How to get Cross Browser Compatibility Every Time | Anthony Short | Web Design & Develo... - 0 views

  • Here is a quick summary for those of you who don't want to read the whole article: Always use strict doctype and standards-compliant HTML/CSS Always use a reset at the start of your css Use opacity:0.99 on text elements to clean up rendering in Safari Never resize images in the CSS or HTML Check font rendering in every browser. Don't use Lucida Size text as a % in the body, and as em's throughout All layout divs that are floated should include display:inline and overflow:hidden Containers should have overflow:auto and trigger hasLayout via a width or height Don't use any fancy CSS3 selectors Don't use transparent PNG's unless you have loaded the alpha

    Cross-browser compatibility is one of the most time consuming tasks for any web designer. We've seen many different articles over the net describing common problems and fixes. I've collated all the information I could find to create some coding conventions for ensuring that your site will work first time in every browser. There are some things you should consider for Safari and Firefox also, and IE isn't always the culprit for your CSS woes.

Hacked Off with CSS? - Web-Design - 0 views

  •  
    For those not familiar with CSS Hacks, they are ways of using styles/classes that only apply to particular browsers. They are used to overcome the display problems mentioned previously by exploiting CSS structure and code. Most involve simple punctuation tricks to fool the problematic browser into accepting a different style to the browsers that display correctly.

Yahoo! UI Library: Graded Browser Support - 0 views

  • Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web and director of the W3C, has said it best: “Anyone who slaps a ‘this page is best viewed with Browser X’ label on a Web page appears to be yearning for the bad old days, before the Web, when you had very little chance of reading a document written on another computer, another word processor, or another network.”
  • Methodologies including layered development via progressive enhancement, Unobtrusive Javascript, and Hijax ensure that higher layers don’t disrupt lower layers. However, representative testing of the core experience is critical. If you choose to adopt a Graded Browser support regime for your own web applications, be sure your site’s core content and functionality is accessible without images, CSS, and JS. Ensure that the keyboard is adequate for task completion and that when your site is accessed by a C-grade browser all advanced functionality prompts are hidden.

Actual Browser Sizes (final) - Baekdal.com - 0 views

  • in order to support 95% of your visitors, you need to design for a maximum size of 776x424px
  •  
    The final section "What size do I need to support?" has the findings summary, but the entire article is a very worthwhile read.
  •  
    This is a creative example of quantitative user research. According to the findings from this article the "above the fold" size that will apply to the most people browsing is 776px wide by 424px high. This takes into account the browser chrome and surfing w/o being maximized. I think this study should be performed regularly, every couple of years perhaps to follow display size changes.

Web Designer Notebook » How to use Modernizr - 0 views

  • Modernizr doesn’t actually magically enable these properties for browsers that don’t support them. It just tells the page whether that feature is supported on the browser the visitor is using or not.
  • To install Modernizr, download the file from this page. Then, on your site’s head tag, add a link to the file. For example: ?1<script src="js/modernizr-1.0.min.js"></script> The second step is to include on your html tag a class of “no-js”: ?1<html class="no-js"> Why add this tag? Because that will be the default state of the page. If JavaScript (js) isn’t on, then Modernizr won’t work at all (and probably other features of your site won’t work either…), so it’s good that we have a fallback for that case. If JavaScript is indeed enabled, once that page is loaded on the browser, that class will be replaced dynamically and it may look something like this: ?1<html class="js canvas canvastext geolocation rgba hsla no-multiplebgs borderimage borderradius boxshadow opacity no-cssanimations csscolumns no-cssgradients no-cssreflections csstransforms no-csstransforms3d no-csstransitions  video audio cufon-active fontface cufon-ready">

    "There is a tool that came to make our lives as progressive web designers a bit easier: Modernizr. In this short tutorial, learn how to apply this handy script to maximum effect on your sites."

Everything You Know About CSS Is Wrong | Digital Web Magazine: Rachel Andrew - 0 views

  •  
    The easy way to use CSS2.1 to solve difficult cross-browser layout issues: CSS tables solve all the problems encountered when using absolute positioning or floats to create multi-column layouts in modern browsers. Specifying the value table for the display property of an element allows you to display the element and its descendants as though they're table elements. The main benefit of CSS table-based layouts is the ability to easily define the boundaries of a cell so that we can add backgrounds and so on to it-without the semantic problems of marking up non-tabular content as a HTML table in the document.

CSS Compatibility and Internet Explorer - 0 views

    A chart displaying IE compatibility to CSS from version 5 to 8
  •  
    With each new release of Windows Internet Explorer, support for the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) standard has steadily improved. Internet Explorer 6 was the first fully CSS Level 1-compliant version of Internet Explorer. Windows Internet Explorer 8 is planned to be a fully CSS Level 2.1-compliant browser, and will support some features of CSS 3. If the browsers your Web site is targeting include earlier versions of Internet Explorer, however, you want to know the level of CSS compliance for those as well. This article provides an at-a-glance look at CSS compliance across recent versions of Internet Explorer, including support in Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1 for Developers and planned support in the final version of Internet Explorer 8.

Digital Web Magazine - Creative Use of PNG Transparency in Web Design - 0 views

  • PNG, GIF, and JPEG The PNG image has been widely overlooked by the web design community—and mostly for good reason. Until recently, it hasn’t been possible to take full advantage of the format and have it work reliably in all browsers. But, with proper PNG support in Internet Explorer 7, and some handy JavaScript and CSS tricks to account for older browsers, we can use PNG images to greatly enhance our design vocabulary.

Google Web Search Switch to new Ajax-Powered Search Results - 0 views

  •  
    Google recently tested a new interface for search results. The test didn't include any new feature and Google even loaded the standard search results page to display the results. An important notable change is the new format was that Google didn't load a new page to display the results and browsers didn't send proper referrals when clicking on search results.
