I say to use a DL whenever you want to create a list that has a title.

RE: [WSG] Letterhead/footer using print style?

2004-10-01 Thread MirAGe01



Just code the HTML as normal. If you code 
with semantics in mind there should be no problem. For instance your header 
should be at the top and possibly use a  tag for the first header on 
the page and set h1 as display:none for the screen style.

  Michael:
   
  Simple but not perfect:
   
  if you can live with a 3px margin different in 
  different browsers:
   
  #right { width:197px; /* if I put a unit 
  here such as "px" then the column doesn't line up 
  */ margin-left:400px;}
   
  IE renders a 3px margin on adjacent divs in 
  certain circunstances.
  This will take that out; in other browsers, if 
  you have different backgrounds for each div this solution isn't 
  suitable.
   
  If you can make it a float:
   
  #right { width:200px; /* if I put a unit 
  here such as "px" then the column doesn't line up 
  */ float:right;}
   
  More complex ones need some testing.
   
  They involve getting rid of the IE margin without 
  affecting other browsers, or using negative margins IE only.
   
  You could try taking a look at some good tips

Subject: [WSG] IE & weird display 
problem

I'm 
working on a page that will consist of 2 columns that will sit inside a 
wrapper div container. I set the left column to float left with a width of 
400px. The right column is set with a margin-left of 400px and a width of 
200px. The width of the wrapper container is 600px. The right column is 
getting pushed down in IE6+. If I remove the px from the width of the right 
column so the style reads simply width:200; then the right column lines up 
correctly with the left column. I've never heard of this before and it makes 
no sense to me. You can see my code below with the problem in 
bold.

is all you did is add float:right to the stylesheet rule #right?
