You mention a wide 'border' but what I see is a 750px right hand 'margin' on the image. This is apparent in IE8/7/6. Perhaps you could describe the effect that you want to achieve or show us a screenshot of the design? I'm always suspicious any time someone says that it works in IE but not in Firefox. Firefox (and every other major non-IE browser) has superior CSS rendering capabilities so if it doesn't work in Firefox there's a good chance that you are doing something wrong. I would recommend always making your site work in the non-IE browser of your choice and *then* do what is required to make IE get in line. Firefox has some great developer tools like firebug etc. so that is my choice but you could equally use the latest versions of Opera, Chrome or Safari. In most cases you will find that if you do things right your site will render correctly and similarly in all these browsers and you won't have to change anything. Use conditional comments to isolate the rules required to get the various flavours of IE into line. IE8 is actually quite good as far as CSS 2 is concerned so as long as you are not triggering it into 'compatibility mode' you generally shouldn't need to hack for IE8 either. ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
