Hey all,I am attempting to start using Microformats and as part of this i am starting to use hCard for some of the sites I am building.Please consider the following code.

Maybe ul with spans?div class="vcard" h3 class="fn"My Name/h3 div class="adr"  div class="street-address"123 Fake Street,/div  span class="locality"Melbourne/span, span class="region"Victoria/span, span class="postal-code"3000/span  div class="country-name"Australia/div /div dl  dtPhone :/dtdd(03) 9888 /dd  dtFax :/dtdd(03) 9888 8889/dd  dtEmail :/dtdda href="" title="email me"[EMAIL PROTECTED]/a/dd  /dl/divAlso, should we use address class="vcard" for this?ThanksJames Oppenheimhttp://www.oppenheim.com.au Be one of the first to try  Windows Live Mail.

Well thanks everyone, especially Lachlan. I will have a look at all the links.Cheers.

Windows actually uses Windows-1252 as its  default encoding, which is a superset of ISO-8859-1.   --  Lachlan Hunt  http://lachy.id.au/   *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** Be one of the first to try  Windows Live Mail.

Sure I can! I use Opera - but I don't challenge that
inline-style-comment bug all that often.


PS Thunderbird spellchecks Gunlaug as Onslaught  heheh


Your Thunderbird didn't do too bad, really. Gunlaug means dedicated

[WSG] Site check [Dineen and Westcott] and IE bug

2006-08-24 Thread James Oppenheim

Hey all,

I have just launched a new site; however, there seems to be a bug in IE on 
the PC on the following page.


http://dineenandwestcott.com.au/about.php

The floated content seems to drop under the sub-nav on the left when you 
resize the browser to different resolutions in IE on the PC. This problem 
does not happen in firefox, netscape, mozzila, advent and opera on the PC or 
firefox, safari and IE on the MAC.


This does not happen on any other page.

I have been playing around and when I when I take out the text between these 
two comments the page seems to work as intended:

!--
ERROR START HERE
--

And

!--
ERROR END HERE
--

Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.

Also, while you are looking at the site, any other comments, questions or 
suggestions would be fantastic.



Thanks.

James
