Hi Michael
Thanks for the feedback.
I have used "ems" for all text, except in the
body tag, as I found that when I used it there, it looked great on a
Mac, but on the PC (IE 5 and 6) the fonts were tiny.
Interested to hear your recommendations (eg what is a good
"em" size for the body tag), and why should there be such a
contrast from one platform to another.

Hi Sarah ,
Nice site. Just had a quick look and the only thing I picked was no-text re-sizing in IE6. Have you tried using "ems".

I would appreciate feedback on the following (personal) site (please disregard previous posting):
http://www.bureke.com.au/ (temporary address)
The main CSS page is at:
http://www.bureke.com.au/styles/global.css
The site is valid XHTML 1.0 and CSS.
I have checked on WIN IE 5.0 and 6, Safari 1.2.2 (Mac), Netscape 7.1 (Mac), IE 5.2 (Mac), Opera 7.5 (Mac), Firefox 0.8 (Mac).
A couple of questions:
1. Is there a work around to prevent the left hand navigation from indenting in WIN IE 5.0 (I want to retain the border-bottom, but I think this is why the browser shows the links indented) ? I notice Eric Meyer's example
( http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamatic/vertical06.htm also has the same quirk in IE 5.0).
2. In IE 5.0 the bottom of #content does not continue to the footer. Any ideas?
3. In both IE 5.0 and 6 there seems to be a padding-left problem with the #rightnav - ie too much space to the left. Any ideas?
If someone can also check on WIN IE 5.5 and/or any other WIN browsers ???
Any other suggestions for improvements in layout, style sheet formatting, usability etc, would be gratefully received. I would like the site to also be more accessible - not a great strength of mine, any help here also appreciated.
Thanks,
Sarah
