Hi,
Semantical question. I have a list of sportscenters I need to display.
I used to do this in a table layout. but how do I do this in
semantically correct CSS/XHTML ?

There's probably no *one* really "correct" way of doing this, but off
the top of my head, two ideas would be:
1) make it an unordered list with addresses, and use CSS to leave enough
padding on the left and stick the image in there as a background
2) use a definition list, with the image as DT a

Here's a question that I haven't seen mentioned very often. probably because form

weaker throw up our arms and scream for our mommies. So, here it is.
We have select boxes that show the entire word on firefox,
I see what you mean. What happens if you set overflow to visible?

While I agree with the idea of clarifying the destination, I disagree with
the logic of your choice here. The pronunciation issues with A are
significant enough to warrant B as the first choice.

Agree, the line breaks in this case can be argued as being part of the

It was my understanding that fieldsets and legends were only to be
used with forms to make them easier to use.
I tried overflow and other things on both the

Nice idea, I had thought of that but forget to implement it, but it
