I also do the latter. A bit counter intuitive, but I have actually found that getting the site to work properly and as desired in FF and then tweaking what is necessary for IE is easier and quicker then the other way around.
I think it is because it separates the problems of whether the error is my code or quirks of IE. Once I have it worked out in FF and verified by a validator. I know the problems with my code have been worked out. Then I can test in IE and usually don't have too many problems as long as I have avoided the worst short comings of IE. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code.
