Hiding via CSS
Posted on May, 16 2008 at 08 PM
I am in the middle of some research for my Graphic Web Design course and I am in search of an article I thought I had read a while ago.
If I am remembering correctly, it outlined the pros and cons of using the two typical methods of hiding content using CSS styles.
Option #1:
selector { display:none; }
Option #2:
selector { text-indent: -9999px; }
The second is a little trick I first saw Zeldman use, but I know the article I am thinking of talked about how it can cause problems when using a right-aligned layout (which I have experienced first-hand), but I can’t seem to find it again.
Anyone else know how to use Google search better than me? ;)
