The problem was that IE doesn't support display:border, but it does
usually mimic the behavior if you use width:100%. And the reason why
this worked, has something to do with the list items overflowing their
containers, or something... I just know that the list item that broke
into two lines was the culprit. It needed the "block" width to display
right.

Just send the latte through e-mail, thanks. Always happy to help.

Thanks Christian

That fixed it.  I can't figure out why, though. Is there some connection 
between specifying width and border display? Or is it just an IE thing? 
Anyway, you sorted it out in the nick of time.  I owe you.

This is what I did:

#sidenav li {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0px;
text-align: center;
padding: 0;
display: block;
border-bottom-width: 1px;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-bottom-color: #ccc;
color: #036;
width:100%;   /* SEE THIS? */
}

Did that work?

[css-d] Put gap in list styled for navigation IE problems

2005-10-30 Thread Paul Jinks
First - big thanks to everyone who replied on this one (see below). In

the end I went with two lists, seemed most "correct" and put a 
margin-bottom in to separate them.

However, when I view this in IE6/XP, the line dividing the top two links 
disappeared.  everything else checks out fine - but no line there. I 
can't see anything in there to cause this, and it doesn't happenn FF/NN. 
If anyone could suggest a fix, I'd get them a latte.  Site launch is on 
Monday ;-)

I've tried to keep the code fairly clean and easy to read. let me know 
if you think not.

TIA

Paul

P.S.: Apologies to Steve for sending this to him instead of the list. A slip of 
the mouse.
