I noticed one other thing worth mentioning on the charismalab site. Your container div with the background gets cut off at the bottom of the first page length (in Firefox using 1024x768 resolution). I haven't gone through your CSS as I'm supposed to be working right now, but I'm guessing

Yes, I noticed that too and was trying to sort it out earlier today without any success whatsoever. Thanks for the advice! On 9/28/05, Joseph R. B. Taylor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I noticed one other thing worth mentioning on the charismalab site.Your container div with the background gets cut off

Validated the pages. Most were fine, actually, but there was a shocker where I'd not closed a whole load of links and that was the page that was really mis-behaving!! Thanks, again AdamOn 9/26/05, Adam Morris [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks, Christain. I didn't think of doing that. Adam On

Hi Adam On a side note, I like the blue colors but I get confused as a user with your use of orange on charisma throughout the page. I keep thinking it is a link. Your actual links are white, the same color as the text. I find the site difficult to read and explore. I would at

I don't think b/b is valid. Just do another span, with { font-weight:bold; }And yes, the DL is much better. On 9/27/05, Drake, Ted C. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Adam I just sent a message about your linking colors and then looked at your source code. Here's another suggestion I

But doesn't that depend on what you're using the bold tag for? There are times, for instance - when you might want something to appear bold visually, but it wouldn't need to be spoken louder/emphasized for a screen reader, which - if I'm not mistaken, reads strong differently than it would

Oh, it *is* valid. I was mistaken... I'll have to remember that. How do screen readers handle b and i ? Do they really ignore those tags? Just wondering because I know screen readers tend not to follow the rules.

I've read in several places that yes, screen readers ignore b and i . However, as I don't have a screen reader, nor do I know any facilities with one that I could use for testing purposes - I really have absolutely no idea. lol. Christian Montoya wrote: Oh, it *is* valid. I was
