Still getting the "unknown". I believe it has something to do with your voice-family hack. If you are trying to use that to put force IE to use the standards compliant box model you might be better off using the full xhtml doctype with url and removing the xml prolog. Both the optional xml prolog and the short doctype put IE into quirks mode or legacy mode instead of standards compliance. This appears to be the one you want:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";> See http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-list.html for the full list. FWIW, here's the relevant section that shows "unknown" in IE. I included a bit on both sides so you can find it in your stylesheet. Note that IE breaks out the shorthand when you view it using the IE stylesheet viewer. I know you code doesn't have padding, border and margin broken out like it is below: #top { BORDER-RIGHT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN: 20px 20px 0px; BORDER-LEFT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-TOP: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #d7d9ec 5px solid; HEIGHT: 42px; TEXT-ALIGN: center; voice-family: inherit } UNKNOWN { HEIGHT: 42px } #left { BORDER-RIGHT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; BORDER-TOP: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; MARGIN: 20px; BORDER-LEFT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; WIDTH: 120px; PADDING-TOP: 10px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #d7d9ec 5px solid; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 120px; voice-family: inherit } UNKNOWN { WIDTH: 120px } #middle { BORDER-RIGHT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; BORDER-TOP: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; BACKGROUND: #fff; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; MARGIN: 20px 190px; BORDER-LEFT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-TOP: 10px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #d7d9ec 5px solid; TOP: 120px; TEXT-ALIGN: left } #right { BORDER-RIGHT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; BORDER-TOP: #d7d9ec 5px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; MARGIN: 20px; BORDER-LEFT: #d7d9ec 5px solid; WIDTH: 120px; PADDING-TOP: 10px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #d7d9ec 5px solid; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 120px; TEXT-ALIGN: center; voice-family: inherit } UNKNOWN { WIDTH: 120px } #bannerAdverts { PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; BACKGROUND: #fff; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; MARGIN: 20px auto; WIDTH: 475px; PADDING-TOP: 10px; TEXT-ALIGN: center } Cheryl D.
