Hi everybody, I'd be grateful if some of you could help me. Please open IE7 or 6 and go to: _http://www.giuseppecraparottacv.co.uk/work-web3.html y_ou see that there's a "works" link - an <a> tag displayed as a block - in each of the first 4 boxes - all <li> part of an <ul>. The <a> tag is absolutely positioned in the context of the <li>, which is relatively positioned.
This styles seem to imply that in IE6 and 7 a clear grey border appears below the first 4 <li>'s, as you can see. It is actually the page background, not a border part of my design. In Firefox there's no grey between the boxes, which is the way it should be. Besides, when I increase the page's size, the works' button looses part of the blue. How can I get rid of these defects? Is something I do wrong? Thanks much, Giuseppe I attach the CSS styles below, in bold those I guess are relevant body { padding:0; margin:0; font:0.9em Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color:#BFBFBF; } h1, p, strong, ul, li, .field, a, div { padding:0; margin:0; } a { text-decoration:none; } ul { min-width:574px; width:39.8em; margin:0 auto; list-style-type:none; border-right:4px solid #737272; border-left:4px solid #737272; } .field { min-width:574px; width:39.8em; margin:0 auto; background:#ffffff; padding-bottom:0.7em; border-right:4px solid #737272; border-left:4px solid #737272; } h1 { margin:0 auto; font-size:0.60em; color:#ffffff; text-align:center; line-height:1.55em; width:558px; height:1.80em; background:#00abe4 url(img/bg-header.jpg) no-repeat bottom center; } *li { position:relative; width:100%; } *.odd { background-color:#EAF4F5; } .even { background-color:#ffffff; } *a.works { display:block; width:3.7em; height:1.4em; text-align:center; color:#ffffff; background:url(img/bg-works.jpg) repeat-x; position:absolute; top:79%; left:80%; }* li p { padding:1.1em 1em 0 1.5em; width:37.3em; } li .popup{ color:#00B9F6; line-height:1.8em; } #browse { margin:0 auto; min-width:574px; width:39.8em; height:4.06em; color:#6C6C6C; background-color:#E1E1E1; border-top:3px solid #737272; border-right:4px solid #737272; border-left:4px solid #737272; border-bottom:4px solid #737272; } #browse p { padding:0.65em 1em 0 1.5em; } ul.areas { list-style:none; border:none; } li.area { width:6em; /*height:26px;*/ height:1.83em; float:left; /*background:url(img/bg-areas-shad.jpg) no-repeat;*/ display:inline; margin-top:0.39em; } li.area a { display:block; width:7.855em; min-width:79px; height:2.1em; text-align:center; /*min-width:79px;*/ color:#000000; font:bold 0.7em/2em verdana; margin-top:0.5em; margin-left:0.40em; } li.mktg { margin-left:1.3em; } li.radio { margin-left:9.6em; margin-right:9.5em; } li.mktg a { background:#F92D2D url(img/bg-areas-mktg.jpg) no-repeat left top; } li.mktg a:hover { background:#F92D2D url(img/bg-areas-mktg.jpg) no-repeat left -8.3em; } li.radio a { background: #FFF005 url(img/bg-areas-radio.jpg) no-repeat left top; } li.radio a:hover { background: #FFF005 url(img/bg-areas-radio.jpg) no-repeat left -8.3em; } li.res a { background: #809A79 url(img/bg-areas-res.jpg) no-repeat left top; } li.res a:hover { background: #809A79 url(img/bg-areas-res.jpg) no-repeat left -8.3em; } ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
