Did you check www.enpresiv.com using my UL implementation? No good for ya?In a couple of respects - it doesn't cut it for what I'm trying to do. Sorry I should have provided a bit more back ground.I'm working on an intranet & I want all my view pages and add/edit forms to be presented as two column layouts (captions on the left & values on the right). I've got to account for pretty much any combination of values in both the left & right columns. Basically I want it to behave like a two column table with vertical-align top on each cell, however I think that dl/dt/dd is probably a better way to code this because you don't have to worry about rows and its more semantically correct (IMHO). You're page presents correctly with the existing content, but its not flexible in that if you have long values in the left column things start to go wrong. For example if you replace <span class="addressTitle">address</span> with <span class="addressTitle">this here is the address of the office</span> you get text overlapping :( Also its not an "anything but a table" situation, its more just that I'd ideally like to use a definition list. I'm pretty sure I could trick a definition list to behave like your setup but I'd still have the problem I mentioned before. I appreciate the suggestion, but I don't think its going to work for me this time.
