i'm using css3pie (for internet explorer 8) to apply effects like border radius to divs on my page it works but not on input text
.header input[type="text"]{
border: 2px solid #696;
text-align: center;
width: 150px;
-webkit-border-radius: 8px;
-moz-border-radius: 8px;
border-radius: 8px;
background: #fff;
box-shadow:5px 5px 5px #000;
-webkit-box-shadow:5px 5px 5px #000;
-moz-box-shadow:5px 5px 5px #000;
behavior: url(PIE.htc);
}
and here's the head code
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="main.css">
<!--[if IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie.css">
<![endif]-->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />
any advice please ?
There shouldn't be a problem with input elements in CSS3Pie, provided you're using px measurements, which you are; the docs mention problems with proportional sized elements in the known issues page, but that isn't your issue.
Given that you've got other elements in the same page working, there are only other likely issues:
First is the hasLayout issue. The resolution to that is generally to add something like zoom:1 to the styles.
Second is the disappearing borders issues, for which the solution is to work with the position and z-index styles.
Both these issues are discussed on the CSS3Pie known issues page, along with details of how to resolve them.

I have had to put all of the code here so you can see my question in context with this code for a basic website. The part of this code I'm referring to is the media query coded below as:
# media (max-width: 700px)
body { background-color: #fff; }
I've done some research on media queries as required and know that in this code that when the page is at width 700px or less it will become the color of #fff which I think is a white color. But what would be the purpose of putting the code here besides a teaching exercise? Is it so that it will fit a mobile phone if the web page where to be opened on such a device? I thought that instead of using a media query that the width of the webpage to fit a device like a mobile phone was established in the meta tags viewport description. Please bear in mind I'm a newbie and just starting to learn about coding about a month ago.

It looks like your code is missing a bracket for the media query. I believe it should look like this. When the window is less than 700px the background is white. When greater than 700px it's a gray. Try re-sizing the window to see what I mean.
#media (max-width: 700px) {
body {
background-color: #fff;
}
div {
width: auto;
margin: 0 auto;
border-radius: 0;
padding: 1em;
}
}

Look at following JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ep6mtoa7/ (Btw. there was a missing { after the Media Query that I inserted here)
#media (max-width: 700px) {
body {
background-color: #fff;
}
div {
width: auto;
margin: 0 auto;
border-radius: 0;
padding: 1em;
}
}
If you increase the width of the box, you will see a grey background and in the middle will be a Box with rounded edges. If you decrease the width of the box, you will see that the grey background disappers and the box disappears too, but the white Background stays. The real need is because the box has a height, so only the box part would be white and the rest (top and bottom area) would still be grey.
Look at following JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ep6mtoa7/1/ (I removed the background-color: #fff)
You will see that the bottom part is still grey. If you put in the background-color part it will be white.
To your other question: The media query looks for device width, so mostly devices have a smaller width than your PC would have. The meta-tag part says something like if the zoom should kick in or if it's even allowed.
So if you saying that your page should be 1024px wide, the phone would fit the page into a 1024px viewport and you don't have to zoom in/out as an user.
At this point I am not sure if it's smart to go so deep into it, maybe first learn the basics more and then go deeper. But I like the effort you putting in, also google and read read read read as much blogs and stackoverflow threads as you can, this is a must do and will improve you alot!
I have just implemented VS 2010's basic horizontal menu that comes when you start a new website. Pages look fine in my root.
When I instituted a /blog/ application (blogengine.net), I made some changes ... put my own logo there, favicon, etc., and attempted to put my menu in there. It doesn't appear to be conflicting with any other menu classes in any other stylesheet. I even renamed the class to topmenu in the code and in the stylesheet to make sure. And strangely, it looks fine in VS in design mode.
So I triple checked to see that no .css conflicts, so the code still look like this:
<div class="clear hideSkiplink">
<asp:Menu ID="NavigationMenu" runat="server" CssClass="menu" EnableViewState="false"
IncludeStyleBlock="false" Orientation="Horizontal">
<Items>
<asp:MenuItem NavigateUrl="http://rtn.org/Default.aspx" Text="Home" />
<asp:MenuItem NavigateUrl="http://rtn.org/About.aspx" Text="About RTN" />
<asp:MenuItem NavigateUrl="http://rtn.org/resources.aspx" Text="RTN Resources" />
<asp:MenuItem NavigateUrl="http://rtn.org/advertise.aspx" Text="Advertise with RTN" />
<asp:MenuItem NavigateUrl="http://rtn.org/donate.aspx" Text="Donate to RTN" />
</Items>
</asp:Menu>
</div>
And the CSS looks like this:
div.hideSkiplink
{
background-color: #3a4f63;
width: 100%;
}
div.menu
{
padding: 4px 0px 4px 8px;
}
div.menu ul
{
list-style: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
width: auto;
}
div.menu ul li a, div.menu ul li a:visited
{
background-color: #465c71;
border: 1px #4e667d solid;
color: #dde4ec;
display: block;
line-height: 1.35em;
padding: 4px 20px;
text-decoration: none;
white-space: nowrap;
}
div.menu ul li a:hover
{
background-color: #bfcbd6;
color: #465c71;
text-decoration: none;
}
div.menu ul li a:active
{
background-color: #465c71;
color: #cfdbe6;
text-decoration: none;
}
But as you'll see by this picture, for some reason, the display:block just isn't working for whatever reason in my /blog/ subdirectory master page as it is in my root master page:
Does anybody have an idea why this is the case? Again, it looks good in VS in design mode. It's just when I upload it, display:block doesn't work properly. I've fiddled with it for hours, but can't reproduce the menu, as it should be, in my /blog/ subdirectory. Any suggestions would be truly appreciated!
Almost always this happens because you have relative links to your CSS that aren't linking to the correct places. On your other pages, the stylesheets are displaying correctly because the relative link is to your correct site root. However, on your subdomain, the root is most likely to that subdomain and not to the actual root of your site.
So for instance, if your link is normally:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/mystyle.css">
the link is pointing to http://yoursite.com/foo/css/style.css.
However, when you're linking from your blog, even though the relative link is the same, it is now linking to http://yoursite.com/blog/foo/css/style.css.
To fix it, try putting in absolute links to make sure that this is the problem:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://yoursite.com/blog/foo/css/style.css">
If it works after trying that, go back and make sure those relative links go to the right place and that you're being specific enough.
I'm working on my company site, mainly on impoving CSS. I would like to eliminate a lot of little images that create rounded corners, shadows and so on. CSS3 is a perfect choice, but still lot of our users use IE7 and IE8 so I need to prepare this site for them too.
I found a lot of good opinions about CSS3PIE, do I downloaded it and tried to use, but my IE8 doesn't want to cooperate :). It says: Access is denied to: PIE.htc Line: 0 Char: 0 Code: 0. I tried to put files to one folder and to differents folders, check this on the server and local... I have always the same information.

