I prefer to save it "complete" in Opera and open it for modifications in a full-blown web editor, but that's another matter. > Delete the top line: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> > When I do this, the right-column completely covers up the > left-column.

Change the conditional comment so it reads... <!--[if lt IE 6]> <style media="screen" type="text/css"> .col1 { width:100%; } </style> <![endif]--> ...or leave it out completely, and IE6 will do fine until the window is made too narrow. That style is needed for quirks mode only, so keep it (with modified version-targeting as seen above) if you want to support older IE/win-versions. You should also change the meta... <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8" /> ...so it reads... <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> ...as what's there now makes no sense. IE/win (any version) doesn't support "application/xhtml+xml" anyway, and all browsers ignore that meta and look at what the page is served as - "text/html". regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
