RE: [WSG] IE Issue: focus not set on image buttons within a floated div
I don't know if it's actually related or not, but we had to change our pages to work on IE7. See for example http://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/ The stuff floated to the right (ie. that column) was only partially visible and you couldn't click inside the search field or on any link. The solution was to simply remove the font-style: italics CSS applied to the word 'Internationalization'. I have no idea how that helped, but that's the story for what it's worth.

My client has made an issue of the fact that a user cannot see a visual indicator of focus when the user has tabbed to either of the buttons.

Re: [WSG] IE Issue: focus not set on image buttons within a floated div
Is it not due to IE not using :focus like other browsers? To get it to accept :focus on buttons, you'd need to use javascript. A bit hard to tell though without seeing any code or a link.

Does the focus appear when the div is not floated? 2. Are you using input or button? As mentioned before, :focus doesn't work in IE 6 and below, but I'm not sure if that is actually your problem. -- -- Christian Montoya christianmontoya.com ... portfolio.christianmontoya.com *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
