    How do you widgetise templated content and still use external CSS files?

    importing the CSS in the body is generally not an approved method and it makes debugging and the source code a long and messy funky thing to look at. Is there a reason why you wouldn't just use a stylesheet in the head? Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com | Marketing and Creative Services

    How do you widgetise templated content and still use external CSS files?

    You don't need to use style in your include files. Simply have the relevant HTML in your files IE <a href="link.htm" class="style">my link</a> then in a stylesheet just have the styling in 'path/my.css' .style {color: black;} Then the page that you have all this on your display page...

    Help with DIVs and CSS to render ROWS/COLS like grid

    Sounds like you need to use a TABLE. For tabular data the table is still the expected and standards compliant way to laying out information. Doing this with DIVS, SPANS etc. will be a nightmare and you will either have to fall back to fixed widths and heights OR JS to get a look of uniformity...

    Update multiple files in a site

    Yes, You can go to edit and enter the code you want to find and replace. then just select all the files in the directory and from the dropdown choose, "selected files". You should have just made a template file and gone from there. Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com | Marketing and Creative...

    Kindle browser

    strongman, you are right. I assumed that we were talking about a tablet not a reader. Since that is the case, I wouldn't concern myself with websites looking good or not on a reader. It's not their intended purpose. Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com | Marketing and Creative Services

    Links inconsistant, some work others dont, why?

    your line break, and IMG tags are incorrect <br /> <img ... /> it is also a self closing tag and does NOT have an opening tag. All tags must be closed. Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com | Marketing and Creative Services

    Kindle browser

    AFAIK the Kindle Browser is standards compliant. You need to be specific as to what you define as NOT OK. Your question too vague to answer as MODAL popups look and work fine on tablet or larger displays but on smaller and mobile phones they can be a real PITA. Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com...

    CSS - Elastic div, text and picture alignment

    No, that's why my suggestion was for JQUERY, and I stated that. Fixed dimensions is just the easiest to manage IMO. That was a statement in generality. I feel that you feel offended by something I might have said earlier. If that's the case none was suggested. Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com...

    CSS - Elastic div, text and picture alignment

    http://www.hardcode.nl/archives_139/article_515-vertical-align-plugin.htm JQUERY for center vertical align. Fixed height and padding is the simplest solution to manage, and it's usually the one I employ. @ChrisHirst - my response was to the OP and JQUERY looked like the best (and only)...

    CSS - Elastic div, text and picture alignment

    Chris I will respectfully disagree. When it comes to vertical alignment and centering using CSS there are many ways and methods to achieve it, all with caveats. There are methods using line heights, padding, negative margins, computational equations with fixed height containers, setting your...

    CSS - Elastic div, text and picture alignment

    Vertical centering is an advanced trick and usually involves some type of JQUERY, unless you have a fixed dimension container with fixed text then it just comes down to manipulating the padding. What you are trying to do it pretty simple <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <style> div {width:100%...

    Render XML file in DIV

    looks like a job for JQUERY to do what you want. Out of curiosity why dont you just wrap the script file in the DIV? Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com | Marketing and Creative Services

    Render XML file in DIV

    im a bit confused as to what you are trying to accomplish? Are you talking about styling the data dump? A bit more context would help, are you only talking about displaying the XML in the browser or is it within a section of an already existing page? Darryn Cooke www.darryncooke.com |...

    Embedding Video for cross browser support

    So you are relying on the users video player to kick in and play the movie in the browser? Why would you (or anyone) for that matter rely on; 1. Your server to host up the video file 2. Rely on your visitor's system player to run the file I always recommend Vimeo or Youtube (or an already...
