Judy asked, "Problem -- I want an addition to the CSS file OR an inline style JUST for the Site Map. I want to make an unordered list, but also be able to 'indent' for a 3rd tier. So with boxes or circles on 2nd and 3rd tiers but not top headings" Barry's solution is excellent. So long as the styling applies only to the site map page, put it in the doc's head section, below the call to the CSS file. But, to make additional comments: If the styling for this page conflicts with overall site styling, it should be placed after the call of the general style sheet (to avoid future confusion about which governs). She's apparently talking about "nested" lists -- that is, a list inside a list inside a list. I'd suggest, first, making a HTML nested list to play with. The code would be like: <.ul> <!-- remove leading dots --> <li><.h2>Level 1, item 1</h2> <.ul><.li><.h3>Level 2, item a</h3> <.ul><.li>Level 3, item i. </li> <.li>Level 3, item ii</li></ul> </li></ul></li> </ul> Notice that the successive (nested) levels are enclosed within a list item _before_ that item is closed. Close the lower-level list (</ul>) to return to the higher level. Nested lists default to successively indented: * Level 1 is indented, + Level 2 is indented from level 1 (it's contained within level 1) and - Level 3 is indented from level 2 (it's contained within level 2). In talking about margins, we need to consider the "CSS box" which defines the space given to HTML elements. It includes 1. On the inside, the width and height for the element; 2. Just outside of that, any border around the element (default is zero or none but can be changed); 3. Then, padding and border around the element (default is zero or none but can be changed); 3. On the very outside, the margin. Enclosing a heading tag within a list item doesn't change the width of the overall CSS box; the heading will take the margin, padding & border of the item. -rt_/)
Judy, You really need some basic nested list mark-up to help you understand the associated CSS. A small case of "don't leap off the cliff before you've learnt to fly!" <!--code> <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>CSS - Nesting Lists</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href=""> <style> body { background:#fff; font-family:tahoma,arial,sans-serif; font-size:10px; } .sitemap { width:400px; font-size:1.6em; } .sitemap ul { list-style: none; margin: 0 20px; padding: 0px; } .sitemap ul li { list-style: disc; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; } .sitemap ul ul li { list-style: circle; margin: 0px 0px 10px 20px; } .sitemap ul ul ul li { list-style: square; margin: 0px 0px 10px 40px; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="sitemap"> <ul> <li>Sitemap</li> <li>Articles <ul> <li>Lets Undestand Nesting of Lists</li> <li>The Dropdown Menu</li> <ul> <li>Part I</li> <li>Part II</li> </ul> </li> <li>The Problem with 'font-size' in Lists</li> </ul> </li> <li>Summary</li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> </code --> Copy and Paste all between the 'code' tags into your text editor and save as a HTML file. The short-form CSS notations start at the Top and go clockwise to finish with Left, e.g. margin-top:1px; margin-right:2px; margin-bottom:3px; margin-left:4px; becomes margin:1px 2px 3px 4px; Barry On Mon, 26 Aug 2013 09:17:14 +1200, JFlorian <cageycat@gmail.com> wrote in part: > Revisiting making Site Maps...

