Ok... I have a lot on the to do list already. I'm on my way to significantly change the css. In the meanwhile, I'm afraid the design given to me to reproduce, will not allow 0.85em instead of 0.75em, for example, simple because the text will not fit on the boxes. In order to allow something like

Re: [css-d] font-size smaller on IE 8 [error correction]

With a default browser install - no settings altered - which the vast majority of users will be using, that size is very small and a large majority of users don't know they CAN do something about the size of text they are seeing. I reserve that size for disclaimers and copyright lines, and even the

[css-d] IE6, absolute positioning, percentage heights

I'm trying to nest an absolutely positioned DIV inside of a relatively positioned DIV and give that nested DIV a percentage height. This works fine in all browsers (including IE7 and 8) but IE6 refused to give the nested DIV the height I specify. I've tried giving it has layout to no avail. Googl

[css-d] IE6 vertical spacing issue on LI elements (imagine that)

Hi all, I'm scratching my head trying to figure out how to resolve a vertical spacing issue on IE6. (Yes, that old beast.) Here is the site: http://preview.floydcompanyinc.com The left-hand navigation bar, and overall site structure, is behaving as desired in IE7, IE8, FF3.5, and Safari 4. In I

Thank you David! I added a conditional "IE less than 7" style sheet with... * html #navbar ul li { height: 1%; } ... and that threw the "has-layout" trigger you suggested, and as was indicated by the article link that you provided. Best, Rob Rob Emenecker

[css-d] Header and footer height questions

Hi All, How come if I don't specify a height for my footer, as opposed to specifying a height to 1%, then the top of it does NOT stay flush against my sideBar or content div -- depending on whichever has the larger height? With no height set there is a gap above the footer. How come if I don't
