[css-d] [Fwd: Re: [#24488699] Anchor offset ?]
Sorry to bother the list ... but I received this message below in response to my 3:20 PM reply to a list email about the Anchor Offset topic. I sent my reply ONLY to the list, so apparently someone's address (@midphase.com) on the list isn't supposed to be on the list, which doesn't seem to be something I can do anything about ... I guess if you contact supp...@midphase.com with their ticket number below, they can tell you who it might be. Again, sorry for the interruption, you may now return to your regularly scheduled interruption. Original Message Subject: Re: [#24488699] [css-d] Anchor offset ?

I can't seem to figure out how to leave out any images in a pseudo element selector for off-site links.

[css-d] Help with center container

In essence three columns/boxes where center div expands and moves images. http://www.equestrian-jewelry.com/horse_and%20equine_jewelry_for_equestrians.htm Page is valid css and validates html 4.01 strict. I want to rebuid site by using css to replace gallery container as needed. Trying also to put div on right which I will use for clearances or such. Ultimately will use the more info link in gallery container as a paypal type link. Main problem -Cross browser div with images buries under left nav menu and right div. I have tried and retried for many hours various position, float margins etc. Also the popup should be over top of the right column Page shows what I want in Firefox (with the exception of the gallerycontainer getting lost under the menu, almost in IE6. In Opera 9 complete gallery div is active. Google Chrome it is close. I realize many people on this list are really up to date but my customer base is often remote and slower to update computers etc so IE6 is still important to me.
