The filter needs haslayout to work. The span is probably inline, you'll have to add zoom:1 or display:inline-block. And in any case, it will act like an inline-block. This may affect the design, although the snippet is too small to say. Ingo ps. wondering what will become my standard reply to this list once haslayout is history in IE 8. -- http://www.satzansatz.de/css.html ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
