Same here: no excuse.
ah, that is better; now the page displays as expected in my Gecko
nightly build, which has a stricter error parser.
Dunno what to suggest about iExploder 6. Thing doesn't know what a
containing block is, and compute the 80% width based on the closest
haslayout container.
Actually, scrap that, you have a little issue with this:
* html #maincontainer * { position: relative; zoom:1; }
/* __everything__ has pos. relative */
remove that block and only apply 'zoom' to specific elements.

Re: [css-d] Help with Spry drop down menu in IE 7
Hi Steven, I'm creating a Spry vertical drop down menu in Dreamweaver. It works fine in Firefox, but takes on a different form in IE 7. The submenus drop horizontally. More importantly, when the web page font size is increased, a white text box is shown behind the submenu. The more I increase the front size of the web page, the more pronounced this white text box becomes. http://www.asyousow.org/sustainability/test.shtml. This white text box behind the submenu disappears in IE 8, but the submenus still drop horizontally. Any words of wisdom? Unless you understand the underlying CSS and JS used to create the menu and can ask your question in those terms, you're probably better off using the Spry Forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/labs/spry Hope this helps, Randy Edmunds __ 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/

something like this?

you could use (css) padding or border to create the colored background

Re: [css-d] li's indenting
Unfortunately, I can't test this now, but did you try explicitly
clearing the float in teh p, say with a br class=clear/ using:
.clear{clear:both; font-size:0px; line-height:0; margin:0; padding:0;}
might be behind the times with clearing, but so's IE6...

Re: [css-d] Site Help - Problem with IE7 in some circumstances (on wide monitors)
Thanks much to Tim Snadden, who identified a workaround for IE7 of movind the page centering styles (margins auto with fixed width) from the body tag to a new container tag. I am now working to implement, and am glad it works. -Edward At 11:49 AM +0800 8/18/09, Edward Spodick wrote: Good morning, everyone. I have just learned that our updated website design breaks our navigation bar in MSIE7 on 22 wide monitors with 1680x1050 resolution and 96 DPI Windows settings. Several other MSIE7 configurations are not showing this problem. The page loads fine, and looks fine initially. But when the window is resized, the navbar under the banner image remains in a fixed location, instead of moving with the rest of the layout. This seems to be caused or triggered by position: relative; in the navigation.css, but without that the navbar becomes rather useless. I would greatly appreciate some help on this - hopefully some innocuous thing which would resolve the entire issue smoothly. Note that except for our home page, we do not use separate stylesheets for different browsers, nor is that an option here - so I need a solution which can be placed in the existing stylesheet(s), would fix the IE7 sometimes issue, and not break everything else. On the other hand, I no longer care if IE6 breaks. :) I just had a vision of Don Quixote charging a windmill.
