Hi David/Georg, Ik looks like both M$ browsers have the same problem. Only IE6 crashes on it. IE7 acts weird with the left column. I will try to focus on the ie specific stylesheet with the width:expression . thingies. to solve it. I have spent way to much time on it until know, but I am not ready to give up. I can definitely use some advise here. gRTz ben -- netcreators :: creation and innovation www.netcreators.com - www.typo3.nl Interesse in werken bij Netcreators? http://www.netcreators.com/bedrijf/vacatures/ *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

More case-specific information, please. - Which layout are you experiencing which problems with (links) - Which stylesheets are involved (links) - What's happening in which browser(s). - What's supposed to happen - your intentions. At the moment I'm just confused and have no idea what to look for, where. (Happens at times when threads go back and forth for a while and I'm busy doing my own things.)

Re: [WSG] width calculation linux / windows
ben van 't ende [netcreators] wrote: Hey List, I am stuck with a special problem (aren't all problems :-) ). Anyway I have a centered 3col layout with max-width and min-width (resizes nicely to fit 800x600) and left and right col fixed width. I float the columns left,left,right to position the stuff. Needless to say the center column is the one that resizes (width: 100%). Now on windows ie's and opera everything is ok. On Linux latest Firefox is ok, but Opera, Konqueror on Linux sends my right column to the bottom next to my center column. I found out what causes this behaviour, but I cannot seem to fix it. My center column has border-left end border right 1px solid color to distinguish between the columns. When I drop the borders all is well AFAICS in all browsers. I can see that in the two Linux browsers mentioned before the width of the center column is 2px more than in other browsers. This means to me the width is calculated differently here. I tried to move the border declarations to another position in the stylesheets to maybe get a different order in rendering so the calculation of the width of the center column might change. Alas this does not help. Can someone shed light on why this is so on the two Linux browsers and how I can solve this? My example lives here: http://gbo.intermax.nl. Technically this design was very hard to achieve as it is. I have just done a revamp of some webpaged and came across the same problem with the third column - except in my case it was on IE on windows (had to change max-width to width). I use ICEweazel on linux which is much the same as firefox. You might like to test following urls and check out their style sheets note it is in XHTML the second HTML4.01 http://www.ramin.com.au/travel-guide http://www.ramin.com.au/linux/ If the first one works for you, then drop width and make float none on center panel.
