Hi Marcus, all, My OOo website development materials are sitting on an external HDD waiting for me to assemble my new computer, so I can't make any changes myself - could you please do this for me? Below is a solution that should fix most of the issues.
Within each button, the HTML structure is currently like this: <div class="button ..." id="..." onclick="..."> <h2><a href="....">....</h2> <p>...</a></p> </div> The <a> tag is incorrectly nested; it opens within the <h2> and closes within the <p>. When I put the design together, there were 2 links, one within the <h2> tag, and one within the <p> tag. This might appear to be unnecessary duplication, but the requirements of well-formed (X)HTML demand it. Someone probably made this change as an optimisation, but it produces bad HTML which, surprisingly, IE picks up on and Firefox doesn't. The solution is to have two identical <a> (and accompanying </a> tags) within the <h2> and <p> elements. The structure should look like: <div class="button ..." id="..." onclick="..."> <h2><a href="....">....</a></h2> <p><a href="...">...</a></p> </div> That will fix the biggest eyesores and probably the flickering as well. Let's take care of that first and then see what's left. I'm using IE 8 to test this (no access to IE7 at the moment) so results may vary. Regards, Ivan.
