Hello,

On http://www.uisge-beatha.eu I try to get a square (f.i.) as li, however if I do so, than all albums and thumbs show that square too. been trying for a while, and probably something I overlook. Any help is much appreciated!

I have two css, the main (partly):

Code: Select all

#main {
float: left;
}

#main ul li a:hover,p a:hover {
text-decoration:none;
color:#61363c;
background:#b39887;
}

#main p img {

Can you please only post the RELEVANT code for your problem? I'm not going to dig through all of it to see if I can find a little problem anywhere.

Having that said, you probably just have to give the list you want to edit a classname you don't use anywhere else, so you can add CSS to it.

Ok McDavind, fair enough. Just wanted to be complete

Overall css for http://www.uisge-beatha.eu

Code: Select all

text-decoration:none;
color:#61363c;
background:#b39887;
}


div#main ul,div#main ol,div#main dl,#footer ul,#footer ol {
line-height:1em;
margin:0 0 1.5em;
}

div#main ul,#footer ul {
list-style:circle;
}

div#main ul a:hover {
color:#01208b;
}

div#main ul li,div#main ol li,#footer ul li,#footer ol li {
margin-left:20px;
padding:2px 2px 2px 5px;
   list-style-type: square;
}

#main ul li a {
padding-right:12px;
line-height:15px;
   list-style-type: square;
}

a.external, p a, a.external, #main ul li a {
background:url(/uploads/images/cms/external.gif) no-repeat 100% -100px;
}

#main ul li.thumb a {
background-image:none;
}

div#main dl dt {
font-weight:700;
margin:0 0 0 1em;
}

div#main dl dd {
margin:0 0 1em 1em;
}

div#main dl {
margin-bottom:2em;
padding-bottom:1em;
border-bottom:1px solid silver;
}

The relevant Album CSS

Code: Select all

/* Picture List UL */
.picturelist {
   margin-left: 0;
   padding-left: 0;
}
.album_content, div#main ul li, #main ol li {
   list-style-type: none;
}
/* Album and Picture Lists */
.picturelist .thumb {
   width: auto;
/* Thumbnail spacing */
   text-decoration: none;
   line-height: normal;
   list-style-type: none;
   text-align: center;
   float: left;
   margin: 0 0.5em 0.5px 0;
}
/* Set link formatting*/

.picturelist .thumb a:hover {
   background-color: #eee;
/*Background of thumb on hover - sort of light blue/green */
}
/* Set link formatting radius/shadows */
.picturelist .thumb a {
   text-decoration: none;
   color: inherit;
   cursor: pointer;
   margin: 6px;
   display: inline-block;
   background: white;
   padding: 6px;
   line-height: 0;
   -webkit-border-radius: 4px 4px;
   -moz-border-radius: 4px 4px;
   border-radius: 4px 4px;
   -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #AAA;
   -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #AAA;
   box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #AAA;
   -webkit-transition: -webkit-box-shadow 0.1s ease-out;
   -moz-transition: -webkit-box-shadow 0.1s ease-out;
   -o-transition: -webkit-box-shadow 0.1s ease-out;
   transition: -webkit-box-shadow 0.1s ease-out;
}

Hope this helps to help me sort it out.

The CSS is quite a mess, especially the * selector makes it very complicated. I still don't get why people keep using those "resets" that only make things harder (and much slower). But I think you just downloaded this template?

the problem is specificity. The list-style is overwritten many times, by many CSS rules. The last is:

Code: Select all

.album_content, div#main ul li, #main ol li {
    list-style-type: none;
}

this one seems to overrule all the other list-style rules. I think you will get the effect you want by removing the div#main ul li and #main ol li selectors from this rule.

I'm working on cleaning up the stylesheet, and already reduced it. The stylesheet, it's a combination of two stylesheet, one from Matthew Taylor (Three column fluid) and one of the cmsms blue theme. The album css is part of the latest Album version + the float template.

I followed your suggestion, however that did not work out. The list-item remains. Quite strange. Maybe the template from Album helps:

Code: Select all

{assign var='set_photoalbum' value='1'}
{* floatbox stuff *}
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="modules/Album/templates/db/floatbox/floatbox.css" />
<__script__ type="text/javascript" src="modules/Album/templates/db/floatbox/floatbox.js"></__script>
{* same as Thickbox *}
{* Album List *}
{if !$album}
<ul class="picturelist">
{foreach from=$albums item=album}
 <li class="thumb">
  <p class="albumname">{$album->name|strip_tags}</p>
   <a href="{$album->link}"><img src="{$album->thumbnail}" alt="{$album->name}" title="{$album->name}"{$album->autothumbnailsize} /></a>
    <p><span class="albumpicturecount">({$album->picturecount} images)</span></p>
     <p><span class="albumcomment">{$album->comment|truncate:75|strip_tags}&nbsp;</span></p>
 </li>
{/foreach}
</ul>

{else}
{* Photo List *}
{if $pagecount>1}
<p class="albumnav">
<a href="{$link.page.first}" title="first page"><<&nbsp;</a>
{if $link.page.previous}<a href="{$link.page.previous}" title="previous page"><&nbsp;</a>{/if}
 page {$pagenumber}/{$pagecount}
 {if $link.page.next}<a href="{$link.page.next}" title="next page">&nbsp;></a>{/if}
<a href="{$link.page.last}" title="last page">&nbsp;>></a>
</p>
{/if}

<p><strong>{$album->name}</strong><br />
{$album->comment|strip_tags}<br />
<span class="instructiontext">Klik op een kleine foto om een grotere foto te zien. Door buiten de grote foto te klikken of druk op 'Esc' (escape) om deze te sluiten.<br/>{if $returnlink}<a href="{$returnlink}">Keer terug naar het albumoverzicht.</a>{/if}</span></p>

<ul class="picturelist">
{foreach from=$pictures item=picturesrow}
{foreach from=$picturesrow item=onepicture}
 <li class="thumb">

    <a href="{$onepicture->picture}" rel="{$album->name|escape:'html'}" class="floatbox" rev="numIndexLinks:10  showIndexThumbs:true indexLinksPanel:control group:images" title="{$onepicture->name|escape:'html'} - {$onepicture->comment|escape:'html'}"> <img src="{$onepicture->thumbnail}" alt="{$onepicture->name|escape:'html'} - {$onepicture->comment|escape:'html'}" title="{$onepicture->name|escape:'html'} - {$onepicture->comment|escape:'html'}"{$onepicture->autothumbnailsize} /></a>

  </a> *}

Thank for you reply. Currently in the album css I have:

Code: Select all

/* Album and Picture Lists */
.picturelist .thumb {width: auto;/* Thumbnail spacing */text-decoration: none;line-height: normal;list-style-type: none;text-align: center;float: left;margin: 0 0.5em 0.5px 0;}

Code: Select all

div#main ul li,
div#main ol li,
#footer ul li,
#footer ol li {margin-left:20px;padding:2px 2px 2px 5px;list-style-type: square;}

If I understand you correct, the child won't be able to change the list-type. Does that mean I have to change the album css to make picturelist and thumb a div?

Posted: **Fri Feb 17, 2012 4:39 pm**

If you want square on all li etc. but not on album add #main, if that is the div it's in, in front of picture list in album style sheet and remove any offending calls for #main ul/li in album style sheet...

Thanks Mark. Arnoud helpt me out. You both came up with the same solution
