Georg, As always in awe of your ability to see the causes amongst all the dross, thanks. Am getting the sense of the changes you made. My starting objective was, beneath a fixed banner (code not included), to arrange between 2 lines of h2 a bank of images aligned with 3 boxes of text which would all be visible (before scrolling to following images), hence initially I set the ContainerBoth height. In Gecko mode your code adjustments display just fine but in IE7 text sizing throws the text box heights out displacing the alignments. How do I get control of height position and width of these floating and variable height boxes of text in both IE7 and other browsers?
Also within IntroImage the p captions to the images are offset in IE7 but are align correct within Gecko. Again how do I get them back into alignment in IE7 and other browsers? I note for some reason on the middle image the p starting "In_" is not visible.

Give IE a "strict-mode" / "standards mode" triggering doctype. The one you have is incomplete and makes all browsers stay in the old "quirks mode". IE has its own box-model in that old mode. Your original CSS runs into too many IE bugs, so to give you a place to start I made it more IE-friendly - including IE6... <http://www.gunlaug.no/tos/alien/tony/test_08_1124.html> Also introduced more floats and removed height-restrictions, to make it generally more cross-browser friendly. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
