RE: [WSG] Disappearing element in IE

Hi, Given that you are using absolute positioning for #bottom_nav, I don't quite get why your using display:inline in the CSS after it. What happens if you remove it from #bottom_nav? As in, #bottom_nav { text-align: right; position: absolute; right: 9px;

Hi, Came across this link: http://www.enablepdf.com/ which might also be useful in making accessible PDF documents. I haven't looked into costs etc, just happened across the site while browsing through The Register. Kind regards, Elaine http://www.webdandy.co.uk http://www.webdandy-access.com

[WSG] Accessible, complex forms

I have a dilemma that I hope someone can advise me on. A client wants a fairly complex form that will have input fields in the middle of a line of text (think "adlibs"), and then a select box at the end of the line. For example: [th] Alert ... [th] Status or delivery choice [td] Balance is within
