I’m running into an interesting CSS issue on my portfolio site that I haven’t been unable to solve on my own. I’m using the and tags to transition from an image to a caption/button on desktop hover or mobile click. Unfortunately, it works on all browsers except for Safari iOS.
On my iPhone, I’ll click one of the images and it won't respond; but if I hold down on it, I'm then able to select the caption text which is seemingly there but not visible. I don’t experience this issue on any other mobile browsers that I've tried so far.
See the “Projects” section of this page from Safari iOS to attempt to duplicate the bug.
The specific lines of code regarding this issue can be found here (HTML) and here (CSS).
Note that I used the Bulma CSS framework to create the site, and have since tried several manual changes/additions to the CSS for this section in an attempt to resolve the issue. No luck yet. Any ideas?
The issue is the .overlay div inside of figure. Because it span the entire width and height of the parent, it's blocking clicks (taps) on mobile and preventing figcaption from being revealed.
One way to fix this without JavaScript (the dream) is to add tabindex="0" on the figure element.
<figure class="image is-3by2" tabindex="0">
Adding tabindex will allow the element to respond to :focus, removing the overlay when figure has been touched.
.image.is-3by2:focus .overlay {
display: none;
}

On mobile (or desktop with small window size to replicate mobile, as per the screenshots) the form on my page loads fine with default dates, but when a new date range is selected the form shifts to the left after making the selection (or rather, a gap is inserted to the right) but I can't find anything using F12 developer tools that is causing it. It is not possible to scroll to the left.
On page load:
After selecting dates:
The form itself is displayed by embedding a third party JavaScript link on the page - is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening? I can't figure it out!
Note: The page uses a YouTube video background which is blocked by the firewall where I am working from at the moment (hence the grey background), but is not causing any JavaScript errors. The problem is the same on all mobiles and on networks where the background is able to load.

UPDATE: As per the answer from Wouter, removing the overflow: hidden from <section class="gg-section hero video-home" id="dots-section1"> fixes the issue, but unfortunately that causes other layout problems so cannot be applied.
The problem is likely to be caused by the video being 300% width. Try to set a overflow: hidden; to the following element:
<div class="video-background">
May not help but..
I had a similar issue with page jumping and forms before.
It was caused by an <input class="hiddencheckbox" type="checkbox" />.
Every time I used js select/deselect the checkbox, the browser would try and jump to the checkbox position, which I had hidden by moving its position outside the viewport.
.hiddencheckbox {
position:fixed;
right: -1000px;
// BAD WITH JS
}
I removed the positioning and changed it to:
.hiddencheckbox {
display:none;
}
I'm being forced to use this browser called Fresco by ANT. In it's specs it says it can handle CSS1. So I'm trying to create a link that has an image, and when hovered over, have the image change.
I've tried:
<td width="30% valign="top" align="left">
<div id="changeImage"></div>
</td>
My CSS is as follows:
#changeImage{
background: url(somefilepath1);
width: 218px;
height: 52px;
}
#changeImage:hover{
background: url(somefilepath2);
}
It works fine in Chrome, Firefox, etc... But in this awkward browser called Fresco, it doesn't show the image at all. I'm not even sure if this is considered CSS1 approved? I've googled and found CSS1 stylings, but nothing to exactly define what I'm trying to do. Any web guru have any tips on this for me?
Sounds like it has trouble reading the psuedo :hover. Technically this was implemented in the early days to be used with only an anchor. I believe Internet Exploder 6 has :hover support only for anchor elements still. This soon has been changed to support all elements on a page.
I would say, try using a sprite sheet where the backgrounds are loaded already and changing the background position of this element. Which would be best practice to do anyways because, you will get instant action, instead of triggering a server request and having the user wait for the new content to arrive.
Here is more detail on the technique and CSS1 does support the background position element

