<<Does anyone actually use Opera? I've tried it in the past, but found that it had too many problems with too many sits (not only ones I built).>>
Compared to IE -- no. Compared to anything else -- yes. <<I'm open to suggestions about how I can fix the problem you saw in Opera, without breaking the site for others or adding tons of javascript. The site used to make extensive use of tables (and at one stage even frames), which I am trying to steer clear of. -- Bert Doorn, Better Web Design www.betterwebdesign.com.au Fast-loading, user-friendly websites>> I believe your Opera problem results from the use of the height attribute. Your "Main" div, set to overflow, actually runs passed the 100% height of the viewport and in Opera7.11 that means the left and right floats end, so the content flows the full width of the viewport. Changing your design to an equal length 3 column design would solve the problem. For an example see: http://www.positioniseverything.net/thr.col.stretch.html Also you have the ironic situation of having xhtml1.1 which requires an xml prolog but since your page is served as text/html the prolog cause IE to pop into quirks modes rather niftily undermining the strictness of xhtml1.1. drew ***************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help *****************************************************
