I have not done much Web stuff… but
is using css positioning for this considered much better than tables?
Why not just use a table, would seem so
simple?

Calling all CSS experts
Use float left etc - here is code that works in
firefox and ie
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
#TitleBar{
display:block;
}
.aTitle{
width:20%;
float:left;
text-align:center;
border-bottom:thin solid #000;
}
#th60{
width:60%;
border-bottom:thick solid #000;
}
</style>
</head>
<body">
<div id="TitleBar">
<div class="aTitle"><h2>Heading
1</h2></div>
<div class="aTitle"
id="th60"><h2>Heading 2</h2></div>
<div class="aTitle"><h2>Heading
2</h2></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

I dont know, what I want is three 'title' blocks across the page 20%/60%/20%, I
assumed inline would do this (does in ie)

Hi Neven
Are you sure you don't want
position:relative;
rather than
display:inline;

Hi
I have a web site, I'm in the porcess of 'de-framing', 'de-tabling' and
'ajaxing' (hidden frames were used to do hidden submits) but am puzzled
by firefox v explorer behaviour
ie I am using divs to align things and have a series of divs across the
top of a page
<DIV id="PageHeadingLeft"
class="PageHeadingLeft"><H2> Acc No:
2882<BR>KUMEU ALUM - Merv Test Account</H2></DIV>
the css for this is
DIV.PageHeadingLeft {
vertical-align: middle;
text-align: left;
font-family: arial;
display: inline;
width: 20%;
border: 0px solid black;
}
now the problem in firefox the following div breaks (ie it ignores the
display: inline!) but ie respects it!
What should I do? (other than abandon divs and go back to tables!)
