Checkbox not displays on chrome - css

I cannot make chrome display correctly the checkboxes generated with the CakePHP form helper.
Labels are OK, but not checkbox can be seen, nor the value can be changed.
In the other web browsers it works OK.
Please see the attached screenshot.
Ideas ?

Found it. It was, of course, a css problem. I've defined height: 100% for input fields. It seems that chrome handles this in a different way than other browsers do.
Removing that line, makes chrome display checkboxes ok.
Regards.

IE10, Same Domain IFRAME and Style shset

In my application, I am including one page within another via an iframe. I'm working on a quick prototype here, so I don't want to take additional time right now to implement something fancier].
Everything looks good except for IE10 on Windows 7. From what I can tell, the style sheet of the iframe is being added into the cascade of the style sheet for the page and causing strange display errors. I'm a little dumbfounded this is even possible.
If I comment out the iframe, everything renders correctly.
I can also see the styles changing as the iframe loads:
Pre-iframe: http://screencast.com/t/8qcl2U4Uuy
Post-iframe: http://screencast.com/t/fzR9esWsq
Anyone else experience strange behavior like this?
Thanks in advance.
Thank you for your reply. My coworker was actually able to help me trace this back to an issue with the IE10 developer toolbar.
I was able to create a file that replicates the issue: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1686497/iframe.zip
If you open the index, you'll notice that there is no margin on the body. While you have that page open and you open the F12 Developer Toolbar in IE10 (10.0.9200.16540) on Windows 7 (at least), you will see the body becomes padded and the parent window font switches to Times. Hope this helps someone!

Check/radio box disappear when using -webkit-perspective in Safari

Here's a quick demo, Safari only. http://jsfiddle.net/2late2die/8AJnD/
If you remove the perspective style, all checkboxes appear normal. Using -webkit-transform-style:preserve-3d does the same thing (i.e. checkboxes disappear). Seems to apply to radio boxes as well but not input elements.
Most likely this is a bug in Safari but I just wanted to confirm that there are no solutions to this.
Yes it is a bug in safari. Chrosme does not even support it yet.
here is an example that works in safari: http://www.webkit.org/blog-files/3d-transforms/perspective-by-example.html
This means that it is really the inputs that break the page. try to submit the bug to apple :)
Here is the same page with 2 inputs added to it: http://jsfiddle.net/8AJnD/17/
as you see they do not show.

CSS : Firefox right click selects all on my site...why?

I have built a context menu but have found annoyingly that when I right click on my site in firefox all text and images just seem to randomly get selected. It is not a JS issue as I have removed all JS from the site. Thinking it must be a css issue. I have never encountered anything like this before...
I don't have an example page to show I'm afraid. Has anyone experienced this before in Firefox. I am using the latest FF4.
Cheers Guys!
*UPDATE:*
Here is a pasting of the pure html from the page that is having issues,
http://jsbin.com/aneja4/3/edit
did you try to disable all your addons you have installed? maybe one of them is causing the problem.
I have FF 4 but neven encountered this problem before.
And I could be wrong but I don't know of any css code that would be able to select text. it's pure for the design and structure of the site. it will be mostlikely a js problem or something else
I have seen this too... I think it has something to do with the way the site is structured... If you have nexted divs, or a div that does not quite cover the entire page, a right click on the parent div seems to select everything in the nested div. It's quite annoying... especially when trying to build a custom context menu, or use the default menu to refresh the page...
Any fixes/changes that we should know about for FF that is causing this? I'm using FF4 and XP (yeah, yeah... corp. system)

It's likely a problem with your HTML layout that firefox is struggling to work with. But without seeing any code, it's not possible to speculate any further down that path. #JDF's suggestions may help you, though.
If you can't work it out, and can't live with it, you could just disable the ability to select text.
In Firefox (and other standards-compliant browsers), you'd use the CSS user-select: none;.
See this question for more info on how to achieve this: How to disable text selection highlighting using CSS?
This is most likely caused by having a contentEditable element on your page. Any element (other than body it seems) that contains editable content will be highlighted/selected when you right click on it in Firefox (4.0 and 5.0 is all I can confirm). If everything on your page is wrapped in a div it'll appear that the whole page is selected. If you (can) right-click somewhere on the body the regular context menu should work.
Although I can't see any instances of contentEditable in your code on jsbin, it could be added by a script that I can't see (possibly even modernizr?).
I think this is related (although it doesn't match exactly)

http://aloha-editor.org/ exhibits the same behaviour when right-clicking anywhere inside the #wrapper div.

Why is Chrome breaking this layout?

See http://www.arthwine.co.uk.
This used to work fine in Chrome and works fine in all other browsers (afaik). Now, for some reason, Chrome is hiding most of the left column (apart from the bear). If you look on a different browser, there is a panel with the branding and a menu in it under the bear.
I can't figure out at all why it's doing this. Any ideas?
The reason it breaks is because of the bear. Or rather, it is because of the way you relatively positions the image of the bear outside the bounds of every single one of it's parent elements except the body.
This makes chromes rendering engine choke on your layout somehow.
You can test this very easily by just deleting the image of the bear from the source code, and see how everything else suddenly pops into place.
I checked it in Chrome 9.0.597.98 and I had the same problem. The solution that I found, is to add position:absolute; for the #header.
I don't see anything wrong in Chrome. I see the menu and the branding.

How can I display one style in Safari and a different style in Chrome?

My client is starting to get antsy....so any help would be greatly appreciated. I am having issues with my secondary page header images shifting. It is displaying correctly in Firefox, I haven't been able to check in IE yet w/out access to a PC. It was displaying correctly in Chrome, but shifting in Safari.
I added the "webkit hack" to write a specific css style for Safari, but once I did that....it started shifting in Chrome. What can I do to fix this issue??

There's some problem with the way you're using your .clearfix class that I'm not sure of. If you add a clear:both; to your .page_line class it will fix your problem.
You could parse the user agent and pass a different CSS file based on the result. However, it seems like a weird issue that shouldn't happen with proper CSS; can you post the specific bit that doesn't work?
By the way, you should read up on animation queue in jQuery! Hover many times on your menu and it'll keep flashing for a while.
The repositioning of .page_about is pretty odd. Why don't you just use .custom_title for the entire header? That wouldn't require such odd re-positioning.
