As far as I can see, CSS specifications do not specify the color of the area between the two lines, when you set border style to double. Apparently Firefox (and Opera) uses the element's background color for it, whereas IE makes it transparent. The latter sounds more natural to me (since the background color is supposed to cover the content area and padding, but the border is outside them), but in any case, this seems to be a browser difference, not a bug. > Is there a way to show a thin line a few pixels inside the border of > this white box similar to what FF is showing? In your case, it seems that there is a simple way: wrap the element <div id="main">...</div> inside an outer div, and set the outer div's background color to the desired value (white, in this case). -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- 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/
