Re: [css-d] [OT] Need Screenshot Please
Here are some other options: * PC hardware is cheap. You may already have an older PC sitting around. Install a friendly Linux distribution like Kubuntu on it and you have a PC handy for testing sites. You can even use it to run your own personal webserver, useful perhaps for testing. * Use the free VMWare player to run a Linux image on your existing Windows PC. There are a number of free Linux VMWare images available, including official ones of Ubuntu, OpenSUSE 10.2, etc. * Boot your regular PC using one of the many Live Linux CDs around (I like Sidux, but every Linux distro has a live CD version) and look at your site using Konqueror. You don't have to pay big bucks and put up with slow performance to test websites under Linux browsers like Konqueror.

Lots of links in Google about how to do it: http://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+install+multiple+versions+of+IE+on +Windows Only caveat I'm aware of is that any IE installed in such a fashion appears as the highest installed version (IE7, in your case) when evaluating MS conditional comments. Another option is to use VMWare or some other virtual PC technology to install and run a virtual Windows PC on your existing one, and install the older IE version on it. You can have a separate virtual machine for each different browser version. Each browser set up this way responds to IE conditional comments as its own version. Want an older version of a browser?

Suggest instead that you get them away from designing in Photoshop - because Photoshop is not dynamic about its presentation but is static - the opposite of the web. I'd set the box height in ems, because then you've got a measure that's connected with the font size used. You can set your line height indepently of units, so you can calculate a box height to hold X number of lines - I'd think that if you're using 1em font size and a line height of 1.4, a box to hold 10 lines of text would be 10x1.4 = 14 ems. I've not tested this, but I think that would make the 10th line of text be right at the bottom of the box, not partially cut off by falling outside the fixed height of the box. Plus the box height would still be usable for visitors who've increased or decreased their font size (another feature of the web that makes Photoshop a poor design choice).

My guess is that IE6 has a different idea about just what it is
positioning the relative to?

I suppose if we knew XSLT, we could have the CMS automatically adjust the markup to add the parts to it.

Re: [css-d] How to align list numbers?
Thanks, Josh (and Jukka and Phillipe).
I tried the list-style-position: inside option. When text wraps in the
list item, it wraps back to the start of the item number. That wouldn't
be acceptable here.
Using generated content is out because our corporate standard web
browser is IE6. IE7 and later aren't even on the testing horizon, and
only a few people get special permission to use Firefox or Opera (for
the purposes of testing our public sites).
Jukka, interesting that you mention using table markup instead. That's
what our current enterprise content management (ECM) system uses. Its
content editing tool has outline buttons that transparently do the heavy
lifting of creating/destroying table elements, calculating outline
numbers, etc. The content editing tool of our soon-to-come new ECM uses
standard list markup instead - so working with
outlines-marked-up-as-tables will be a tedious manual process. (And,
unfortunately, when our content converted over into the new system, the
outlines came across as tables.)
We have hundreds of pages with the outline-tables problem, so I guess
we're just going to have to put up with them and over time get rid of
the outline-tables.

i suggested this to david offlist, but since it seems like a simple
answer to a simple question, i'm reposting to the list, for the record.
ul { list-style-position: inside }
as described here:
