Nope, I removed that width control from the css but still IE is refusing
to show it correctly, I did use FireBug in FireFox to check this out and
FireBug seems to agree that it's ok!
Is this an IE problem, like the Microsoft way to be a pain, or am I
missing something!?
BTW, Alan when I send mail to you, I get it bounced back with some
random error!
