Re: [WSG] IE7 bug?
Adding #content { display: inline-block; } to your IE stylesheet should sort it out in IE7. Not sure I understand the IE6 question.

Re: [WSG] IE7 bug?
Hi Rachel, Everything looks a-ok in Safari Flock. I dont know what to suggest, maybe instead of a float:left, use a position:absolute and then play around with margins?? Jus a thought, I may be completely way off the mark. IE should be placed in a lead container and thrown into the ocean! Does your CSS editor have an option to see what browsers are going to display badly so you dont need to load it up to check? I use Style Master on my Mac, and at the bottom of the screen it tells you whats not going to work, there is always a big red cross next to IE5 though!

Keep them floating, and add 'position: relative'. * html #content div {float: left; position: relative;} ...works fine in IE6. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
