Thanks Stephen,
I had been using a hack, inserting "style: solid; " into the hr { } but of
course not valid css and
then came across this:
http://www.sovavsiti.cz/css/hr.html
but didn't like the final solution using an image and then found the guts of
the posted rule in
another style sheet of mine and inserted the background-color and there it
was, didn't have the
full range of browsers tho, to test.......so didn't run the full gamut of
addition and subtraction,
lol
Another solution is to add bottom-border to various block level elements but
that can get very
clumsy........
thanks again.......

: Michael,
:
: Opera 7.51 had a 6px hr (I'm guessing that it is applying the color to
: the hr's height and then adding a border of the same color as well,
: 3px height + 3px border = 6px hr). A quick check in Safari shows it
: is doing the same thing. I just set up a quick test and had a play
: around with it and this is what I came up with:

: Seems to appear the same, cross-browser when you set border to 0 and
: just go with the height.
