Re: [WSG] Link underlines in MSIE - amended

Peter,

Thanks very much for the suggestion of a grey border on the other link 
styles - you're right, it looks good.


I finally realised what was causing the bouncing; I had 
"padding-bottom: 2px" on the hover state, but not on active or visited 
- d'oh!! I'll get the hang of this one day...

Do you have a border on the a:link element? I think the bouncing is
because all the link styles should have bottom border (even if the 
color

is transparent) although a pale gray would look nice, which goes darker
on rollover.

#navlist a
{
text-align: left;
margin-right: 10px;
display:block;
float:left;
}

#navlist a:link, #navlist a:visited
{
border-bottom: 2px solid transparent;
}

#navlist a:hover, #navlist a:active
{
border-bottom: 2px solid #color of your choice;
}

Subject: [WSG] Link underlines in MSIE

Hi,

I'm starting a new website and have a border-bottom style on the
a:hover menu links. It works perfectly in Safari but doesn't show up
at all in MSIE on the PC. Would a kind person take a look and tell me
where I'm going wrong?

The page is at www.zebragraphics.co.uk/porge, css at
www.zebragraphics.co.uk/porge/css/basic.css. Both validate.

Many thanks,

Mary
