Will everyone please respond to this email, where I've added a subject, instead of Simon's original email? Please remember that you can change the subject line of any thread as necessary. If someone forgets to add a subject, please add your own when replying that accurately describes the thread as you see it. It will make it easier for people to browse and search the archives, as well as attract the right attention to the thread in the first place. When you do reply to this email, cut out my text, of course, as well as anything else that's not relevant to your reply. :-) Thanks, Zoe Gillenwater css-d list moderator ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
