Hi Bruce,
It's looking good but quite different between FF and IE... 

Try putting a negative top margin on the image with the hand and key... that
should fix that problem for Firefox. But you might need to make it
conditional so that IE 6 won't do it too.  From a design point of view
perhaps a background colour on the div id="maincontent_image" so that you
don't get the green colour below the image and so you create a visual
column??

With your dt... first of all set your margins and padding to 0. That will
give you a clean slate to work from to add your positioning and it *should*
(hopefully!) make it look the same in both IE and FF.

Hope that helps!

Rachel

Subject: [WSG] a few more issues with page layout with definition list

Hello,

thanks for the information about using a definition list to layout
thumbnail images and text. I think this is a great way to do things. I
am still having some layout issues looking at firefox on the PC
though.

take a look at
http://www.wealthdevelopmentmortgage.com/test/test_file_home.htm
and the CSS at http://www.wealthdevelopmentmortgage.com/test/WDM.css

the thumbnail images and the text, aren't quite aligning like I
want.The dt shoul align to the right off the image above the dd list.
and a little for space between the image and text.

another small issue I am seeing is the picture with the hand holding
the key has some unwanted spacing at the top before you get to the
darker green bar. I need to get rid of that spacing and am not sure
where it is coming from.

Any assistance on this is greatly appreciated!!!
