Hi First the back story: I'm working at a university using a piece of web authoring software called Course Genie. Teaching staff write their materials in Word, hit generate and out pops the web page. Fine.
My job is to write templates so this looks pretty, however, the html leaves few hooks work with on. Basically there's <body> <div id="maincontent"> <h1></h1> Assorted other html tags </div> </body> One option I'm looking at is to use the h1 element to introduce a little graphical flavour. So far so good. Here's my problem: I've set a background image to the h1 element, and using negative margins and padding etc. I'm trying to get it to 'pop' out of the containing div. In Firefox2 for win this works more or less as I want it to, but in IE6 the part of the image outside the containing div cannot be seen. Any solutions? link: http://www.pauljinks.co.uk/itc/cgexperiments/ Many thanks in advance Paul -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Check out my website: http://www.pauljinks.co.uk :o) ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
