drew,
I am starting to understand classes so this makes sense to me. In
fact I am using it for another Opera problem, border colour round
tables. I am in a hurry now to finish what has been a very long job
(the pages and site re-organistation are the least part of that, so
you can imagine what the content creation has been like for me!!).
But the next big site change is going to be as up to date as possible.
The hr point is interesting. The various changes in css and html
are no doubt necessary and sensible, but it seems to increase the gap
in getting pages that can be compliant with all browsers and their
different releases. I hear you cry: 'It ainn't going to get
better!'.
