The updated HTML5 - hyperlinks file now includes the CSS3 animation property to simulate the <blink> tag in modern browsers, while providing a Javascript equivalent for IE9 and earlier versions. http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bristowe/test/html5-anchors.html Barry ------------------------------ > On Friday, February 15, 2013 9:00 AM > Charles wrote:- >> >> When I "mouse over" your example block elements then the color and >> text changes as advertised, but then when I move the mouse out of the >> block, the whole page reloads, and therefore jumps.

There is a very smooth transition for the mouseOver state and the mouseOut one. I don't see a problem at all, and I don't even mind the nice slow blink effect. ICBW, but I don't believe the page reloads, as Task Manager shows no internet activity even if I mouse over and out of the key areas rapidly and repeatedly. Later, Charlie C.

I might revisit that and provide a CSS solution for modern browsers and leave the Javascript for Ye Olden ones. In fact the Chrome Webkit browser doesn't recognise "window.history.go(0)" and uses "window.location.reload()", which is causing the problem. Barry
Internet browsers use a variety of rendering engines, e.g. Internet Explorer uses Trident, Chrome and Safari use Webkit, Firefox and SeaMonkey use Gecko, and Opera uses Presto. All that is about to change with Opera announcing that its future versions will use the Webkit engine. This blog by the author of the Opera announcement makes interesting reading - http://www.brucelawson.co.uk/2013/opera-and-webkit-a-personal-perspective/ Barry
With HTML5 soon to be introduced, the <a> tag has acquired a new status. Currently in HTML4, and by default in HTML5 it is an "inline" element, but HTML5 will allow you to use it as a "block level" element. This means that with the addition of " a {display:block;} " in your styles you can treat it exactly the same way as a <div> by nesting images and other elements within it. Here is an example page:- http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~bristowe/test/html5-anchors.html Barry

Hello Heidi, Can't she have two links? One to her webpage and one to Webring? The site maybe has something like an htaccess file that is redirecting it.

Recently I had occasion to go back and have a look at some of the Microsoft proprietary features that were incorporated in Internet Explorer 6, released in August 2001. What sprang to mind was the large number of little used "filter" property features that had been developed, and in particular I wanted to see if there was still a way of integrating some of the newer W3C "linear-gradient" CSS properties into older versions of IE. Well, I got side-tracked when I realized that the MS filter:gradient style provided that the colors declared for colorStart and colorEnd also had provision to apply transparency. That lead to me writing up a page to check it out:- http://countjustonce.com/ie-test/bg-opacity.html The above page renders in all modern browsers and IE back to IE6, and there is included a link to a screen shot taken in Internet Explorer 6. Getting back to the linear-gradient question; I found there was no way of creating a rainbow background in the <body> as is easily done in all modern browsers using the "repeating-linear-gradient" property, which includes IE10. That lead me to thinking that the ubiquitous <table> could be the answer, and as it turned out, it certainly was. So, the outcome follows:- http://countjustonce.com/ie-test/color-stops.html That page also renders in all modern browsers and back to IE6, and here is a link to the IE6 screen shot:- http://countjustonce.com/ie-test/images/color-stops-ie6.jpg A more practical background use of the linear-gradient/filter:gradient style will be found when opening - http://countjustonce.com/ie-test/color-stops-legacy.html ... which describes a method to use to have the linear gradient rendering in all browsers that recognise it, and in particular Internet Explorer from version 10 back to version 6.

A correction to my previous post... body{ background:#fff url('azur2.jpg') repeat-x 0 50px; } There was a 'fixed' in the background shorthand style, and the correct format is as above.

I've arrived belatedly at this subject and find that Pat Geary has given some good guidance on what should be done. Having looked at the original background image for the OGS site, I wonder if the depth / height of the banner as shown on the Rootsweb site is as intended. It should be remembered that the Rootsweb top banner is occupying the first 50px of the body, and therefore the first 50px of any background-image will be under the banner. If my suspicion is correct, then the background needs to be positioned, e.g. body{ background:#fff url('azur2.jpg') repeat-x fixed 0 50px; } Likewise, if you want to display a top image as part of your background (as Pat G. demonstrated) in your Rootsweb pages, then the same 50px offset needs to be used. Barry
Barry, thanks for the additional comments. The instructions Pat gave me accomplished what I was looking for. I have since tweaked the image some, but am pleased with it. Thanks for your help.

I wonder what all of you would think about having a contest to see who can do the best job of trimming irrelevant material from their posts? Honestly, I'm just about ready to give up on this list because of many people's failure to do that. It is a right pain to have to scroll through a humongous amount of stuff I've already read to try and find the small gems I've not yet read. -- Just call me grumpy, Charlie C.
A lovely site again Pat. Love it!

Another would be to use an image like on this page http://www.expression-web-tutorials.com/quilting-blue/ It really depends on what you want to do with the page. pat ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to FREEPAGES-HELP-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
