Would be more convenient to have a button for that, I'll have a look at a website which does this (http://www.miscdebris.net/blog). > successfully tested a method to get the background image to scale for > liquid > layout.

I found a problem though, between the main body and the right sidebar is a vertical dotted line, which moves not correctly if you resize the browser window. The line is hard to see, so watch closely. The solution of the problem would be not to resize the sidebar as well, so make it fixed size, or position the line also relative (if that's possible). > > I have uploaded everything to our SF website.

Do you know how to validate CSS? http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ 1 error and over 150 warnings. It used to be 1 warning (many warnings are about the same issue though), so there should not be much to do to fix this. > > Alan Good work, Werner -- Dr. Werner Smekal Institut fuer Allgemeine Physik Technische Universitaet Wien Wiedner Hauptstr 8-10 A-1040 Wien Austria email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://www.iap.tuwien.ac.at/~smekal phone: +43-(0)1-58801-13463 (office) +43-(0)1-58801-13469 (laboratory) fax: +43-(0)1-58801-13499 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Plplot-devel mailing list Plplot-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/plplot-devel
