You can easily make your data table sortable, generate charts, make it super
accessible and more. You can't do the same with positioned divs.

OK, so I'm working on a project in which the developers are laying out tabular
data using divs.
The site is using the 960 CSS grid system so making the 'tables' work just
means applying the appropriate class to align each div/table cell to the grid.

There's two other people in my team who would be interested as well.

Hi,
For a while now, I've been operating on the principle Code for
Firefox, hack for IE.
That is, writing CSS for the most standards-compliant browser, and
then making adjustments for non-standard behaviour.
I said this in a meeting last week to argue a point and my boss said
who says?.
I was just wondering what everyone's opinion of font resizing using stylesheet
swapping?
I'm wondering if it's still useful given that it's useless to people using
screen readers, people with vision impairment will probably be more likely to
us a screen magnifier, and others can use their
The Herald (that's the right site Andreas) only supplies font resizing on some
pages. It appears to be just its news stories and it doesn't make much
difference.
Here's the context for my question. I'm reworking a design that had used pixels
for fonts and then supplied three larger

I've been using DW8 (demo) since Friday and it's really very good.
I'm using it mainly in code view, but its design view does an excellent
view of rendering CSS layouts, a major improvement over MX 2004. It
means that I'm not having to preview in a browser as much.
While I almost never use it

My very sincerest apologies, John.
I made one small change to the HTML before I started fiddling with the CSS

I applied the active class to the list item, rather than the a link:

li class=activea href=./index.htmlhome/a/li

The argument I was swayed by was that XHTML was more future-proof, since in
the future everyone will use XML (and drive atomic cars). This means that
the designer coming after me won't have to do as much work to do on the next
redesign (which is especially good if I'm the next designer).

John,
1. You've got your selectors a bit mixed up, they should be:
#tabmenu .active a { ... } and
#tabmenu .active a:link { ... } etc
instead of
#tabmenu a.active { ... } and
#tabmenu a.active:link { ... } etc
Then, the border and background for #tabmenu a.active:link is overriding the

I've been following Owen Briggs' [www.thenoodleincident.com] method. Owen
did extensive testing to come up with setting the body declaration to 76%
(not 75% or lower) and setting other font sizes using ems.
It's worked pretty well for me.
If nothing else, Owen's work is one of the most impressive
on--IE6/Win, Safari 1.0.3, IE5.2/Mac, Opera 7.5(Win and
Mac), Firefox 0.9.3 (Win and Mac) and Camino 0.8 -- and it seems to work,
but then, so does yours:)
OK so that's probably not that helpful. I'll go away now.
