Placeholder text of fields in IE10 of the font family Comfortaa seem to be cut off on the right side.
Here is the fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fA89K/2/
It only happens on the initial paint of the browser in IE10. I tested it with a different font and it works fine. Comfortaa seems to be causing the issue...any suggestions on a fix (besides using a different font)?
I could always focus and unfocus the form fields on load...but that just seems really silly.
Edit:
Here is a screenshot:
Yeah I'm seeing the same issue on Win7 IE10. It shows if you focus on the field then un-focus which doesn't really help.
The solution is to set the letter-spacing to .01em then onload set it back to 0.
Works a treat.
I was looking at a friends website and noticed most of the text has the bottom cut off but only when viewing in chrome. I poked around in the css but couldn't seem to find the issue.
Can anyone help me out?
The site is http://www.customcasez.com/
The same issue exists here, Bubbler+One font (at least for me in chrome).
here is an image about how it looks at my place.
So, I guess the issue is not with your website but with the font itself.
Try replacing the font-family with some similar font or try to download it from another source
I've had the same issue. Text in input box looked fine in Firefox however it was cut off from bottom in Chrome.
Check with padding of the input box, it is smartly managed in Firefox but not in Chrome!
I gave padding as padding:0px 6px; (or whatever you intend to give!)
I have a mysterious (at least for me) css background image problem, that I run into only with Google Chrome. I have found similar topics, but unlike those, here no Javascript, JQuery or anything else is involved, it is pure CSS. It's just not working as it should.
If you open up the page www.bodrogietterem.hu, the background image should be below the entire content area (as it is in other browsers). In Chrome a horizontal and vertical white area is appearing.
Once you start scrolling, the background image appears all okay, and it stays there from then on. Similarly, when you open the dev tool with inspect element, the background image is immediately there, and stays there, too.
this is the pertaining css:
body.page-node-1 div#main{
background:#FFFFFF url('/sites/all/themes/bodrogietterem/images/bodrogi_bodrogi.jpg') bottom;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-attachment:fixed;
background-position:50% 135px;
padding-bottom:0px;
margin-bottom:0px;
}
and attaching two screengrabs on how it looks like, and how it should look like (well, I'm not allowed to attach these, as a new user, but have a look here:
http://www.bodrogietterem.hu/chrome_issue.JPG
and here
http://www.bodrogietterem.hu/should_look_like.JPG
It happens on sub-pages, too, but I think the root of the problem must be the same.
I'm using Vista, with up to date Chrome (20.0.1132.57), and up to date other browsers. btw, the second screenshot was taken in Chrome, too, but after opening the dev tool
many thanks for your kind help,

The latest version of Chrome is 21.0... so try updating chrome browser and see if it appears ok in the latest version. The screenshots lead to a 404 error page, so try uploading the screenshots again.
I also checked the page in IE7, IE8, IE9 the page looks good in all 3, IE7 however shows a horizontal scrollbar at bottom but the background image looks ok.
Your page looks fine in Chrome in windows 7 (Chrome 20.0.1132.57)
I have had problems in the past where various toolbars / addons that have been installed interfere with the CSS on a page quite significantly rendering Chrome to appear to bug out in isolated incidents. Try running chrome with no addons / plgins installed and see if it fixes your problem.
One observation on your CSS: #content contains floated elements that aren't cleared. I dont think that's the problem here but could be mixed with the above possibly.
Let me know if that helps at all.
Thanks for your helpful thoughts, I finally managed to resolve the problem.
While fiddling around, I measured the height of the white area, and it turned out to be 135px (which is exactly the top position of the background in the CSS above). So I decided that for whatever reason, that attribute was causing the problem, and I was right.
as a quick and dirty solution, I added 135px of white area to the top of the background image, and set the background-position property's top to 0px - which immediately fixed the issue.
as for the vertical white area, it was resolved by binding the background image to the #main-wrapper div instead of the #main div (it is a Drupal 7 build). Again, I don't exactly know why, but it fixed the problem instantly.
I love, how the web should be precise and logical, and it still stays random and ad hoc at times
thanks again for your time and effort, bests,

Had the same problem with two pages of http://www.stoerbeton.nl but I think I solved it after reading your above posts and some thinking.
The problem was probably in the general background: url; attribute and loading of the website css. I replaced all general background: #222222 url repeat etc.; for background-image:; , background-repeat:; and background-color:; etc.
Please let me know if your website works after editing your css. I'm still testing.

Imagine CSS like:
.x {
background: blue none;
border-radius: 6px;
}
and HTML like:
<div>Words and <span class="x">decorated</span> words</div>
The height of the span reading 'decorated' is going to vary wildly between different browsers, and between different OSes running otherwise the same browser.
Is there any way to make it be the same height?
(I don’t want to move to inline-block or sacrifice the text using exactly the same baseline.)
My experience with avoiding of different height is setting exact line-height and font-size
Sounds like there is something else causing your problem. I just tried a basic html5 document with the snippits from your question and compared the alignment on Windows with Chrome, Safari, FF & IE. They all rendered exactly the same except for IE9 which had a 1px gap above the span only.
Granted Mac renders fonts differently from Windows, and I didn't test on linux or mac, but 9px!!!??? Here are some things I'd investigate:
First, try a basic test file if you are working in a larger project, this will limit your variables.
Second, try setting explicit fonts and ensuring they exist on all of your test machines - perhaps linux is falling back to a different font.
Third, make sure you are not zoomed in or using a custom font size browser setting on any of the browsers (I ran into this one a while back where somehow my IE was set to 105% zoom.)
Finally, if all of that fails, you might want to try using a web font (#font-face) and see if that renders more strictly.
Edit:
In lieu of the new information in your comment, another strategy would be to use JavaScript to inspect the rendered heights of some off-screen elements and then programmatically adjust styles accordingly. You'll probably get a huge FOUC, but you can use a whiteout div to minimize the shift.

That's a little screencap of the headers on a site I am working on. I wanted to use a google web font (quicksand) and it looks great in firefox. However it looks skinny, jagged and worst of all isn't the same size even so it doesn't span the entire menu.
I've tried googling this and it seems this is currently not fixable from what I can tell. Is there any way to use one of these fonts without this problem? The only thing I can think of is using images instead of text but I don't really want to do that.
I think this problem only becomes really apparent with smaller font sizes. But I still think there is a difference in bigger sizes too just not as noticeable.
You can specify a text-shadow of the same color as the background:
text-shadow: 0 1px 1px white;
