Hi
I am having problem with my horizontal list IE as 'Child A-D li' is showing
at the bottom of 'Daddy li'. It looks fine in Firefox and Opera 7. They are
all floated to the left in a straight line.
ul
liDaddy raquo;/li
ul
lia href=#Child A/anbsp; |/li
lia href=# Child
Hard to tell exactly without seeing full context (a link is better than
a code extract), but why not do this and avoid the nested list:
ul
liDaddy raquo;/li
li/li
lia href=#Child A/anbsp; |/li
lia href=# Child B/anbsp; |/li
lia href=# Child C/anbsp; |/li
lia href=# Child D/anbsp; |/li
/ul

Here is the demo link:

IE 5-6 PC is not showing it the way I want :P
why not do this and avoid the nested list
If I do not use nested list, the document structure would be like:
* Daddy
* Child A
* Child B
* Child C
* Child

To correctly nest one list within another, open the new list before
closing it's parent li
example:

liParent

Hi Jaime,

Opera 7 refuses to make one particular link clickable:

The navigation Finishing is not clickable in
Opera 7:

I guess that maybe the logo span is the culprit:

I fixed the problem :) I hope
For some reason, a float: right in Opera
makes it think that the height is truly 100% so it covers the link and make it
non-clickable.
I fixed it by changing float right to
margin left:
#logo {width: 130px; height: 61px; position:
relative;

Well, seems we got the thread going at least.
Section 508 is a lame attempt to meet accessibility needs. If you look at

I guess Im learning something about

it looks frankly .. old fashioned in web terms. Meaning its
looking S 2001 now. I have a friend in the games business, and I looked
at his site yesterday and it looked very 1990s to me.
In contrast, I've noticed that images called by css files (as div
backgrounds) *all* download in IE and Safari on Mac (not sure about
IEWin)
That's interesting.
My research found that only IE on Mac has this problem, that is, it
downloads and caches all the images referenced in a stylesheet,
