Hackszine.com: Easiest cross-browser CSS min-height - 0 views

  •  
    Enforcing a minimum height for block elements in HTML is one of those few CSS tricks that you can't live without. There are still enough folks using IE6, unfortunately, and it doesn't support the min-height or min-width CSS parameters. This has caused the invention of a number of different hacks and browser-conditional style sheets to get the desired effect.

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.

A List Apart: Articles: Understanding Web Design - 0 views

  • Architecture (the kind that uses steel and glass and stone) is also an apt comparison—or at least, more apt than poster design. The architect creates planes and grids that facilitate the dynamic behavior of people. Having designed, the architect relinquishes control. Over time, the people who use the building bring out and add to the meaning of the architect’s design.
  • Web design is the creation of digital environments that facilitate and encourage human activity; reflect or adapt to individual voices and content; and change gracefully over time while always retaining their identity.
  • Great web designs are like great buildings. All office buildings, however distinctive, have lobbies and bathrooms and staircases. Websites, too, share commonalities.

  • The experienced web designer, like the talented newspaper art director, accepts that many projects she works on will have headers and columns and footers. Her job is not to whine about emerging commonalities but to use them to create pages that are distinctive, natural, brand-appropriate, subtly memorable, and quietly but unmistakably engaging.

mezzoblue § CSS Crib Sheet - 0 views

  • Name classes/IDs based on function, not appearance. If you create a .smallblue class, and later get a request to change the text to large and red, the class stops making any form of sense. Instead use descriptive classes like .copyright and .pullquote.
  • When in doubt, validate.
  • When relying on floats for layouts, make sure they clear properly.
