I'll have another look at 8bit png files. I'll check out the min height css style too. I thought I had seen it somewhere but wasn't too sure if ie understood it.
As for the navigation across the whole browser, well, I'm a little bit restricted to the small amount of content, so i based the site on a fixed width to contain what I had. I'm still a novice when it comes to font styling using ems, though I understand the upside of using them... thanks for all your help so far,, rob On 21/01/2008, Michael Adams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Mon, 21 Jan 2008 15:47:13 +0000 > Rob freeman wrote: > > > Hello again everyone.. > > > > > > Just a couple of questions... > > > > I have built a little site which uses png's.
