Well I certainly did jump into the deep end, though I have been
learning for some months now, have done a day course with John Allsop,
and pretty much feel like I know what I'm doing. The problem is I have

Peter... it's like watching Frodo break down with that ring in his

I second Mark's comments, Peter. This list isn't about "full CSS or nothing"
- even though our enthusiasm for full CSS may give this impression. :)
While we are trying to encourage people towards full CSS in the long term,
the main aim is to encourage everyone to move towards building sites with

I honestly think this is an entirely appropriate & practical approach in the

together... If something is just taking too long and you know you can fall

I feel like I'm going to be hunted down by the Inquisition but I just gave up, added two simple two column tables to my code, and got the whole thing working within half an hour.
I'm still going to be using CSS when I can, but when it comes to work it's Transitional all the way for the moment.

Peter,
If I understand you correctly, a quick test shows that all standards
compliant browsers except for MacIE5.2 will flow around and under the
floated item:

This can be fixed by removing the div around the content - is it needed?

There's a thing I don't understand about floats which perhaps someone
can enlighten me on:
I have a div container with a background colour of red.
Inside it is a content div with a bgcolour of green and a subnav div
with a bgcolour of blue.
The subnav div is set to float to the right of the con

This is an interesting proposition. Always thought using Transitional
would ease any pain. Obviously, now that I've personally developed
strength in CSS/XHTML makes sense not to hang on to Transitional.

Peter,
What I have
found, is that by using an XHTML Strict doctype rather than a XHTMLTransitional
doctype, things seem to come together with a lot more consistency across the
different browsers.

Hi Peter
I think there are two things going on here

content is a new thing. Everyone has trouble with it to start off, as is
true for most technologies - I'm a bit perplexed by XSLT and XPath at
the moment but I'm gettin

only a few browsers.For example, I have been contracting for one of

OK folks, here's my take this afternoon, I'll be interested in your
opinions.
I'm a one-man design company, have been for almost ten years. I've been
making sites and learning the latest tools (not only for the web, but
for 3D, print and motion graphics) all that time. So I've course I've

Makes perfect sense (to me atleast).

Peter, don't give up just yet mate.
I keep feeling like the fly with a man's body at the end of The Fly -

Adding:

margin-bottom : 1px;
}

Seems to fix your footer problem (at least in Firebird). NFI why
