| Maxim 26-Apr-2006 [1157] | maybe it crapped out while transfering, try copying the file again? |
| Louis 26-Apr-2006 [1158] | Maxim, you are right, the file is corrupted during transfer. Thanks! |
| Maxim 26-Apr-2006 [1159] | glad I could help. |
| Louis 26-Apr-2006 [1160] | Turned out that the server did not like progressive jpg files. |
| Alek_K 26-Apr-2006 [1161] | not possible - rather ".JPG" instead of ".jpg" |
| Anton 26-Apr-2006 [1162] | The server just serves files. It should not care what they contain. You can check if the file completed with: probe info? http://www.myserver.com/path/to/your.jpg to see if it has the right size, at least. |
| DideC 27-Apr-2006 [1163] | Common mistake is case of the filename and the way it's write in the html. It happens ofen when you test on Windows and the web server is under *nix. |
| Anton 27-Apr-2006 [1164] | Yes, upper and lowercase. |
| Chris 17-May-2006 [1165] | Updated: my 'Anywhere' style sheet for Make-Doc Anywhere. Please contact me if you have any problems/weirdness with older pages... |
| Pekr 17-May-2006 [1166] | it was already nice - just the width was too think to my liking, making even short document long ... (not bad thing when you want to show your boss :-) |
| Chris 17-May-2006 [1167] | Thanks :o) It's merely a revision, mainly fixing paragraph/heading margins. |
| Louis 20-May-2006 [1168x2] | Thanks, you guys. I was using the wrong case. |
Do the search engines index the content of pdf pages? | |
| Anton 20-May-2006 [1170] | Google parses pdf files. |
| Louis 20-May-2006 [1171x2] | That is good. Thans, Anton. |
Thans = thanks | |
| Anton 21-May-2006 [1173] | Anyone got a direct apple.com link to download Quicktime 7 Firefox plugin on WinXP ? |
| Anton 22-May-2006 [1174] | I got it. I didn't want to give them my email address. |
| Frank 22-May-2006 [1175] | You can use www.jetable.org |
| Henrik 22-May-2006 [1176] | anton, AFAIK you don't have to? oh well :-) |
| Anton 22-May-2006 [1177] | Yes, I shouldn't have assumed it was needed, but I gave them a Yahoo email anyway, so no drama. |
| Henrik 22-May-2006 [1178] | I'm sure they'll spend the rest of the day in agony that they didn't get your real email address. :-) |
| DideC 28-May-2006 [1179] | Question to HTML / CSS gurus I have to display Rebol code in an HTML page. I use <PRE> tags. Problem : whatever I use (Cell, Div, Pre) the wrap only occurs based on the window width, not the one I specified in the tag. So, how to force PRE text to wrap in a specific width ? |
| Geomol 28-May-2006 [1180x3] | Can it be solved using newlines? Like: <html> <head> <title>test</title> </head> <body> <pre>line 1 line 2 line 3 </pre> </body> </html> |
I don't think, you can force a wrap at a certain place. It's in the nature of HTML, as it's not wysiwyg. | |
From http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html32 A few user agents support the WIDTH attribute. It provides a hint to the user agent of the required width in characters. The user agent can use this to select an appropriate font size or to indent the content appropriately. It's not the width of the line. | |
| DideC 28-May-2006 [1183] | I have tried Width, but it only shrinks the box, not the text inside (almoast on FF). Odd OMO. |
| Sunanda 28-May-2006 [1184] | <pre> literally means "as written" -- if there are no line breaks in the text, then there will be none on the page. *** Some lines in <pre> tags can be accidently enormously long, and need to be wrapped by hand. That's one reason REBOL.org offers you a user-setting for the point at which you want Mailing list messages to be forcibly wrapped: http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/cpt-update-profile.r (See Appearance and settings / Point at which Mailing List Archive messages will start to wrap.) |
| [unknown: 9] 28-May-2006 [1185x2] | Dideir, yeah we ran into this recently in allowing people to escape code inside our Wiki. We allow Rebol, HTML, etc. At first it seems counter intuitive. But this is the way of HTML. Aside from the straight forward concept as Sunanda mentioned, if you are willing to process the code a little you can count the characters of the longest line, and scale the text to match the final output. A couple of points dropped on a font stil are readable, and many sentences still fit. Another is to encode the whole thing, in other words convert all the "<" for example to escape sequences. Now HTML will wrap everything automatically. |
Doh..."Didier" (I was tricked by looking at DideC). | |
| Sunanda 28-May-2006 [1187] | Your other alternative is to use the CSS overflow propery
eg
pre {overflow: auto} or overflow:scroll
The problem there is the inconsistency between browsers......
