HTML and CSS Reference
In-Depth Information
supplied, they correspond to the right and bottom edges of the visible
area, and Netscape assumes the top and left values are
0
. Therefore,
clip=
"75,100" is equivalent to
clip=
"0,0,75,100".
The
clip
attribute is handy for hiding portions of a layer, or for creating
fade and wipe effects using JavaScript functions to change the clipping
window over time.
H.3.1.9. The style and class attributes
Use the
style
attribute with the
<layer>
tag to create an inline style for
all the content inside a layer. The
class
attribute lets you label the layer
with a name that refers to a predefined class of the
<layer>
tag declared
in some document-level or externally defined stylesheet. Accordingly,
you may choose to use a stylesheet rather than individual and redund-
ant
bgcolor
tag attributes to define a background color for all your doc-
ument layers or for a particular class of layers. [
Inline Styles: The style
H.3.2. The <ilayer> Tag (Antiquated)
While you control the position of a
<layer>
using
top
and
left
attribute
coordinates relative to the document's entire display space, Netscape 4
provides a separate tag,
<ilayer>
, that lets you position individual layers
with respect to the current flow of content, much like an inline image.
