Ray, The *html hack is known to cause problems with IE7. Try putting IE6 and below specific css in a conditional comment. You could try testing in IE7 with the hack removed. Hi Rob, Making the *html hack a conditional lte IE6 did the trick for IE7. I did as you suggested and first tested without the hack..voia la! amazing. Thanks for your input and the suggestions by all. @Michael, I'm looking at the layout gala styles right now...not as well documented in the code, so I'm hacking at it a bit, but it's as elegant as my current solution (was before I started messing G).

I've probably not 'gotten' something easy here...and would appreciate any guidance offered. http://devel.legionpost130.org/ Appears as expected in WinFF 1.x and 2.x, Safari, etc. No joy in WinIE7. Haven't checked in the dreaded IE6 yet.

Re: [css-d] alignment position - liquid layout issues
I am sure that your CSS layout is overall perfectly up to the task, and could be made to work. But I am just thinking that others have cracked this nut with more easily used layouts. Like take a look at this one: http://blog.html.it/layoutgala/LayoutGala13.html Within a few minutes I think you could switch over to this and your problems would, i hope!, be solved.

Hi Michael, et al, and thanks for the link. Very nice layout indeed. Mine is based (very strongly) on the 'holy grail' of liquid layouts, from ALA [1]. We're early enough in the dev cycle to switch layouts, but as I consider each challenge a learning experience, I'd love to know what triggered IE7's failure to display the left column. Switching may be the way to go here...I'm not ruling it out, but I would definitely appreciate anyone more experienced in CSS to point me in the direction I need to go to determine what's missing for IE7 to render that column. I'll simplify the page and try the layout provided, just to see. Thanks.

Re: [css-d] alignment position - liquid layout issues
I completely understand the challenge aspect of this! but suggested this alternative because it seemed to me that you'd been struggling for a very long time and might by now be at your wit's end. There are other fairly pricey CSS layout products out there, as you know, but the link I sent you seems a great free alternative. -- E.

[css-d] alignment position - liquid layout issues
Hi all, I'm implementing a layout based (Strongly) on the holy grail liquid layout[1]. Site: http://devel.legionpost130.org/ CSS: http://devel.legionpost130.org/styles/post130.css (contains some unneeded redundancies, I'm sure) Layout issue1: The center column text is aligned to the same height as the topmost nav item in the left column. The desired effect is to have the text in the center column line up with the top of the nav div itself. Layout issue2: IE, at least WinIE7, does not display the nav at all. Ideas, suggestions and general comments are more than welcome. Thanks in advance for any offered advice.
