KompoZer User Guide 17 December 2007 Based on version 0.7.10 25
may be inherited by text within that table or division.
For instance, if a div has font size set to 150% and a
paragraph within the div has font size set to 1em then
the text will actually be rendered at 1.5em due to it
inheriting the scale from the div.
Note A division is formed using the <div> ele-
ment. See section 4.5
An example of how this can work is given in the
next figure. Text sits in table cells, which sit within a
table which sits within a division. One of the tables
and one of the cells has font size specified. Others do
not.
Not all sizes scale in this way. Sizes set as a
percentage or in em or ex do scale and are referred to
as relative sizes. Sizes specified using the xx-small
system do not scale and are referred to as absolute
sizes
Note All sizes will zoom using the browser text
size options with the exception of sizes specified
in pixels. In this case browsers vary in response.
Font Colour. Either enter a colour into the box or
click on the button to the right. If you click on the
button the ‘Text Color’ window opens and you have
three more options. (It's like buying an ice cream in the
USA or making a phone call in the UK.) You can
specify in terms of Hue, Saturation and Brightness
(HSB), Red, Green Blue values (RGB) (range 0 to 255).
Alternatively click on one of the 70 boxes of colours
offered.
These are so-called ‘web safe’ colours because
they work on lower performance displays. Actu-
ally the full range of 216 web-safe colours is not
provided but, in any case, modern displays
normally work in at least 24-bit colour so there
is little justification for this limitation.
The next option is to click on the rainbow type area.
Whichever you choose, the selected colour appears
immediately on the square. Fine adjustments may be
made using the RGB or HSB values. A box labelled
Hex value shows the colour as a hexadecimal number.
Actually you could have done this directly without
opening the ‘Text Color’ window - when you close the
window you'll see the hex value (preceded by a '#') in
the box along with a sample of the colour on the button.
Named colours. You might have noticed, as you
clicked on one of the 70 colours, that occasionally in
the box labelled ‘Name’ the name of a colour appeared.
(Try black or red to check.) The CSS recommendation
recognises 17 colours and the names of these can be
entered directly here, or, in fact, into the selector box
without entering the ‘Text Color’ window.
Other text options
These appear below the colour option and are fairly
self-explanatory.
4.2.1.2 Background Tab
Colour
This is selected in the same way as for Font colour.
Image
You can specify an image file as a background. This
will appear behind anything else. Under ‘Tile’, if you
select ‘Don’t tile’ you get a single copy of the file which
you can position with the buttons below. If you select
‘Tile’ the image repeats in the directions selected.
Warning. The opacity option uses a property
not included in the CSS2 Specification, which is
either not implemented or implemented incor-
rectly by most browsers.
4.2.1.3 Border
Items can be bordered and the options available
provide great flexibility. Styles, thickness and colours
may be set independently for each side
Note For a border to show both width and style
must be specified.
4.2.1.4 Box
The block structure in which most elements are
located has already been mentioned (section 3.4.1).
The Box options control the display within these
blocks.
For those boxes which require a dimension to be
entered: first type the number, then select the unit
from the drop down box.
Margin Controls the distance between the ele-
ment's box, i.e. where any border would be, and either
the surrounding box or adjacent boxes.
Note Vertical margins 'collapse'. If a heading
has a bottom margin set to 20px and is followed
by a paragraph with a top margin set to 10px
the separation between them is controlled by
the greater (20px) not the sum (30 px).
Padding Controls the distance between the box
content and its border.
Width and Height allow a specific size to be allo-
cated to the content area of a box. This can be an
absolute width or a percentage of the containing box
