Alan. As there are a few issues here and interaction will be improved (IMO) I am replying to your message, by interspersing my replies within yours.

Is this navigation within frames? No, it's apparent on any button that's clicked. They all behave in the same way. > Remove the frames as it make it near impossible for anyone to help. The frames will be removed, but the site is presented 'as-is' to allow you guys to see the problem, not for you to attempt to retrieve code from it. That's why I posted the relevant code in my message. > OK, where do you mention that .oneline and .twolines is part of the > navigation. Some on this list are good detectives since.

It's mentioned in the line "I've included the appropriate part of the stylesheet and the HTML below, to save you wading through the dreaded frames maze. At present my text is centered by [ .oneline a ] and [ .twolines a ] (below).", which you've edited out. :-) > > I've probably missed something obvious!! > Yes.

None of today's reasonably up-to-date browsers has a problem with the site as it is/was. M$ "proprietary code" is here to stay and the greater majority of browser public are using it, unfortunately for us, especially in the case of browsers below IE7, which itself is far from perfect. Not to labor a point, as we're getting off topic, but the frames will be removed soon and the problem will cease to exist. :-) > So you have to make it easy. :-) > Sometimes it is easier just to have un-style text to begin with. The only way I could make it any easier (as you say) is to remove the frames, but really this is totally unnecessary. I've already posted the relevant code in my message, for inspection. There's nothing 'hidden' on the live site that would affect it. I dumped the site to a test area, merely as an illustration for this forum, so that the effects can be seen. Hell, being a USA originated forum, I even spelled my message in 'American' and ignored the protests of my UK spell-checker. <grin> ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
