osunix Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 OK, maybe no prize, but you will have my undying gratitude. My site, osunix.com, has some issues right now. The problem is, for some reason, the page renders inside a frameset. I haven't added a frame of any kind, but it's showing up. I've poured over my CSS, the site template, everything and can't for the life of me figure out where it's coming from. Could this be related (somehow) to my DNS records changing? I pointed my domain at TCH's nameservers about 48 hours ago. The reasons I think this might be related are: 1) when calling, for example, an image in my code, I have to do it as http://ip.address.here/~username/images instead of http://domain.com/images 2)If you look at the site using IP info, it renders as designed. 3) I'm running out of other excuses.

RJSkon Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 osunix Try removing (position:absolute;) in your Stylesheet and see if that make a different to your frameset. #mainpage { position:absolute; left:16%; top: 27%; right:2%; border:2px solid #000; text-align:center; background-color:#fff; padding-bottom:5%; } Richard Quote
osunix Posted January 2, 2004 Author Posted January 2, 2004 Richard, Nope. Still in the frameset. However, removing the positioning did make things look interesting...lol. Quote
RJSkon Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 osunix I have just started to try learning CSS and I thought that your Stylesheet was changeling, I have been using a program called, TopStyle Lite to create some small Stylesheets and styles. I opened your Stylesheet in the program and played around with it and when I change the position in #mainpage to either static or inherit, the problem seems to go away in the preview section of the program, I have the Style Inspector set to "CSS Level 2".

osunix Posted January 2, 2004 Author Posted January 2, 2004 Richard, Thanks for the help. I tried the positioning you mentioned but it had no effect. I really don't think it's CSS related since I used this same stylesheet n my last site with no problems. I'm starting to think I have another idea. From the looks of things my old registrar is having a hard time letting go of my domain; the site is being forwarded from there even though the DNS records point to TCH. Quote
osunix Posted January 2, 2004 Author Posted January 2, 2004 Just a follow-up. The domain was being forwarded. This has since been rectified. DNS propagation is complete, except for my ISP. So most everyone should see the site sans-frames now. I'm still stuck viewing it by IP until my ISP's DNS updates. Thanks again for the help! Quote
