The code below kind of works but it doesn't know where to write the
breadcrumbs.
You want to do document.getElementById('content').innerHTML = output +
pageTitle to put them where you want them... but a more relevant
question would be why do you want to create breadcrumbs using
Javascript?
IMO this navigational item should not rely on JS to be available -
your code could easily be replicated server-side.

Re: [WSG] Unwanted gap in IE
Try removing the line breaks and white space around the the img tag. There may be nicer, CSS-based solutions but this often fixes some of these obscure IE anomolies.

[WSG] Using CSS to emulate frames
Hi, I'm currently trying to get a few divs with some css to work like a frameset rows=*,100, a.k.a. a 100px bar at the bottom with [stuff] and a browser-size-sized area above it with [main content]. Simply placing the [stuff] at the bottom and setting [main content] size to 100% introduces some problems (overlapping of text w.o. scrollbars would be the major one) when the window isn't big enough to fit all the text, and setting them statically leads to a very inflexible site design. As it is right now, the divs are position:absolute, and they're (on my screen) filling about half of the browser window vertically, giving me a big white space beneath that I'd like to extend the [main content] div into, while having [stuff] at the bottom. A stripped version can be found at http://blah.towel.nu/ So, is there a way to emulate this dynamic frames-behaviour, or will I have to set it static? ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

Exactly. When an image is inline (which is the default display
property value for images), its vertical-align property has the
default value of baseline, meaning, aligned with the baseline of
the text it is assumed to be inline with. However, the descenders on
letters like g and y need space below the baseline, hence the gap
you were seeing. Setting the image's display property to block
means that the browser no longer has to make allowance for the
possibility of a lower-case g or similar appearing inline with it,
and therefore it no longer leaves space for it.
HTH,
Nick.

As a simple answer no.

I did not mean to make it sound like you were. :D thread doesn't really answer your question anyway, but it does give you some options (and rationale) on how to go about it. Just thought you'd be interested. For sure. I saw it start a while back, but soon got lost due to all the subject changing and such... still tracking-back through it now. Hmm... 'force' is too strong a word. We should never 'force' our visitors to do anything! But *inviting* them to upgrade by serving a plain text site - nothing wrong with that. Absolutely preferable to a broken layout, IMO. Excellent point and I agree. :D I can't wait for browsers like IE5.0 and IE5.2 to die... I mean, they are pretty-much dead already, but not dead enough to make me not care. Oh - and a recent peruse of one of my sites' stats showed a (thankfully singular) visitor using ... wait for it ... Explorer 1.0. I guess there's no helping some people... LOL!!! It has to be a practical joke! Hmmm, actually, that would be interesting April fools day trick... spoof your browser stats - anyone know how to do this? I would love to surf the web and have folks thinking I was using IE 1.0! Lol, what a trip - 1.0... where do you even download that anymore? Can XP run it? Ok, I have had too much coffee. Time to take a break. :) Cheers, Micky *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
