Most of the fight involved using text shadow for the "Attentive 2 Design" text. I thought I had it working, but the CSS code is very dependent on certain CSS properties. If you set a "background-color" then the shadowing does not work in IE.
The second largest battle was on the width and height of the browser window. I needed this in order to size the content pane on the right hand side of the A2D web site to fill the browser window. I found a web site with working Javascript code to determine the browser size at:
http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/javascript/browserwindow
var myWidth = 0, myHeight = 0;
if( typeof( window.innerWidth ) == 'number' ) {
//Non-IE
myWidth = window.innerWidth;
myHeight = window.innerHeight;
} else if( document.documentElement && ( document.documentElement.clientWidth || document.documentElement.clientHeight ) ) {
//IE 6+ in 'standards compliant mode'
myWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth;
myHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
} else if( document.body && ( document.body.clientWidth || document.body.clientHeight ) ) {
//IE 4 compatible
myWidth = document.body.clientWidth;
myHeight = document.body.clientHeight;
}
return {width: myWidth, height: myHeight};
When I had all of this working, I noticed that the active buttons, which I configure to look like horizontal tabs did not look right on Safari as the active buttons were below the content pane. This started happening when I set the "overflow: auto" CSS style on the content pane. The only way I could figure out to fix this problem was to try the following:
Position.relativize(button);
button.style.zIndex = 100;
Then I found out that this code caused Javascript errors in IE, so I had to surround the block with a Safari check:
if (navigator.appVersion.match(/Konqueror|Safari|KHTML/))
