Indeed it is much improved. I'm not noticing any gaps in ff2 or safari2 on my mac. A couple of minor items. First, your document is xhtml 1.0 strict, but your server is serving it as text/html, which is incorrect. I'd suggest a document type of html 4.01 strict or xhtml 1.0 transitional instead. Second, I still prefer avoiding text as images unless you need something highly stylized. That way people with low vision can navigate the site more easily. Third, the html could use a bit more structure. Try viewing the site with css turned off to see what I mean. For example, I usually mark menus up as unordered lists. There's nothing authoritative about that, it just makes sense to me, and communicates better to users without css than a series of anchors that happen to be next to each other in the source. Give yourself a pat on the back. You've made a lot of progress. -- Roger Roelofs "Remember, if you’re headed in the wrong direction, God allows U-turns!" ~Allison Gappa Bottke ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- 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/
