Author Getting there with new site!
Murray *TMM*

2004-04-24, 5:28 pm

Thanks to Joe Roasthorse's suggestion, I have about licked the bottom corner
thing on my site redesign.

As far as I can tell this works in everything but IE5x/Mac - can you confirm
that for me please?

http://www.great-web-sights.com/new/page5.asp

What I have done is to create the following CSS -

#corners {
background-image: url(images/bl.gif);
position: relative;
margin: 0 auto;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 764px;
z-index: 200;
height: 20px;
top: -20px;
left: 1px;
}
#rightCorner {
background-image: url(images/br.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: right;
height: 20px;
width: 500px;
position: relative;
margin: 0 2px 0 auto;
}

that manages the following HTML -

<div id="corners">
<div id="rightCorner"></div>
</div> <!-- End corners div -->

This is an outer division with a non-repeating background image, and an
inner division with a non-repeating background image aligned right. The
inner division is also aligned right by virtue of the auto margin on the
left and the fixed width.

The outer division is centered by virtue of the auto left and right and the
fixed width. And since both divisions are positioned, I can independently
adjust the location of the background images.

It's a very clever and simple solution, but it is not working in IE5x/Mac.

Does anyone have a clue why or what I could do to kick that browser into
submission?

Bottom left corner curve extends past the left vertical line and the lower

FWIW, it looks like everything lines up good in IE6. In Firebird 0.7, the
bottom left corner and the bottom right corner appear to be shifted one
pixel to the left of where they should be for proper alignment. If that
doesn't make sense, I'll send you a screen shot.

Hi! Murray
I'm not sure but you might try this its a quote from Redesigning with CSS
Rounded Corners
"If I make any of the text a fixed pixel size the bottom of the box goes all
pear-shaped in Mozilla. So if you're using this method, size your text with
percentages, points, or ems."

Looking good, Murray.

I liked the little buttons better with the dark ring around them.

FWIW .. The page on the Home Page link (

corner in FF but in NN 7 ( on this page ) it does but is reversed and the
jaggedness is on the right side.

Interesting. In Firebird 0.7, the bottom corners appeared to be shifted to
the right by one pixel. If you re-size the browser window, it seems that the
corners are shifted by a pixel when the browser width is an even number.
They line up correctly if the browser width is an odd number.

I'm getting the same thing your seeing in Opera7, Mozilla FF, and NN7. If he
removes the left: 1px; from #cornerFloat and changes the width on the
#bodyWrapper from 761px to 762px that will clear up though.

That page uses a completely different method of alignment (based on floats)
which I am not happy with.

The page in question - http://www.great-web-sights.com/new/page5.asp - is
using a much simpler method suggested by Joe {Roasthorse} that is not using
floats at all. That's the one I am interested in. And it appears to only
be out of alignment on FF. Is that true?

It is one pixel off at the bottom when the browser width is an even number.
It aligns correctly when the browser width is an odd number.

In FF and Opera too. Seems fine on NN7 and IE6. Changing the bodyWrapper to
762 seems to clear it up and doesn't effect the other browsers.

I'm at work, so all I have here is Firebird 0.7 and IE6. I get the
misalignment in FB, but not in IE.

Trent:

Check now in FF and Opera. I have changed bodyWrapper to 762 and it looks
good to me.

I still have the problem with IE5/Mac, however.

It looks good in FF, NN7, IE6 and Opera (PC) , I know you don't care about
Opera but it works anyway. No Mac to help out with the original request.

So it's the 3 borders thing, you think? I have set the containing division
to an even number.

As it is right now it looks fine in everything except IE5x/Mac....

Murray, FWIW I did a couple of control-+s to increase the text size--it
takes 3 or 4 to make the thing blow up--at some point there's only so
much you can do about that, I would think?