}
Edit: I've added code samples
I've solved this issue changing line endings of PIE.htc to Unix (not Windows).
Tested on Windows7 + IE7 and IE8.
Hope this help you!
If css3pie is running as a local file rather than on a web server, you need to give the full path in the behavior: property, such as:
behavior:url(C:/foo/PIE.htc);
I tried placing PIE.htc file at the root file or next to (ex: html file). And in css file used exactly same attribute like this .yourClass{behavior: url(PIE.htc);}.
Actually relate your htc file to html page rather than css file. And it worked for me. :)
After my Browser was today updated to Firefox 7.0 on some of my pages elements are replaced with ... (elipses) and the z-index of items is all messed up.
I tried the same site in 3.6.2 and 6.0 and it is working fine. As soon so the machine updates to 7.0 or 8.0 beta it now longer renders so the problem is related to firefox.
I made a sample html page that shows the problem.
In the upper div i would expect the image to display in the button us it does in the lower div but it is replaced with .... It seems to be the text-overflow: ellipsis; css but why would this change on updating?
Does anyone have a suggestion?

Firefox 7 is the first Firefox release to implement text-overflow: ellipsis. It also implements what the spec said when Firefox 7 shipped, which was that if only one value is provided then it applies to both start and end sides of the overflowing container. In your case your buttons are positioned so they overflow the left edge of the container, so they're overflowing and get converted to ellipses.
Based on feedback from the experience with Firefox 7, the spec has since been changed to a behavior that's more compatible with the way IE originally implemented text-overflow: ellipsis, but there may be more changes happening there. The wonders of unstable specs that are written to not match deployed browser behavior...
My page has a resolution of 800x480. It has been designed as such. Now in Firefox (I have control over the viewers machine), I want to zoom the whole screen to 800x600. I know that there is a zoom option, but that does it proportionally (e.g. 150%). Is it possible to somehow to only stretch the 480 to 600 (a sort of a zoom).
I have a valid reason to do this and am aware of the aspect ratio issues that could arise.
Thank you for your time.
You can do this in Firefox 3.5 (Gecko 1.9.1) using CSS3 2d transforms.
Here's an example with two DIVs where the second is stretched from 800x480 to 800x600.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
html, body
{
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
}
.viewport
{
width: 800px;
height: 480px;
background-color: gold;
color: #000;
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
}
.stretched
{
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5);
-moz-transform: scaleY(1.25);
-moz-transform-origin: 0 0;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="viewport"><button>Normal</button></div>
<div class="viewport stretched"><br><br><button>Stretched</button></div>
</body>
</html>

Using CSS transforms
You can use:
self.resizeTo(width, height);
Although I think Firefox has a default setting in the preferences which prevents this from working.
