Combining both is a BAD thing. As I said CSS expressions are really bad. So use it only when it absolutely necessary. By doing something like,

you can isolate IE and put in the hack.

Hi Suneth,

How to put the code in one meaning that will work in both IE and Firefox in just one code.

Comment on “Fun” with Prototype and IE7 and Tables by Suneth Mendis

You are spot on Michael. I ran into the same problem some time ago. The most annoying thing about Prototype or Scriptaculous Builder is that it does not show any error messages in the console.
So you are right. You got to use “className” (Case sensitive too) and not class if you are using the Scriptaculous Builder. Its always pays off to read the documentation!!! (http://github.com/madrobby/scriptaculous/wikis/builder)
Prototype also comes with a dynamic DOM builder function.

var container = new Element(’div’, { ‘class’: class_name });
Note how Prototype use “class” and not className here.

I ran into a related issue, that the attribute ‘class’ which is visible in Firefox as something.class = ‘foo’, in IE7, that statement caused the entire javascript file it was in to fail to LOAD without a meaningful error message.

The fix was to call it .className. Which is fine. Except that I’m not even sure how I was supposed to find that out.

A poop - I’m Sorry, I don’t know how to flag code so that it isn’t rendered…

Notes:

1. Using Joomla installation http://axeandcrom.com
2. Using ComicCMS installation http://axeandcrom.com/comic

Need:

1. Comic to be dynamically iFramed into Joomla install

Attempt One:
I tried putting the code into a Joomla module and published it from there.

1. with CSS in a seperate doc
2. with CSS inline

Neither worked, so I thought it might be a Joomla thing.

Attempt Two:
Put code into the index.php of the live template.

1 & 2 same as above.

Code Attempt 01:

Code Attempt 02:
http://axeandcrom.com/comic/

Code Attempt 03:
http://axeandcrom.com/comic/index.php

CSS Placements:
I tried external style sheet, header, and inline.

It would be awesome if you could assist.
Thx,

No Javascript required. It is purely CSS driven. Would you mind posting a simple use case of your example so I can have a look? (Just sample HTML will do)

Is that it - or do I need to install any Javascript? (At the moment it isn’t working for me.)
