE6, have spent a whole day trying to figure out how to get rid of this jog, tried various solutions found in this forum and on the web, and nothing works. I don't understand why the zoom property works for most people except me!
    The website is here: http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/
    I've put background colors to the main div tags to check the layout, so that's why it looks funny.
    I wouldn't be that bothered with a 3-pixel extra gap between elements if it wasn't turning some page layout upside down. For these pages, the content zone (light blue background) jumps down until the side menu bottom edge (yellow background).
    Examples of the problem:
    http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/research.html
    http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/support/training.html
    http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/about/contact/enquiries.html
    (All other pages will show you how it's meant to be displayed.)
    If someone has an idea, I'd really appreciate to hear about it!
    Emilie
    P.S.: I also attach a screenshot to show what I'm seeing. This is in IE 6 on Windows XP emulated on Mac OS X 10.5 via VMware, so perhaps this problem only occurs with this computer configuration (which would then solve the problem!).

    If that may help anyone, I eventually managed to solve this problem! Here is the solution in "my" case. I thought it was only the 3-pixel text jog problem, but I needed two corrections and therefore I suspect I had two problems mixed—making it a total nightmare to debug for a newbie because the widely documented 3-pixel text jog fix didn't work.
    Context : in this page structure, the elements in trouble in IE 6 are the divs #SideMenu (the side menu, orangish background colour in the attached screenshot)  and #Content (the content area, blueish background colour). #SideMenu is floated left and has a width of 16 em. #Content is not floated and has a left-margin of 16 em (no width, it's supposed to take whatever is left on the page and the page is allowed to extend from 770 pixels to 970 pixels in width).
    Problem: for some pages with this HTML structure (and just nothing fancy inside #Content), the entire #Content div drops down until the top of #Content matches the bottom of #SideMenu.
    I needed two fixes, which I both coded to be for IE6 only using IE conditional comments.
    Fix 1: A new CSS rule for #Content that (re)sets the left margin to 16.5 em. That gives more room to the divs and the entire #Content div isn't dropping down any longer. However, after setting this up, some other pages started to show some problems: part of the content of #Content would drop down (e.g. a table inside #Content).
    Fix 2: applying the zoom: 1 property to #Content fixed this second problem.
    I hope this makes sense and might help someone else.

  • Three Pixel Text Jog

    When I do a Browser Compatibility Check using Dreamweaver CS3
    I received the error Three Pixel Text Jog.
    When I double click on the error, the following html gets
    highlighted:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1",
    {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif",
    imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
    var CollapsiblePanel1 = new
    Spry.Widget.CollapsiblePanel("CollapsiblePanel1",
    {contentIsOpen:false});
    </script>
    I've read up on Three Pixel Text Jog and understand that when
    anonymous line boxes (boxes that contain inline content) are
    adjacent to a float, a 3px gap appears between the line box and the
    edge of the float.
    But this doesn't seem relevant to my problem. Or does it?
    Anyone?

    The behavior is unexpected. The file paths are
    correct?

  • Insurt photo and get message issue id="THREE_PIXEL_JOG" name="Three Pixel Text Jog"/

    I insert a photo size 300 x225 and when I check it the size is 3X3 what is wrong.

    My wild, flat out guess is you have placed the image without an html width or height attribute and your id of "THREE_PIXEL_JOG" is set to a height and width of 3px in the css.
    If that's not the case, we'll need to see your code and image. A link to your malfunctioning page, here in the forum, would be the best way to do that.

  • Capture the Invoice Split Reason and update it in the invoice header text

    Hi All,
    We have a requirement where we need to capture the invoice split reason and update the reason in the one of the invoice header text.
    Problem is the routine where the split criteria is being determined is called a number of times, so how will we determine at what time of time do we need to capture the split reason. I mean at what iteration of the routine will we know that the split value is the right value.
    Is there any way to determine the number of iterations of a routine written for split?
    Require your valuable inputs for this issue....
    TIA
    Regards,
    Sharadendu

    Hi,
    Is your invoice split reason maintained in the header or item level?
    Try coding your logic in user exit MV45AFZZ and update header text using text id and save it in header text using
    FM [SAVE_TEXT|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/en/d6/0db8ef494511d182b70000e829fbfe/content.htm].
    Before this logic use FM [READ_TEXT|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/d6/0db8c8494511d182b70000e829fbfe/content.htm] to determine if the header text is already updated. If yes,exit else save your HEADER_TEXT using SAVE_TEXT.
    This code can be written under FORM_USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE.

  • I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 that all share the same iTunes account (apps, music, etc), but I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps?

    I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library.  The problem is I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps? This is probably a common problem with families wanting to share apps and music without realizing the issues created by this approach. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates. The problem would be how to keep all the apps, etc from being deleted off the second and third phones that were originally loaded from the one iTunes acct. Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, someone out there can help me??  Please?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

  • I want to know what can i do if i forgot the three account question?

    I redeemed $25 in my account by the app card, but i cant buy items in the games because it said that i need to answer the three questions. But i forgot the questions, what can i do for it? i want to know if i can use the money.

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within, I think, about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

  • How to get back to the three security questions?

    I was in the app store on ipod touch and got the three security quistions.  I proceeded to answer them.  On the third quistion I went to type an answer and evidently hit something and the that screen disappeared.  Not sure if I completed it or maybe accidently answered the third question by accidently hitting a key and finishing.
    My question is how do I log in and get back to change these three questions?  When I login I just see the one security question.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hi Mark...
    Try "resetting" your iPod then try the App Store again.
    Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears.  Slide to power off.  After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.
    If you can't login to the App Store, tap Settings > Store > Sign In
    If you can sign in there then try the App Store one more time.

    It's a problem that Apple is having with their App updating system.  The best solution is to be patient, and wait for Apple to solve their systemic problem.

  • This is a second question on the same topic. I want to create multiple drags to each drop. I give the drags group names. Step three: run line to drops. Step 4: click object actions Step 5: unclick all but the one group name. It works for 2 out of 3 groups

    I hope that someone will answer this. I want to create a drag and drop.  Each drop has multiple drag answers. I group the drags and give them a Type name. I initial the drops. I go to Object actions. I unclick "accept all" I unclick all but the group I want to go to that drop.  When I preview, two of the drops accept the three choices that they are supposed to accept. But the first one I try, only accepts one choice and lets the others bounce back.  I'd also like to have a reset button which I can't find.  I've spent hours and hours working on this.

    Got it.  When you go to unclick all the choices except the group you want, you have to also change the count. Even if the drags are in a group, the count still considers them individually

  • Hallo! I have a question to the following problem.

    Hallo! I have a question to the following problem. I have to compare data. I get every 10 ms 3 data from a sensor. I must save the last 5 measurements. Compare the data and then I have to make a decision. Can I save the last 5 measurements with a shift register?? How can I save it, because I get continuously the data in the shift register. How can I compare the data when I put them in a cluster, save a cluster every 10ms and the I want to compare them with each other.
    I thank you very much for your help!
    thomas

    If I understand you correctly, you need to operate on the last five data sets from your three sensors.
    Simply expand the right shift register to store the data from the last few iterations (see attached image). Since I don't know how you need to compare the data, I have just placed a generic VI that operates on the history data.
    (Please attach your VI if you want me to give you a more specific solution.)
