i agree with the logical separation. that is what i would like to show. i guess a screen reader would let the operator know that there is a division of information on the page. this is what i want to accomplish with the note; to let screen readers know that this is an aside to what the main content on the page is.

so how do i make the hr black in ff and opera? with the borders like one poster advised? i had this problem once before and can't remember how i solved the problem, but i don't think it was using borders on the hr. the test page that is up has the css border and just below it is the hr at the top of the page; and they are above on the note. in ff and opera it looks like a sand-colored divot on the page, but in ie it's a black line.

there is nothing in the index of eric meyer's 3rd edition css definitive guide about hrs and styling them, so i'm a bit perplexed at the moment.

Good on you for sticking with the hr, they do come into their own when css is off, though usually I use display none and represent the hr in some other way through css. To style it more consistently try adding:

hr { background-color: #000; color: #000; border-color: #000; }

to your css. Part of the reason why they render so differently is because Internet Explorer has all sorts of proprietary attributes you can set on them like "noshade" and other such nonsense.
