I asked an excellent Web designer to critique my site, and he created a
whole new style sheet that made it look better. The problem was, there were
some lines of code he included that I didn't understand. Obviously I need to
know what every line of my CSS does, so here are some examples of what he
wrote. As for why I don't ask him to explain it, he's been very impatient
with me when I asked that type of question.
The first example is figuring out the logic of when to use !important ...
ul#navlist li.inCat em, ul#navlist li em, ul#navlist li.inCat strong {
display: block;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 700 !important;
color: #675645; /* was 000 */
padding: 6px 0 6px 30px !important;
}
Second example looks like a hack for IE6 but not sure what it's trying to
accomplish with that 1% ...
* html ul#navlist li a, * html ul#navlist li.inCat em, * html ul#navlist
li.inCat strong {
height: 1%;
}
And here's one of the pages formatted by the CSS ...
