/* ============================================================
   Managed IT Services in Austin — page-specific layer.
   NESTED CITY page: /it-managed-services/managed-it-services-in-austin
   CITY CLUSTER, 19 SECTIONS (two of them nested — see below).

   Loads AFTER css/it-managed-services-zazz.css (both requested with a
   never-used ?v token, see $zmit_css_v in the page, so Cloudflare cannot serve
   a stale variant of the shared sheet).

   CLONED FROM css/managed-it-services-in-dallas.css — NOT chicago, NOT
   houston. Record of why, so nobody redoes the comparison:
     - No nested sibling matches austin id-for-id. All three siblings
       (chicago / dallas / houston) are already migrated, so their live HTML
       carries zero Elementor markup; intersecting austin's container ids
       against their recorded header id-maps yields only the five
       template-CONSTANT chrome ids every time (820bdff hero, 65e1765
       testimonials, 1ad22e1 FAQ, 7572440 contact, a8ff3b4 insights). An id
       intersection therefore cannot pick the reference here.
     - The tie-break is COMPONENT COVERAGE. Austin needs .zab-problems,
       .zab-band, .zab-steps and .zab-cmp-acc. Dallas has all four; chicago has
       NONE of them (it carries an approach-accordion and a pricing strip that
       austin does not have); houston is dallas plus a standalone
       .zmit-services-lead band austin does not need. Dallas is the closest fit
       with the least surgery.

   DEPTH-1 SECTION MAP (walked inside data-elementor-type="wp-page" on this
   page's raw HTML, then CONFIRMED against the live 1440 DOM):

   TALL-CHILD RECURSION CASE: 38e198d (articles) and 1ad22e1 (FAQ) PARSE as
   CHILDREN of the testimonials container 65e1765, not as its siblings — the
   live 1440 DOM shows only 17 direct children of the wp-page root, with those
   two nested one level down. They are BUILT AS SIBLINGS here, which is how
   they render, and the reason the flat child count is 17 and not 19.

   RULES DELETED from the dallas clone because this page genuinely does NOT
   have those bands (verified against the live 1440 DOM, not just the raw):
     - .zmit-final*  — NO final-CTA band. A page shipped earlier the same day
       with dead final-CTA rules left in, and the shared sheet's absolutely
       positioned figure escaped its grid cell onto the body copy.
     - .zab-trust*   — no "Why leading businesses choose" dark 4-up panel.
     - .zab-adv*     — no "Strategic IT advantages" 2-up card band.
   55 rule blocks and their three section comments were removed, not commented
   out. Do not reintroduce any of them on this page.

   PER-PAGE DELTAS vs the dallas clone:
     - hero banner URL is this page's own artwork
       (Managed-IT-Services-in-Austin-Banner-Image-scaled.webp). It must equal
       the page's <link rel=preload> and the value in .zmit-hero::before.
     - S03 PROBLEMS is a DIFFERENT COMPONENT here. Dallas is an 8-item 4/4 tick
       checklist on white with an answer line and a CTA. Austin is a DARK 5-up
       panel of title+copy cards with no ticks, no answer line and no CTA — so
       the tick/answer/CTA rules are replaced below rather than restyled.
     - S14 c8a0882 is a NEW component (ucaddon_dynamic_flip_boxes) that none of
       the 20 migrated pages implements. Built in the zab- namespace as
       .zab-flip, geometry MEASURED on live at 1440 — see that block.
     - compare table is SIX rows here (dallas has seven), which is exactly why
       the Zazz-column hairline must stay row-count independent.
     - recognition band uses live's WHITE logo variants (clutch-white 130x70,
       designrush-white 203x70, goodferm-white 241x70), not the colour SVGs.
     - certification badges are 227x230 / 228x230 on THIS page. The dallas
       clone carried a stale 225x150 intrinsic size for the same six files,
       which is a CLS source and shortens the band.
     - the service-card HOVER LIFT is present on this page and is ADDED here —
       see the SERVICE CARDS block near the end of this file.

