I have tried everything - it just won't work in IE (works fine in Firefox

Any suggestions as to how I could fix this one?

What I normally do when I want to use min-height is use a css hack to set a
height for IE only. IE will treat the height property in the same way as
min-height was meant to work. But you have to hide the set height from the
other browsers that support min-height.

ently the way it looks on Firefox is that when the user increases
the browser font-size the text inside the dropdown increases, but not

Personally I set a 100% font-size for the body to start off with and then
set individual % for the different tags and classes.
The problem you describe sounds like something I struggled with at the
beginning as well: I presume what is happening is that you are inheriting
sizes between nested tags,

I think it is a very dangerous decision to make! IE is still by far the most
common browser and you might be right that clients could get a bit nervous
when they see you are anti-IE. It took me such a long time to ditch NN 4,
but now that I have done it it just feels great! Dropping IE will take a

should give you the result you want, without using negative numbers.

I would like to share an interesting experience I had during accessibility
testing of a website, in regards to this topic:
We were testing a blind participant using JAWS. The website we tested opened

Have a look at Disability Online (http://www.disability.vic.gov.au) - they
solve it quite nicely by opening external links in new windows, yet
providing little icons which inform the user that the link will open new
windows.

You have to change it to
background-image: url(../images/header.jpg);
and potentially add background-position (if required)

I think if you don't solely rely on the automated systems, they can be quite
helpful.

Hi guys,
I have got a website (www.jet.org.au) that passes Bobby almost with AAA,
with the exception of the default place holders. The reason I do not want to
put them into the site is because every page has got a login form at the
top. With the default place-holders, the login form would look som
