Hey everyone... Found the issue. It was due to having all of the main content blocks (header, content and footer) set to a z-index of 1. By only setting the header with the z-index, that solved the problem. - George

Hey guys, Been working on a site for a client where they want a fly-out menu within their main navigation. So, we went with a slightly modified version of the Suckerfish menu system. This worked out wonderfully until we began testing in IE 7. For an unknown reason, we're running into the...

One JavaScript library that I prefer to use is JQuery. Has all of the features of Prototype, but can be packed to be only 20K in size. Very nice. - George

And about specificity, I've always found this article, CSS Spcificity Wars both funny and extremely good in describing how specificity works. - George

If you have key/value pairs that need to be sent with the form, why not include those items as hidden inputs within the form itself? - George

Let's not forget that by using classes to change the look of the text, screen readers won't know to process the text any differently for visually impaired users. As a real world example, say you're using bold and italics to make text stand out and be emphasized by users, well, unless you use...

Switch all of your form methods from GET to POST to fix this. - George

But how can you tell where a person is actually reading? Last time I checked, computers aren't jacked into our brains yet. You'll probably want to rethink the design of the chapters before tackling this any further. You can accomplish what your client wants by doing some layering of the...

The first thing you'll want to do is validate your HTML. Most browsers will have issues if you haven't specified the DOCTYPE of your page. - George

Also, you don't need to prepare the statement for every iteration through your loop. Do the prepare outside the loop (with the placeholders) and just run the execute statement within. my $cookie = $q->cookie('cart_id'); my @ListOfSongs = param("songs"); my $sizeOfArray = 0; my...

Have you tried adding any error catching to your statements? I also see that once you've received the image, you don't close the file handle, nor are you setting the file to read in BINMODE. #upload picture if ($image ne ""){ $image =~ m/^.*(\\|\/)(.*)/; $temp = $2; $temp =~...

I'd suggest searching through CPAN for the modules you'd need to have to do these conversions. PDF Modules Document parsing modules might be a bit more difficult to find, but if you know what document structures are going to be sent in (Word, Word Perfect, Open Office, etc.) you could narrow...

I'd say this question better belongs in the Flash forum (forum250).

Thanks, I'll look into the LoadVars option as it seems to be the more appropriate since we don't own the codebase for the analytics software, but it does return a GIF image. Thanks! - George

I have a small Flash application that is displaying a varying number of ads in a carousel-type fashion which our users can click on any ad to go to a given product page. Our Analytics department has requested that we track information on what the user is doing while on the page with the...
