Hi all
The annual review of the New Zealand Government Web Standards is now underway. We are very keen to get your comments and advice, which we'll feed directly into the review process. Let us know what's worked for you and what's caused problems. Are there standards you've struggled with, either in their wording or their practical implementation? Which would you ditch and why? Which would you keep? Are some overly prescriptive, or too vague? If you're not in NZ, we're still very keen to get your thoughts and feedback. The process is that we (the Web Standards Working Group) collate feedback on the standards via the wiki and give it high priority while considering each standard. So it's crucial we get a good amount of feedback from users. You do this by using the link below to go to the standard(s) on which you want to leave feedback, and click the "comment" tab. http://webstandards.govt.nz/index.php/All_Standards <BLOCKED::http://webstandards.govt.nz/index.php/All_Standards> You'll need to be registered, so if you haven't already, please send a request to [EMAIL PROTECTED] <BLOCKED::mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cheers Anthony -- Anthony Hawkins Business Analyst State Services Commission DDI: +64 4 495 6718 Fax: +64 4 495 6669 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ssc.govt.nz <http://www.ssc.govt.nz/> | www.e.govt.nz <http://www.e.govt.nz/> | newzealand.govt.nz <http://newzealand.govt.nz/> New Zealand's State Services Commission: Leading the state sector to world class performance ........................................................................ ...................................................................

If you look at the green area in Firefox and IE you will notice a small gap at the right of the green area in IE. If you try to resize the browser by dragging it, you will notice the gap keeps closing then appearing. It's to do with the odd and even number of pixels on the window size when you have a centred background. Anyway, here is the test URL, anyone got an idea of how to solve this without an extra DIV?! http://paulcollinslondon.com/test/ Cheers Paul 2008/5/15 Paul Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Thanks for your reply Adam. > > I can't really put what's I have now due to copyright restrictions, or > I would have.
