Any idea why the doctype would matter concerning the following CSS? div#sideNav a:before { content: url(left_curve.gif); vertical-align: bottom; }
When used with a HTML transitional doctype it works as expected with the included image aligned to the bottom of the inline a element. When used with a XHTML strict doctype it does not line up with the bottom of the inline a element, but rather only lines up with the baseline. I have not tried other doctypes yet. This has been tested in Firefox; it obviously does not apply in IE since IE currently does not know how to handle generated CSS content.
