If you want that effect in IE 7 using Fat Erik's code, you need to switch to Quirks mode. A simple test page [1] using an incomplete Doctype shows what I mean. This will, I'm sure, create other problems to overcome in a production page / site. IE 7.0.5xx shows the pipes on my Win XP Pro SP2 Box. hth [1] http://www.nannery.net/atest.html Jim Nannery www.redfernenterprises.com PS....can't tell if this works on mac IE 5.2.... can't test that OS / browser combo locally..... and IIRC, mac IE isn't affected by Doctype switching....
