Re: [WSG] Hi all, need some help with a peekaboo bug in IE - SOLVED
G'day Barrie, I think what you need here is called the Holly Hack. It fixes ul, li problems that IE mucks up. CSS for my sites where I use uls include:- /* Fix IE. Hide from IE Mac \*/ * html #navbar ul li { float: left; } * html #navbar ul li a { height: 1%; } /* End */ Reference: http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?page=2&cid=C37E0 Regards, Ric Barrie North wrote: How weird, it was being caused by the styles on the ul in the black main menu box.

Re: [WSG] Semantic Syllabus: Site Critique
The only problem I see in IE6/Win is very minor. The top margin/padding that it has in other browsers doesn't show up in IE6/Win, so the logo butts up against the very top of the page. One other minor thing (in all browsers I tested) is a very noticable flashing on the first time I hover one of the nav links. ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **

[WSG] Semantic Syllabus: Site Critique
OK, these are as ready for eyes other than mine. I am especially interested in two things: 1. general response to the two sites particularly how they fare in the IE family 2. suggestions for readings or websites for HIST 697-History & New Media. It might be useful to have two additional pieces of info: I'm a historian by training but self-taught in web design, and HIST 697 is a required class for doctoral history students who range from the absolutely petrified to those who have built sites with tables. My job is to move them in 14 weeks to standards-based, accessible websites. Both the XHTML and CSS validates. Base site: http://www.archiva.net/ http://www.archiva.net/screen.css HIST 697: http://www.archiva.net/hist697ay06/ http://www.archiva.net/hist697ay06/hist697ay06_screen.css If you have an extra moment, please take a look at HIST 300. I rather like my horse and wonder if it's effective. HIST 300: http://www.archiva.net/hist300ay06/index.html Finally, I thank the folks on the list who have helped me get this far on the semantic syllabus.

Re: [WSG] web developer toolbar for IE!!!!
Olá! I've installed the microsoft web developer toolbar and it seems to be incompatible (surprise!) with the AIS Web Accessibility Toolbar -- it made all the buttons disappear. I've tried to reinstall the AIS toolbar, but it had no effect. I enjoyed a lot the DOM explorer of the microsoft toolbar, but the AIS has a lot of useful functions... It would be perfect to have them both working. Does anyone know how to solve the incompatibility problem? Obrigado!
