Thanks, Luca You can kill the borders on images using CSS: img { border-width:0 } Even better than using an HR - which is not strictly structural markup - perhaps you can add a bottom border to the DIV or P which precedes it; eg: style media=screen type=text/css p.last { padding-bottom:24px; border-bottom:8px solid black; } /style pLorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.

[css-d] help - CSS styled divider in between items on a page not working properly
Hi all, I need to include a divider in between different articles and I cannot quite working it out. I included this code in my html, after the last paragraph of my articles: div class=divider/div and in the CSS file: .divider { height: 10px; background: url(images/divider.gif) no-repeat;} It seems to work but when I try to validate the page, it gives me an error saying Error: attribute values must be quoted in XML No idea what that means! Anyone knows how I can fix this or if there is a better way to do it?

Re: [css-d] help - CSS styled divider in between items on a page not working properly
in an XML document div class=divider/div should be; div class=divider/div but this isnt a CSS issue. The validator told you the error - Error: attribute values must be quoted in XML. You should listen to it, it's quite smart :) __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
