Hi,

I have items in a dropdown. The longest piece of text in the dropdown is the length of the dropdown, the is no left space and from the left of the dropdown to left of the dropdown's arrow. How do I get some space in between this?

Yes I have, besides there is no other way to style an HTML by not using css!

Marc Firth16-Mar-09 5:55

16-Mar-09 5:55

how about using an regular html non-breaking space (" ")?
ie.
<option>    item    </option>

If I understand your question correctly... If that wasn't it could you re-phrase it.

Hey,

I guess I can do it like that, but I would prefer to do it with css. I am using the Yahoo User Interface API and they have reset all the html controls, so I am trying to get the dropdown to have some spacing on either side of the text.

Thanks.

Vertical Alignment in divs

16-Mar-09 6:02

only ones i can think of are your basic
margin
padding &
text-indent

Or you could code one yourself using custom javascript, hidden text fields and the YUI API.

If " " works I'd just use that. it's easier. and if it does the trick....

Hi,

I am struggling to have some HTML controls vertical centered in a div tag. I'm not sure what to do?

I have a textbox with a button next to it. The button has some padding so it makes it "higher" than the textbox, so instead of the textbox being centered verticlly it is now at the bottom. How do I get it centered to the button? It works fine in Firefox.

Hi Brendan, give this a try

style="vertical-align:middle;"

Javascript Permission Denied when using get and post

15-Mar-09 23:34

Or alternatively make you div s set width and change its margin to auto. i.e.:
<code><div style="width:400px; margin:auto">
This text is centred
</div></code>

Or try absolute positioning?

You get a permission denied error because you can't do cross-server JavaScript

I found this very helpful when coding a project that also needed compression capabilities. It works great, just add a reference the dll file and follow there examples and this should do what you need it to do.

http://www.codeplex.com/DotNetZip[^]

Here is a quick example:

Public Sub createZip()

Dim strMsg As String = "Please run the tests before using this feature."
Dim file = "results.zip"

Try 'Create Zip File
Using zip As ZipFile = New ZipFile("results-" & ID & ".zip")

zip.AddDirectory(ZipPath, "results")
zip.Save()

End Using

Catch ex1 As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex1.ToString, "Program Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation)

End Try

End Sub

hope this helps

the interpreter will tell which line the error is found and what is not defined. This means you need to define the object first

var foo;
var bar;
