Re: [WSG] Unwanted gap in IE

2006-08-21 Thread Ben Lobo

Try removing the line breaks and white space around the the  tag.
There may be nicer, CSS-based solutions but this often fixes some of
these obscure IE anomolies.

Hi Guys. Simple problem and I'm sure there's a simple answer but I haven't
the foggiest what it is.

In IE, there is a space underneath the photograph (ugly); in FF, there isn't
(nice). How to get rid??

Thanks in advance

Javascript is great for immediate user interaction, but for page
modification like this it seems slow, redundant, and inefficient.  If
we're generating our pages server-side to begin with, why download an
incomplete markup to the client and then complete the markup with
javascript?  It makes sense when javascript executes differently
based on user actions and on conditions found only after download,
but I don't see that here.



I agree that, if possible, this type of thing is probably better done
on the server side. But regardless of whether it's done server or
client side, I think branding can be quite difficult to solve with CSS
& HTML alone, mainly because the required fonts often aren't
available.

Perhaps sIFR (Scalable Inman Flash Replacement) would be a viable
alternative (http://wiki.novemberborn.net/sifr/)?
