1. In IE6 under Win98SE it's the same as Brian noticed... I don't know the fix either, but as I remember well, this problem has passed this list between now and 1 or 1.5 week ago. - It has to do with the background of the submenu's in relation to other backgrounds or something like that. I think it was Georg (Gunlaug Sørtun) who had explicated the reason why, and also had a solution / hack / workaround for IE. Perhaps you can do a search in the list, or maybe Georg can help to point to the right place. ;-) 2. The html-validator reports some errors. I'm not sure, but maybe changing to an other DOCtype can solve the < < problem earlier in this thread. 3. The css-validator cannot work because of the html-error, so checking the css is somewhat difficult. 4. It will depend of the monitor, but in the BLOG (sidebar) section I allmost cannot see a difference in color between the red link (head) and the red subtitle. The head/link is even some more blurring and has the same intensity (on greyscale) as the blue background; with my monitor/eyes I can hardly see it. - Also it is not immediately clear that the link is a link (no underline), you have to hover over the link to see the pointer change in the hand. - A more contrasting color for the link + underline can solve this. See screenshot <http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/images/north-star-blog.gif>. 5. In general, be carefull with colored words on colored backgrounds. There has to be enough contrast and also enough difference in color. For example, some colorblind people don't see anything of the blog-items as they are now, reports the Colorblindfilter <http://colorfilter.wickline.org/?a=1;r=;l=9;j=1;u=kaiserklan.com/roundtable;t=p>. 6. Checking the many-many links with the WebDesignGroup link-checker <http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/valet/linktest.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fkaiserklan.com%2Froundtable%2F&date=&type=Full> shows there are only a few not working. Congratulations again! :-) Greetings, francky ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