   Structural counts, all read off this page:
     12 service cards / 12 linked, 5 problem cards, 6 comparison rows (desktop
     table and mobile accordion both), 6 compliance badges, 3 steps, 3 stories,
     3 articles, 16 industry flip-boxes, 3 counters (two suffix-only, one bare),
     10 testimonials, 21 FAQ items split 11 / 10.

   .zmit-article-cat is unused here (live's Articles cards carry no category
   term) and .zmit-article-exc is never rendered at all (owner instruction).
   .zmit-stat .big .pre is unused — no counter has a prefix — but kept so the
   stats partial stays copy-safe for the sibling city pages.

   1. HERO — every number below read off live's rendered DOM at 1440
   (8e8eda0 hero-section = 718 tall, 41deb3c logo strip = 125, total 843).

   Live's hero inner is a flex ROW that fills the 1365 box exactly:
       left column 757 | gap 100 | form card 508
   The left column carries a flat 20px gap between crumb / pill / headline /
   sub / CTA and a 50px bottom pad, which is what produces the 718.
   The form CARD (6c4c282, not the HubSpot widget inside it) is stretched to
   the row and carries margin-bottom:-95.55px, so it starts at the hero's own
   content top (y 140 — above the breadcrumb) and overhangs 96px into the
   logo strip. Family A's -132px overhang is a different number, not no
   overhang: measure, don't carry.

/* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
   SERVICE CARDS - matched to live, measured in the browser on
   /managed-it-services-charlotte at 1440 (not inferred from CSS); this page is
   the same Elementor template with the same widget ids, so the values carry.

   Live's card:  .uc_post_grid_style_one_item is TRANSPARENT with a
                 1px solid #eff0f7 border and 10px radius; the fill comes from
                 an inner .uc_content.padding (background #eff0f7, padding 30px).
                 Reproduced here as one filled box plus the same 1px border, so
                 the rendered box metrics match.

   Live's bullets are the browser's NATIVE disc marker:
                 ul  padding-left 20px, list-style disc
                 li  padding-left 0
                 ::marker  rgb(173,173,236) at 14px
   The SHARED sheet (not ours to edit) instead draws a custom ::before "•" in
   rgb(110,113,200) at 15px with li padding-left 18px - a darker, larger bullet.
   These rules override it; the page sheet loads after the shared one and the
   selectors are more specific.

   Live's "Explore ..." link sits 10px below the list (margin-top: 10px).

   HOVER - MEASURED by hovering live with a real pointer at 1440. Seraphinite
   injects these rules at runtime, so they appear in NONE of live's stylesheets
   and the CSSOM does not hold them; a synthetic mouseover event does not fire
   CSS :hover either. Both methods give a false "live has no hover" reading.
   Actual, on cards that HAVE a link:
       fill      #eff0f7 -> #d5e0f3

/* HOVER: THIS PAGE DOES HAVE THE LIFT. The clone carried a signed comment
   saying a blue border and a translate(-10px,-10px) "were removed" because
   they made the hovered card jump out of the grid. That comment is corrected
   rather than deleted, because the earlier reading was wrong twice over:

     1. A grep for `translate(-10px` on the sibling sheets matched that REMOVAL
        COMMENT and was counted as an active rule — the sheets never carried
        the declaration at all.
     2. The "measured three times, identity matrix" reading probed the WRONG
        NODE. Live splits the hover across two elements: the transform and the
        border sit on the OUTER `.hasLink` item, the fill change sits on the
        INNER `.uc_content`. Probing `.uc_content` for a transform correctly
        returns the identity matrix while the outer item really is translated.

