Thank you Thank You Thank You!

The type of box that you could make that could help many would be white so that people could color-fill to the requirements of a given design. For instance, I need two different box styles, in five different colors.

One style, if colorable, could be duplicated and used for the 4 main navigation menus. Those colors are #F7EB16, #EC0F14, #6ABD45 and #9851A0.

The second style is for the middle pane on each content page. In their design document, the middle pane is slightly transparent, and the color is #91D6FB.

I've uploaded an example of their nav design is at: http://www.willamadden.com/ex-box.png

The nav panes are 250 px wide.

The example of the middle pane style has been uploaded as: http://www.willamadden.com/example-mid-pane.png

The middle pane is set to fluid, not fixed width.

Thank you, again, so much. I have been working all morning - 4 hours on this and still cannot get the desired result. I have not uploaded any of my latest efforts as they are all failures and I don't want to show on the dev site until something is working.

You are very kind, wonderful actually.

Willa

I'm seeing what you are seeing too.

With IE7, I'm seeing the Box on the left with the title missing as well. But I still see the rest of the pages normally. Do you?

I'm not sure why the title is missing, because the title is actually inside the same $content variable as the other contents. The fact that your contents actually is rendered, and not the title possibly points the problem only to the CSS that affects the title? I have also taken a look at the CSS codes, and they look really harmless.

I was able to view the Box in question on my own site with IE7, and the titles are rendered fine.

Is it possible

I have still not resolved my IE 7 issues with the boxes you so kindly created. Is it possible for you to take a quick look and see where the css is falling down in IE 7? The site is now at: http://www.willamadden.net/get_involved

The screenshot you posted was accurate for that page

4th Jan 2010, 01:56:42 AM

I had not yet applied the corners so it was pulling the standard from the system. Drupal and IE managed to turn the problem page into a zombie. So, I sent it off to an alternate universe and created a new page. It is working as all other pages. The only remaining issue now is from IE7 and my pane titles disappearing. So, my quest for IE solutions continues!!

Thank you again for your help. And, Happy New Year!

Seeing a different screen

31st Dec 2009, 10:00:00 AM

I am looking at a screen that is different from your screenshot. Here's my screenshot. My guess is that you probably have tried to continue to work on the issue, so I am not seeing the one you gave earlier.

This screenshot I took, is consistent across both Firefox, and IE8.

Enjoy using TBP an understatement!

I love the way the boxes work. And your instructions on how to put them together are excellent.

The problem in last post was with my CSS. I fixed it and all is well.

There is one last problem with IE7 & IE8 - when you click on the Workshops link the screen goes white and loses most of the CSS. The other links for Workshops are fine. It's very odd. Probably nothing to do with your boxes.

Here is a link to the screenshot: www.willamadden.com/wksps.png

The boxes work perfectly in Safari, and Firefox, and look fantastic, otherwise than stated, in IE versions.

Thanks so Much for all of your work! I will definitely be buying you some beers. Just as soon as my clients buy me some. :)

Looks fine in IE8

30th Dec 2009, 06:13:00 PM

Hi,

I surfed through your site using IE8, and where the Boxes in concern appear, everything looks fine to me. I thought I might missed out something you want to highlight. Perhaps you could do a screenshot, circle the area in the screenshot where the problem is, and post a link to the screenshot.

And thank you for your kind gesture to return a favour. You can help by

  1. spreading this website's name,
  2. giving donations, or
  3. just words of thanks.

I hope you enjoy using TBP. =)

They all look fantastic!

WoW! You just made my year. Your acts of kindness are awesome.

Do you have any tips on how to get the boxes to play with IE? I'm on Firefox, but went to see them in IE 8, and there are a few problems (no big surprise, but ... ).  The titles don't show up in the title pane, but instead show up in the content pane when you mouseover that area.

 I'm guessing it's my css, but wondered if you have seen this before?

Thanks again for everything. BTW: Do you accept compensation for your gracious help?

Have fun building websites

30th Dec 2009, 02:58:00 PM

All the best to building your clients' websites. =)

I am also a website developer, and can understand how important and cool it is to have prompt replies for my enquiries. Just drop a Post here in the TBP website if you have future Box-related questions.

I'd forgotten about that. It was an earlier, and failed, attempt to reach the result you have provided. Thanks!
