Leaving aside the missing 'alt' attributes required by XHTML 1.0 Strict, you are missing the xmlns declaration; a link tag to your CSS needs to be (self) closed; and there is no element.

[css-d] Image within DIV alignment problem
Hi Folks, I've got a frustrating problem center-aligning images within a DIV, which can be seen here: http://niven.gotodon.net/slideshow7.html Though this does display correctly on some Windows browsers, it breaks in Firefox (Mac) and Safari (Mac). Here's a screen capture of what we're seeing: http://www.douglasniven.com/fineprint_draft.html Any ideas or suggestions? I'm spent. Many thanks in advance.

So i've thrown in a font-family check indicating if it is installed. The Red H is always the same size in case your browser minimum size limits the lower end sizes. I had to cut my minimum from 14px to 6px for the test. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] left sidebar float problems
Hi Lisa, The layout you are working from may not be ideal. The idea of using extremely long side columns and then chopping them off to make them equal is neat but it fails if you use anchor links within the content. May I suggest my 3 column layout instead: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/ultimate-3-column-holy-grail-pixels.htm It is a more robust design, has equal height columns, the main column comes first in the source, it works in all the common web browsers and it doesn't use any CSS hacks. Check out this link for browser compatibility screenshots: http://browsershots.org/http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/ultimate-3-column-holy-grail-pixels.htm I hope that helps - Matt =) Matthew James Taylor http://matthewjamestaylor.com >I have a website I'm working on.
