[WSG] layout/font site test - please

Ladies and gentlemen, Sparked partly by the recent discussions on elasticity, I've been attempting to put together a 'template', based on em's and with a max-width. I've used an expression for max-width in IE 7 (pinched from Georg!). I've tested it in FF1.5, IE6 IE7, Opera 9, and Netscape

Hi Kevin, It's still acting up in IE7 (and IE6 appears to have width problems with the #header div which is throwing everything out)... In IE7 it seems to be reading the position relative from where the #gradient div is in the code - that is, if you set top to 0, it aligns with the

On Behalf Of kevin mcmonagle Hi-first this is a confusing post but i cant put it simply. Hi Kevin, I think you should first clean up that document. There are empty DIVs all over the place, you have a heading inside a SPAN element, a mispelled attribute (dl clas=event) and a few other things.
