Hi Holly,

Thank you for taking the time. I've implemented those suggestions and am waiting on a couple of friends with XP machines to tell me if IE gets it right.

cheers,

Saul

the center content area is not flowing properly in IE Windows
(at least from the screen shots some friends have sent me). It appears
to bump down to below the left column content.

Hi Saul,

A couple of changes and this will probably work for IE (except the li:hover).

First, you have a selector that I'm pretty sure is written incorrectly for what you want. -

#sidebarL #img {
        margin-left: -5px;
        margin-right: -5px;
}

I couldn't find any elements with an ID of img (#img) in your #sidebarL element, so I'm thinking what you really wanted was -

#sidebarL img {...}

With that change, you also will need to get rid of the margin-left property -

#sidebarL img {margin-right: -5px;}

Then you'll need a new selector to solve IE's problem with dropping the content -

#content div img {margin: 0 -3px;}

Finally, at least finally with the browsers I looked at, my (old) Opera doesn't like the construction of the very first elements in #sidebarL. If you'll put a break element *after* the non-breaking space you have between the two images, the appearance in Opera will improve significantly.

<div id="sidebarL">
< a href="#" >< img [snip]/ >< /a >&nb sp;< br / >< img {snip]/ >
[and the rest of the code - extra spaces are added on purpose so that MY email program doesn't attempt to render the HTML]

hth,

~holly