Good ones will add scroll bars only when needed. Common and bad ones
will add horizontal and vertical scroll bars at all times for every
pre box. It's ugly.
|
| BrianH 28-May-2006 [1188] | You can specify overflow-y and overflow-x separately if you prefer. |
| Chris 29-May-2006 [1189] | Bad ones = Internet Explorer. Even version 7 they haven't really figured out how most people use overflow: auto. Oneliners become unreadable. |
| [unknown: 9] 29-May-2006 [1190] | Yup. |
| DideC 29-May-2006 [1191x2] | I have tried "Overflow: auto" (I just had a look to makedoc anywhere result to see how it handles that), but fall on the I.E. inconsistency. |
So in conclusion, there is nothing simply usable in the browser(s), I have to cut the line "myself". F..k !! | |
| [unknown: 9] 29-May-2006 [1193x2] | Yup. |
In Qtask we autocut strings loner than X spaces so that webpages don't get screwed up. Slashdot does the same/ | |
| Alek_K 29-May-2006 [1195] | Well - there is property in CSS - 3 - but add this in style
pre {
white-space: pre-wrap; /* css-3 */
white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; /* Mozilla, since 1999 */
white-space: -pre-wrap; /* Opera 4-6 */
white-space: -o-pre-wrap; /* Opera 7 */
word-wrap: break-word; /* Internet Explorer 5.5+ */
}

|
| Allen 29-May-2006 [1196] | Another option is to show in a textarea and set the rows & columns |
| DideC 29-May-2006 [1197] | Alek : I will try that this evening. |
| Pekr 19-Jul-2006 [1198x2] | one question re CSS. I have small template, where I put two images one under the other. You can look at http://www.xidys.com/hanka. But I will need to cut some images, and that fact destroys aspect ratio for me :-) I would like to ask, if, in CSS, I can define image the way that it would not be scaled? My definition looks like: .photo img { width: 614px; height: 460px; } and in html: <div class="photo"><!--[obrazek 1]--><img src="obrazky/IMG_1361.JPG"/></div> |
I would like to have something like a face, where you insert image top-left corner, but it uses aspect effect, that once it reaches particular width or height, it is drawn to the face, but the other axis stays as-is, so the aspect radio is kept correct. With above definition, it simply scales image to defined width-height, and I have to properly cut image in xnview, counting pixel ratios .... and that is very boring job :-) | |
| Anton 19-Jul-2006 [1200] | http://rjohara.net/server/css-figures-captions/ |
| Pekr 19-Jul-2006 [1201] | how do I align text under the image? I mean - image itself has some white-border in it. The text looks far too left. I would like to align block of text following the image to the center, but not align center text itself ..... |
| Anton 19-Jul-2006 [1202x2] | The third image down has centred text on Firefox. |
(on my Firefox anyway) | |
| Alek_K 20-Jul-2006 [1204] | Pekr: 1. I don't know if i understand correctly, but if You give only one size (f.e. width), image will be scaled with aspect ratio to that size. You can set .photo size too of course (so it will not ruin Your layout) 2. Text under the image - I can't identify the problem. Can You give a link to it? |
| Pekr 20-Jul-2006 [1205x2] | Alek - thanks, I am already done with the problem. As for 2, I just wanted to center text under the image. But whole text block, not centered text itself - http://www.xidys.com/hanka/T-XI.html |
the text should be aligned to both sides, not centered. It is whole text block, which should be centered. http://www.xidys.com/hanka/F-VI-F-VII.html Can't express myself :-) | |
