RE: [WSG] Lines on top - anyone see why?
Thanks for the idea, Martin. That did the trick, although not in the #heading selector, but in the dl selector, which is the object that contains all those floated elements. The #heading is only the top component of the floated box. Thanks a lot, it's been niggling away at me for ages, that one.

Re: [WSG] Lines on top - anyone see why?
G'day, it looks fine to me. FF0.8, Win98SE, 1280x1024. Something I found (not related to this problem) is with the vertical menu on the products page. The text needs i little more padding on the left as it's overlapping the grey bullets, no biggy. Site displayed fine apart from that. I haven't tested in IE (I suspect that's were the problems emerge?)

Ive added a specials box to my auslegs site using that cute round-corner technique we read about on this list a few days ago. (Mountaintop Corners : http://www.alistapart.com/articles/mountaintop/) Im really pleased with how it works and how good it looks. Except for one page. Can anyone see why the grey horizontal borders on the news page at http://auslegs.com.au/news/index.cfm are going on top of the specials box instead of underneath or stopping to the left?

Re: [WSG] Lines on top - anyone see why?
Internet Explorer sucks at rendering floats correctly. It looks fine in Mozilla/Firefox. I had the same problem a few weeks back when starting to redesigning my blog and I specified widths in percentages for the floated element and the elements that were to wrap around the floated element and it worked fine in IE and Mozilla/Firefox. See if that helps any. From: Michael Kear [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 2004/05/18 Tue PM 06:02:44 EDT To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WSG] Lines on top - anyone see why?

RE: [WSG] Lines on top - anyone see why?
I should have been a little more specific. Sorry . It looks fine in Firefox to me too. However the client looks at his site in IE6, and that's where the problem manifests itself.

RE: [WSG] Lines on top - anyone see why?
Thanks anyway. I guess no one has any ideas how I can make the lines go underneath the floated box on my page in IE. I don't suppose it's impossible? Surely not. I can't use percentages in the float because it has to be fixed 130px width, because of the graphics creating the round corners. I guess I'll have to tell the client that the design isn't possible and we'll have to change it. Pity. First time I've asked a question here and had no answers except one that I can't use.
