I'm getting a weird problem when I try and absolutely position something in a table caption. It all works fine in IE, but in Firefox if I try the page below the caption is only as wide as the first cell in the table. If I remove the display:block; on the caption then the caption is the full width

That might be an issue if you're changing the stylesheet all the time (although even then browsers should still update the cached file if it's changed) but generally people are talking about updating it infrequently and irregularly. In that case it might take a while to filter down to everyone's

If that's what you want then can't you just move the padding to the a rather than the li, it won't actiually make the nav bar go all the way across (you can make it look like it does though), but it will make it get change width when the windows does. Jake Quoting Todd Baker [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

It's tabular data, so you should use a table. It displays reliably, it's semantically correct and if implemented correctly it's usable for screen readers. It's best to use all of the semantic table elements (th, tbody, thead, summary, caption) if you can. Jake Quoting Ryan Sabir [EMAIL

From the way I read it they're both at 32 bit. My guess would be that safari is using ColorSync to match the jpg to what it would like in print, which would be fine if you weren't trying to match it the gif next-door. You might have to use one format or the other (or switch both to png, which is

Well both problems in IE6 are because it's triggering quirks mode and using the broken box model. If you remove ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? from the start of the document it should detect the doc type and switch to strict mode. Of course this won't fix it under IE 5, if you want to fix that
