I thinking more in the lines of how Georg handles IE6. <http://www.gunlaug.no/contents/wd_additions_50.html> A large segment of coded pages across the web can render the same in a compliant browser or IE6-. Anyway, I find (with my code) that what usually bugs IE6- out also has the same problems in IE7 and it really has more to do with poor or incorrect support for CSS2.1. A layout such as this is a no go in IE7-. <http://css-class.com/articles/explorer/floats/floatandcleartest1.htm> Progressive Enhancement or Graceful Degradation has never really taken off due to the presence of IE6 and IE7. I have only really archived Progressive Enhancement or Graceful Degradation with different versions of non IE browsers. I guess it will be different with IE8 and IE9. For an extreme case of wanting users to use IE8 or other good browsers is this family tree done with ordered list and display:table. <http://css-class.com/test/demos/genealogy/generations1.htm> This is to replace this method using Excel spreadsheet which does not work in non IE browsers (the hyperlinks don't work for starters). BTW, view the source. <http://contueor.com/fam_trees/amos.htm> To save me duplication, I would really appreciate users to be using IE8 so I can code it with a text editor and generate the layout with CSS. -- Alan http://css-class.com/ Armies Cannot Stop An Idea Whose Time Has Come. - Victor Hugo ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] 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/
