Netscape 6/7 should handle a CSS2 layout okay if it is done properly. NN4 will display everything in line from my experiences. I believe I have seen 'Netscape 4' friendly layouts before, but I don't know where. In terms of both of your sites, there is something wrong with the CSS that it does not show at least close in NN6/7.
Check out the glish site Isaac mentioned earlier and there are a few other good ones as well. There are examples of layouts out there that work, they can just be a pain to implement. -- Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Robert Polickoski [mailto:rpolickoski@;isrd.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 3:08 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: OT: CSS2 and NetScape Isaac, Yes, I am idealistic and trying to truly separate content from format (maybe I should just use XML LOL). The reason that I suggest that NS isn't implementing position is that it is treating everything as an in-line element. Thank you for the reference and your response. Robert J.
