: Image News panel pictures a little wider in Safari
: lhallberg October 13, 2009, 05:02:06 PM
Joined the club and installed Emma Smooth using Site Shaper and so far everything looks great!

Except... on our SiteShaper install the 5 car images in the S5 Image News panel are a few pixels wider so the 5th image bumps down causing the panel to either not show and leave a blank spot on the right... or the panel some how "knows" and drops down twice as far to show the 2nd row image.

http://www.nietc.net/  please use viewing Safari on Mac OS X.

The part that concerns me is this only looks like that on Safari for Mac OS, on IE 6 / 7 it looks fine.  On the demo it looks the same in both Safari and IE 6.

Is there any difference between the Demo template and the Site Shaper install?
How should I correct this so it looks the same in both browsers?

Thanks,

Hello, there was a change to this a little while back because Safari does not display paddings correctly. The code used on the demo is:


<div style="float:left; margin-right:15px">
  <img style="width:161px; height:101px" src="images/drop_down_1.jpg" alt=""></img>
 

  <div style="margin-top:6px; text-align:center">Lexus IS-F Coupe</div>
</div>
<div style="float:left; margin-right:15px">
  <img style="width:161px; height:101px" src="images/drop_down_2.jpg" alt=""></img>
 

  <div style="margin-top:6px; text-align:center">Ferrari M Class 300</div>
</div>
<div style="float:left; margin-right:15px">
  <img style="width:161px; height:101px" src="images/drop_down_3.jpg" alt=""></img>
 

  <div style="margin-top:6px; text-align:center">Chevy Camaro Convertible</div>
</div>
<div style="float:left; margin-right:15px">
  <img style="width:161px; height:101px" src="images/drop_down_4.jpg" alt=""></img>
 

  <div style="margin-top:6px; text-align:center">Infiniti G37 Coupe</div>
</div>
<div style="float:left">
  <img style="width:161px; height:101px" src="images/drop_down_5.jpg" alt=""></img>
 

  <div style="margin-top:6px; text-align:center">Ford Mustang Shelby GT</div>
</div>
<div style="clear:both"></div>

Hi Mike,

Is this output code or source code?

If source code where is the source and I'll change it.

Thanks,

Hello, this is the code used in the module published to the drop down module position. It is entered in the module's backend.

Ok,

I went in to edit the "Sneek Peek at the Hot News Cars for 2010!" drop_down_1 module as you said.

I click HTML, removed the existing code, typed in your code (or pasted) and clicked "Update".

Interestingly, when I click "HTML" again the editor cleared the style attribute inside the image tag.  Weird?  I thought so.

I tested with creating an article, inserted an image, clicked HTML and put in a simple style attribute in the image tag, such as...  style="padding-left:30px".  Then after clicking "Update" in the HTML dialog the padding was not adjusted and clicking "HTML" again I see the style attribute I applied again had been removed.

This is a brand new install using SiteShaper of the Emma Smooth.  Does the TinyMCE editor clear style formatting in image tags?  I tested on a <p> paragraph tag and the style stuck.

I am able to format the drop_down by applying w x h in the width and height attributes of the images but am wondering about limitations to the TinyMCE html editor.

Any info would be great, thanks.

Hi Mike,

Resolved and resolved.

You're code with the explicit style attributes for width and height definitely fixed the drop_down display in Safari.

I went into the Extensions->Plugin Manager and selected "Editor - TinyMCE 2.0" and changed it's settings for "Code cleanup on save" to "Never".  This fixed the problem with stripping out style attributes in the image tag.

Thanks,
