Hi Folks,

I'm trying to find my way around the iui.css and I'm a little confused.

Essentially what I had hoped to do was something similar to the
index.html in "digg" sample, but also with a column of text aligned at
the right (just to the left of the listArrow).

I tried adding this to the styles:

li .text-right {
        display: block;
        float: right;
        background: none;
}

And changing the first list item like this:

        <li>
            <a class="digg-count">118</a>
            <a href="The_Thermonuclear_Oops_List.html">The
Thermonuclear "Oops" List</a>
            <a class="text-right">ABC</a>
        </li>

However the text ABC is aligned too low.

This gets me closer to what I want:

li .text-right {
        display: block;
        position: absolute;
        top: 7px;
        left: 250px;
        background: none;
        color: white;
        width: 36px;
        margin: 0;
        border: 0;
        padding: 0;
        background-color: black;
        height: 30px;
}

But I am not sure about specifying the width because I want to avoid a
scenario where the text gets "typed over".  You can see what I mean
here:

Is there any way I can prevent this?

Also I'm not sure why any height I specify isn't making any
difference.  Is anyone able to assist me to understand what is going
on here?  I have done some CSS before, but am a bit lost here...

Many thanks,
Andrew.
