html - Height and width in <li> element nested in a <nav> not working -


i'm writing bit of code , it's not working sizing (height , width) of different classes in nav. can please explain why? other attributes running (font-size, etc...). i'm running in chrome , firefox.

the html :

<nav>     <ul>         <li class="social">a</li>         <li class="bookmarks">b</li>         <li class="logo">brand</li>         <li class="meta-putsches">c</li>         <li class="login">d</li>     </ul> </nav>

the css :

nav {   display: block;   margin: auto; } nav ul {   margin: 0;   padding: 0; } nav ul li {   display: inline;   background-color: #000000; } nav ul li.logo {   width: 16em;   height: 65px;   font-size: 53pt;   font-weight: bold;   line-height: 59pt;   color: #f4f4f4; }

your display: inline; on li element culprit. can't set width or height on inline elements. should change display: inline-block;, ensure flow not disturbed enables setting width , height on elements. have read here @ w3 specification find out more how works , why works way does.

linux - xterm copying to CLIPBOARD using copy-selection causes automatic updating of CLIPBOARD upon mouse selection -

i've tried various ways coerce xterm (versions 285 , 292) copy selection clipboard clipboard whenever press ctrl-shift-c. promising way far has been, in ~/.xresources, put this: xterm*vt100.translations: #override \ ctrl shift <keypress> c: copy-selection(clipboard) \n\ ctrl shift <keypress> v: insert-selection(clipboard) ctrl-shift-v works perfectly, copying has nuance... if restart xterm, highlighting text puts things in primary clipboard; expected, proper, default behavior. if hit ctrl-shift-c, copies current selection clipboard clipboard. the bug, however, if highlight text after first time pressed ctrl-shift-c, you'll see highlighting copies both primary and clipboard. cannot figure out how stop xterm updating clipboard upon selection... , doesn't make sense me in first place. i said, @ specific point in time, copy selection clipboard... yet starts updating automatically upon selection after doing once... anyone have workaround...
