Re: iframe replacement - browser testing appreciated

August 7th 2005 PST

Thanks for the testing, Bruce! I've updated the page accordingly. And while I haven't seen any stats lately (NN7, anyone?), I think that takes care of the majors. So notwithstanding the fringe browsers, here are your frame-like archived-message options (when the time comes), Justin: - an iFrame, set at a fixed width; - or a variable-width "fakeFrame"...that won't let Mac users fondle their new Mighty Mice as much as they want to. ...Continue Reading

Re: iframe replacement - browser testing appreciated

Brilliant! Good work! Firefox/Mac -- width & overall function good, but no keyboard scrolling or scrollwheel scrolling. Safari/Mac -- ditto IE 5.2.3/Mac -- ditto. When the page is first loaded, the fake iframe has a horizontal scrollbar which disappears when the window is resized. -- curmudgeon ...Continue Reading

iframe replacement - browser testing appreciated

> If the iFrame automatically  > adjusted itself to the width of the page/div it's in...   Well, percentage widths *are* part of its spec! ...but having now done some browser testing on my own, I'm choking on my choice of the word "elegant." Yuck!   So I've thrown together a CSS-based replacement for your/our consideration. It's certainly cleaner and more consistent with Dada Mail's style, ...and if it works well enough cross-browser, switching from "inline/framed" to &qu ...Continue Reading

Good question - probably PDA's and the ilk? I personally don't like the iFrame idea. If the iFrame automatically adjusted itself to the width of the page/div ...Continue Reading

Let's try that again but in English: "And at minimum -- which means you're deleting everything else before & after the -- you'd probably also want to DELETE any inline scripting the message might have, too, for security reasons." ...Continue Reading

The rub on this is, well, it's stuck in an iFrame and > there's an extra scroll bar and it doesn't really work well with > anything else. Scrollbar, schmollbar -- I think the iframe looks fine, once you remove its extra CSS-styled border! And as far as its /function/ goes, it seems like a perfectly appropriate solution ...Continue Reading

Yes, I have. This isn't about working on having Dada embed inline images, this is about it displaying them. I'm probably not going to add back support for Dada Mail to display inline images until it can ...Continue Reading