The issue only crops up in IE10. After the user has scrolled a little ways, the navigation becomes pinned (a class of fixed gets added to the body which effects the hgroup.primary(I know, I know hgroup is not a 'thing' anymore. Don't judge me.)). If you go back to the top of the page, it un-pins, goes back to normal.
In IE10, when you go back up to the top of the page, the nav elements disappear until the mouse moves up over ANY part of the yellow bar. It's driving me nuts.
I've attempted things like having JS append/alter content in various elements on scrolltop/un-pinning the navigation.
I've got a brief youtube video showing the issue: http://youtu.be/-itTC_j-9YE
Any thoughts, or ideas? That'd be great. Thanks!
While I have no solid answer for the reason behind this redraw issue, I found that an instantaneous jQuery hide/show redrew the element completely without any visible side effects.
Using a non-jQuery JS hack to add a class to the HTML element in IE10 (see Willem de Wit's answer to this quandry), I made sure this code only fired on IE10.
if($('html').hasClass('ie10')) {
$('.primary').hide(0, function(){$(this).show()});
}
I am not sure if this is an issue with the Blogger template that I'm hacking up, or if I'm just forgetting a simple CSS property.
I'm working on a template for a friend, and am attempting to show the logo on the top right above the menubar div, and it works just fine in Firefox and Chrome, however it renders behind the div in IE9.
Here is the link to the demo:
Demo blog
Essentially, what I've done is created an absolutely positioned div, with an inside image:
<div id="logo2">
<a href="">
<img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lpZjzviYzAo/T7mNUvXY6QI/AAAAAAAAAcM/XwQS-bO0Hy4/s1600/lovek-hdr.png">
</a>
</div>
and the associated CSS:
#logo2 {
position:absolute;
top: -25px;
right: -50px;
z-index: 999;
}
I'd thought that the combination of an absolute position, plus the high Z-index would overcome any issues with IE's handling of the z-index, however I was wrong.
I've also tried adding in a position (relative) and z-index (1) for the menubar div, to no avail.
Per #Dubious' suggestion, I added the following without success (the image is still clipped):
.tabs-outer, .tabs-inner {
<!-- [if ie 9]>
z-index: -1;
<![endif]>
position: relative;
}
Old Answer "Try adding a z-index of -1 instead of 1 to your menubar div"
Edit:
Okay, after doing some fiddling around in IE9 Developer Tools I noticed that your source code was telling IE to render the page in Document Mode: IE7 Standards. As you can see, after opening dev tools (and making sure the dev tools frame is active) you can press alt + 9 to render the css as it should be rendered in IE9. After this occurs, the content displays just as it should in any current browser.
So why is the page loading with IE7 Document Standards? Well you need to use correct standards-compliant !DOCTYPE directives for each of your pages. To do this just read up on this page and make sure that your html files follow the very first example.
Conditional Comments
I should have given you a better example of IE conditional comments, so I will go a little more in depth here. An IE conditional comment can ONLY be defined in html as it uses <!--> which is html specific code. Therefore, in order to add ie7/ie9/ie specific css you would need to <link> a new stylesheet inside the comment field that would have ie specific code. Further reading here. Also note, that since this issue you are experiencing is because the page is rendering IE7 quirks mode css, you might need to use an ie7 comment as opposed to ie9.
I really hope this solves your problem, good luck!
For ages now my site has had a catalogue where the small image is directly within a link within a div. The link must only be around the image - but I do not want to use the + selector since this is not supported by some versions of IE (IE6 onwards I think it needs to support). The div has class "ImageHoverSpan" (it used to be a Span on an older layout, I just havent bothered renaming the class). There is another div, with class "ImageOuterPanel", on the same level as the link (i.e. a direct child of the ImageHoverSpan).
I have the following classes defined:
.ImageHoverSpan .ImageOuterPanel {
display: none; }
.customer .ImageHoverSpan:hover .ImageOuterPanel {
display: block; }
This certainly used to work fine as far as I can remember - on all browsers. I am about to launch the new version of the website into testing, but I just noticed today that, in Opera 10.60, the image panel (ImageOuterPanel) is displaying straight away on hover over the ImageHoverSpan, but it takes anything between 1 second and.. well.. never to disappear when the mouse leaves the div.
I know using :hover on anything other than links can slow performance in IE - but this is Opera. In Firefox (3.6) this works absolutely fine - it appears and disappears as it should.
Has anyone got any ideas about what could be causing this? Anyone had this problem before?
Thank you.
Regards,
Richard
Well I have found an answer. I asked the question on the Opera forums, and a user posted back that I could have an Opera stylesheet which keeps the elements visible but sets opacity to 0 or 100 instead. This works - the elements appear and disappear instantly.
