Allison, I had a similar issue earlier today and ended up using this instead:
#subsection { position: static; border-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-color: #ccc; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; } And then this where I wanted the rule: <div id="subsection></div> I'm controlling the width with a parent div but you should be able to just add width to the above. Also I'm using the margin info for dealing with text on the same page. You may or may not need that. Best of luck, Daniel --- Daniel E.

It looks fine in IE 6.0/PC. I'm following these instructions: http://www.sovavsiti.cz/css/hr.html And the code is: <div class="AdminTablelessDivider" id="input" name="input"><hr></div> .AdminTablelessDivider hr { color: #CCCCCC; background-color: #CCCCCC; height: 1px; } I can't show the page because it's a web app that requires log in. Any idea what could be wrong? I searched the archives and didn't find anything. Thanks!