Revisiting making Site Maps... I have questions about UL and a secondary CSS external file. My CSS (by Pat G) is here. http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~florian/misc-web.css Question--- Under /*================== styles content list ================*/ What do each of these px's refer to? margin: 0px 0px 8px 8px; Problem -- I want an addition to the CSS file OR an inline style JUST for the Site Map. I want to make an unordered list, but also be able to 'indent' for a 3rd tier. So with boxes or circles on 2nd and 3rd tiers but not top headings: My Families (H2) ----- Anthony (H3) ----- Lane -----------John Lane Sr. (indented more as H3 or H4??. If I can't do 3rd tier like this, I'll do 2 tiers like on Pat G's Site Map --- see her URL below) ---------- Daniel Lane (space) Washington County Postcards (H2) ----Businesses (H3) ---------Roller Rink (H3 or H4) -------- YMCA ---People ---Roads & Autos (space) Next Heading etc. ---- The existing Ext. CSS uses a swirlimage and H1 is 1.5 and H2 is 1.3 em . Example that I like and want to keep: http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~florian/ But on my Site Map (PC version), the swirl looks clumsy and cluttered on every line, line after line. Here are my 'wants' for the Site Map... --- Load the basic page/nav from the existing CSS. ------same colors for UL Links as rest of my site Then... have these different from what's already in the External CSS. -- H1, H2, H3 -- align LEFT on all List Items --font size like the sizes Pat used on hers, like (h2) for "Home" (see http://www.genealogy-web-creations.com/site-map.htm) and smaller, like hers, for indented items (h3). Is what Pat used on hers the same as in my existing CSS? -- no visible anything around links, no underline --NO UL image ----Use Square or Circle (disc?) instead of image -- use 2 or 3 'tiers' in UL -- with 2nd and 3rd tiers "indented" from left margin Is something like below on the right track? AND just what would I write in the HTML? When I use W3's "try it editor", this doesn't indent anything. I'm unsure how to call it correctly in the html. /*================== styles sitemap unordered list ================*/ <....div> { width 200% { #smap { .map ul { list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } .map li { list-style: circle; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; padding: 20px; } -webkit-transition: font-size 0.3s ease, background-color 0.3s ease; -moz-transition: font-size 0.3s ease, background-color 0.3s ease; -o-transition: font-size 0.3s ease, background-color 0.3s ease; -ms-transition: font-size 0.3s ease, background-color 0.3s ease; transition: font-size 0.3s ease, background-color 0.3s ease; { Again, I'm unsure what to write in HTML that matches the # and dot pieces from the css, how to 'call' it into action. Note: Unsure if I need those transition pieces-- I saw them on a page for ways to write UL into CSS. Judy
When I just want to block a folder's contents (example: image folders) and make a page "Return to Main Index" (e.g. "404"), Frontpage2000 lists all those pages and the images they block as "unlinked files" not linked to the web's main index page. What I'm wondering is if anyone uses a method to link those 404 pages somehow so they stop being reported as "unlinked" BUT without causing confusion for visitors-- in other words, is there any way to make links onto index.html but at the same time HIDE the links from visitors' viewing? Judy
Valerie, I'm not sure whether you are referring to my original posting on the subject:- http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bristowe/test/magnifier.html ... which used the javascript onmouseover and onmouseout events, or the CSS only pages, of which version #1 works in browsers of IE7 vintage and later:- http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bristowe/test/magnifier-1.html ... or version #2:- http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bristowe/test/magnifier-2.html ... which works in all browsers from IE6, but needs to accommodate the image within an <a> tag. As Greg has pointed out, id="bigImage" (note the cameLized name!) style is in embedded styles in the head of the page.

Judy, Without seeing the script, the answer is I don't know. Scripts are usually designed to run following the occurrence of an event, and if it is the onload event, then placing the script just prior to the </body> tag allows all the other page mark-up to get loaded and the page rendering before the script needs to run. However, the script may well be designed to be located elsewhere and the actual position of its output placed at a particular spot on the page with a document.write(myScript();) command. I suggest you send me the script (change the .js extension to .txt) and tell me where on the template page you want the output to appear.

Judy, I'm curious about where you actually have the nabbar.gif image. Looking at your religious site, the only reference I can find to it is at /_includes/nabbar.gif.

Jim, Thanks for your feedback. I agree with your sentiments, but did point out initially that its not meant to be used for the "bigger" pic. The big image I used as an example was 83kB and the smaller one (if used) would have been 50kB, so on a moderately fast connection its not a problem, and saves 33kB if the pic gets hovered over. For the purists who prefer the CSS method, the same results can be obtained for all browsers of IE7 vintage or later using the mark-up and CSS at:- http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~bristowe/test/magnifier-1.html Or to cater for IE6 and later browsers, the image is placed in an <a> tag and the CSS is also modified again. http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~bristowe/test/magnifier-2.html If being used on Freepages, make sure that the <a> tag CSS is "contained", e.g. #content a {display:inline-block;width:199px;height:218px; padding:5px 10px 5px 0;float:left} #content a:hover {width:360px;height:395px} and if you don't have a container div, then use the one provided by Rootsweb, i.e. #userContentFP a {etc..} ... else the bottom banner links will get "blown apart". You can't use pseudo classes such as :hover as inline styles, which also means that both the a {width and height} along with the a:hover {width and height} must be in a stylesheet.
