He's made quite a few changes, no gallery or anchor containers, etc. Makes it a little difficult to compare what Jim did to the original Nicholls' markup. Well, he did say "experimentation and blind guessing," so I guess it's not surprising that they are significantly different. What gets me is that his .zoom and .zoom:hover rules, while simpler, do seem to be appropriate to the purpose, and they do work in browsers not based on Webkit. Opera, IE, and Firefox all have no problem with it. I wonder what it is about the Webkit browsers that keeps that CSS from succeeding, while it works fine in the IE, FF, and Opera engines... cheers, scott ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/
