Hi Mark,
As you've seen, the css list is remarkable for its generosity.
Didn't mean to be mean. Sorry.

Bill,
Thanks for the reply. Your right. It is off topic on this list. I
posted this question earlier this evening on the CSS list. I was
anxious and hoped to get a response so I could get this done. And I
haven't rec'd a response yet from that list because I switched to
digest. So sorry if it was an irritation. It was due to my
impatience and wanting to get on with the project.
I did join that list, when you suggested it. I have hundreds of
entries in my email about CSS and read them frequently. They have
solved a lot of problems, So I thank you for that suggestion months
ago, as you say. This one just stumped me. And I was anxious. I
suppose you have experienced that too at one point or another.
Anyway, I have been continuing to hack away, and may have found
something that works. In fact it does. I If I can't figure it out, I
will post again to the CSS List.
Take Care,
Mark
PS. FYI, though not nearly as accomplished as yourself and others on
this or any list, rest assured, that before I "punt" to anyone, I
spend a fair share of time, trying to get it done on my own. I have
been using Witango since the beginning. Was one of the beta testers.
How many years is that? I have hundreds of taf's to my credit, and
written very complex business systems. Some might have written them
more elegantly, to be sure. But several businesses doing millions of
dollars of business have depended for years on what I wrote, with
the help of several lists. I might add, all that time, I have
attempted to respect others and done my part to ask only after
trying myself. Is that fair? I am human though.

This is really off topic, and back in November I suggested you join
the css-discuss list (http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d
) I haven't seen you post there, yet. When you do, please
provide a link to a page that illustrates the problem, so people
can actually see tit and inspect the CSS.
Please validate your HTML and CSS before posting.
And yes, there is a "clear" style.

Hi,
I have worked a while today trying to solve a problem.
I have some CSS, where you can expend detail below a line.
Triangle normal - description here
Triangle normal - description here
Triangle normal - description here
Triangle normal - description here
You hit the triangle and the detail shows up below
Triange down - Description
Detail detail detail detail
detail detail detail detail
Triangle normal - description here
Triangle normal - description here
Triangle normal - description here
The problem I am having is that when I open the detail, instead of
the triangles below the line lining up, as I show here:
1-Triange down - Description
Detail detail detail detail
detail detail detail detail
2-Triangle normal - description here
3-Triangle normal - description here
4-Triangle normal - description here
They look like this
1- Triange down - Description
Detail detail detail detail
detail detail detail detail 2-Triangle normal - description
here
3-Triangle
normal - description here
4-Triangle
normal - description here
Here is the code:
<ul class="open">
<li id="item1"><a onclick="toggle('item1');"><img

</ul>
</li>
</ul>
I have read and read online and can't find WHY I am having the
behavior I am. So it's like there is something about Blocks that
I don't understand.
I am guessing it is something easy,
Is there some kind of "clear" command I am supposed to use?
thanks for the help
