| 16:17.46 | wps | mindjuju, em is a for of measurement |
| 16:17.56 | wps | in, mm, px, pt, em |
| 16:19.41 | mindjuju | yeah, i found out |
| 16:19.48 | mindjuju | confusing, but i think i understand why |
| 16:20.06 | mindjuju | 2 quick questions in case your busy |
| 16:20.44 | mindjuju | 1. with em and pictures sized by em, will that make websites display correctly in various screen sizes? |
| 16:21.59 | mindjuju | i mean, since your not specifying pixel size, but the size is proportionate to the default font size |
| 16:23.11 | mindjuju | question 2. I have a CSS drop down menu elment that is falling behind a DHMTL element that is created later in the page. Do you know a way around this so that the menu comes on top of the DHTML element? I've already given the menu div a z of 10, but the DHTML elment still rises on top |

| 20:05.41 | bigdog_ut | i guess im not good enough |
| 20:06.01 | mindjuju | yeah you are, sent you private message |
| 20:06.08 | bigdog_ut | where? |
| 20:06.33 | mindjuju | i'll try again, hang on |
| 20:06.56 | mindjuju | just private messaged you again |
| 20:07.13 | bigdog_ut | now try |
| 20:07.34 | mindjuju | anything? |
| 20:07.38 | bigdog_ut | no |
| 20:07.45 | bigdog_ut | try again |
| 20:26.45 | mindjuju | did you get that last message? |
| 20:47.16 | wps | I am here now |
| 20:47.23 | wps | (sorry… in and out) |
| 20:47.29 | mindjuju | no worries. |
| 21:11.31 | mindjuju | wps, did you get that info in the private message? |
| 21:11.40 | wps | from you? |
| 21:11.48 | mindjuju | yup |
| 21:11.51 | wps | I didn't receive a PM from you |
| 21:13.07 | mindjuju | i'm streaming video to a web page using the <object> tag. the video is windows media streaming and when that object loads, it resizes |
| 21:13.22 | mindjuju | what is happening is that the menu i have goes behind the resized video display |
| 21:13.48 | mindjuju | though if i stop the web page before the video screen is optimized, the menu is above the video screen |
| 21:14.00 | mindjuju | i've tried setting the z index, but it still just goes behind |
| 21:14.52 | wps | there is no solution |
| 21:15.00 | wps | sorry to not have better news for you, but there isn't |
| 21:15.58 | mindjuju | bummer |
| 21:15.59 | wps | whether you are working with video, flash, or somethings even other HTML within iframs, dynamic menus will behave very inconsistently across browsers and will often load behind these objects |
| 21:16.26 | wps | the reason is that browsers us some app-level UI rendering stuff and some OS-level rendering stuff |
| 21:16.53 | wps | this is one of the biggest downsides to drop-menus and why I usually avoid them |
| 21:17.22 | wps | another reason is because they cover content; ie: you cannot see what is beneath them when they are "on" |
| 21:17.23 | mindjuju | so i either need to move the video or do something other than the drop down |
| 21:17.32 | wps | yes |