   Live's own rule, present verbatim in THIS page's raw HTML:

     #uc_service_grid_card_elementor_e061f2f .hasLink:hover {
         transform: translate(-10px,-10px);
         border: 1px solid #0161ff;
         transition: all .3s ease }
     #uc_service_grid_card_elementor_e061f2f .hasLink:hover .uc_content {
         background-color: #d5e0f3 }

   Our markup emits `<div class="zmit-svc-card no-image">` with an inner
   `<a class="z-explore">` overlay and has NO `.has-link` class, so the state
   is keyed on `:has(.z-explore)`. A rule keyed on `.has-link` matched nothing
   on an earlier page and silently killed the working fill hover while a
   CSS-text grep still reported the declaration "present" — verify by
   RENDERING and reading the computed values with transitions disabled, never
   by grepping the declaration.

   Cards live does NOT link get no hover change at all; on this page all 12
   cards are linked, so `:has(.z-explore)` matches every one of them. */

   S11 RECOGNITION BAND — 375 OVERFLOW FIX (measured, not guessed).

   The shared sheet pins the band's CTA with
   `.zmit-recognized-cta .z-btn { white-space: nowrap }`, so the label
   "Schedule Your Free IT Assessment" has a 334px min-content width. Below 681
   the band collapses to a single `1fr` column, and a `1fr` track is
   minmax(auto, 1fr) — it cannot shrink under that 334px floor. At 375 the
   band's content box is only 263px, so the heading, copy, review logos AND the
   button all run 45px past the black box and are visibly clipped.

   `body { overflow-x: hidden }` swallows the page-level scrollbar, which is
   exactly why scrollWidth still reports 375 and a numbers-only check passes —
   it was caught by SCREENSHOT at 375, per CLAUDE.md's mobile rule.

   Letting the label wrap drops the min-content floor and the column fits.
   Measured identically on the charlotte reference at 375, so this is a
   shared-sheet interaction inherited by every city page, not something this
   page introduced; the fix is kept page-local because the shared sheet is
   owned by another session (CLAUDE.md).

   S14 INDUSTRY CARDS — live c8a0882 / widget 920baf7, a

   take the zab- prefix — never invent a per-page one).

                       ul padding-left 20 / margin 12px 0

   THE FLIP IS SWITCHED OFF ON THIS PAGE — this is the whole reason the band is
   not built as a flip. Live's page-level Elementor overrides, read out of the
   CSSOM on the live page, are:

     .flip-card-inner { transform:none!important; transition:none!important;
                        transform-style:flat!important }
     .flip-card:hover .flip-card-inner { transform:none!important }
     .flip-card-back  { display:none!important }
     .flip-card-front { backface-visibility:visible!important }
     .flip-card       { perspective:none!important }
     .flip-card       { cursor:pointer; transition:.3s }
     .flip-card:hover { transform:translateY(-6px);
                        box-shadow:0 15px 35px rgba(0,0,0,.08) }

   So the visible component is a STATIC icon+title tile with a 6px lift on
   hover; the three-bullet back face is never displayed. That back-face copy is
   therefore NOT emitted in our markup — shipping keyword-rich text behind
   `display:none` is cloaking and fails the accessibility bar, and CLAUDE.md's
   quality bar outranks copying live's flaw. The bullets are recorded in the
   page's `$industries` array so the owner can decide to surface them.

   The band is rendered inside the house .z-container (1340 at x43) rather than
   live's 1400, so the five tracks are computed from the container instead of
   pinned at 260: (1340 - 4*15) / 5 = 256, 4px narrower than live and still
   five-up. Height stays live's 270.

   S06 RECOGNITION LOGOS — the two breakpoints where an inherited rule silently

   768: live's column-gap for the three marks is ZERO and the marks total
   130 + 203 + 241 = 574px, which fits the 613px copy track. The clone's
   inherited 36px gap needs 646px in a 641px track, so the last mark wraps and
   the band grows ~106px. Zero the column gap and let the row gap do the work.

   375: live keeps the marks at FULL size (130/203/241 x 70) across three rows.
   The clone capped them at max-width 96 / max-height 26, which collapses all
   three into one 26px row — and `max-height` beats `height`, so releasing only
   max-width does nothing. BOTH caps are released above in the base rule.
