Been there and I do agree in principle - I like compact code that makes sense. But if it takes me 5 hours of experimenting to get a "CSS Only" layout working in multiple browsers, I can't help but think "why bother". Especially when that same layout takes 5 minutes using tables and most visitors can't tell the difference. No, I won't nest tables 3, 4, 5 or (as with a template one of my clients sent me today) 6 deep with lots of other ancient artifacts in it. The template had no doctype and over 100 errors in HTML4.01 Transitional - an absolute shocker, yet it looked fine in all browsers I have access to (it was even usable in Lynx, which did report bad HTML) Anyway... Still puzzled why the selects in www.betterwebdesign.com.au/request-quote.asp don't work in Netscape 7. -- Bert Doorn, Better Web Design www.betterwebdesign.com.au Fast-loading, user-friendly websites ***************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help *****************************************************
