Happens to me all the time. Must be old age - or something.


*Thanks*.


You're welcome.

Now, remember to test with all the usual browser-options, because I
might :-)
At the moment that...

SAP

...is showing up in IE/win when I use the 'ignore font size' option. You

Left column not well prepared for my standard option... 'min font 
size = 14px'. Same "overshooting" result in Firefox 1.5 and Opera 
9tp2.



I can't think of a "fix" besides creating a large gutter between the
 two columns...


Not necessary, as you can have elastic layouts without using em on
individual containers. I just tested on a copy of your page, and it
behaves just fine even though I didn't go in depth or looked at your CSS.

The "trick" (which should be used more often, IMO) is to set 'em'-width
only on the outer container and '%'-width on all the others. Your layout
is so close to an ordinary '25%+75% 2-column float construct' that it'll
come out fine with such values. Some slight margin-adjustments will take
care of the rest across browser-land

My "hope" is that users with such settings will know how to take 
advantage of that elastic layout; two simple "Ctrl++" should take 
care of the "issue".


:-)
Guess so. However, we use such minimum-settings so we won't have to
click anything. That's the whole idea.

Georg

Hi Christian,
Your machine is fine. Opera renders the exact same thing as IE does, the
difference is that I was able to use a Conditional Comment to take care of
that "shift" in IE (I just won't make the extra effort for Opera).

The "effect" I was after is that the 2 bottom corners look like they are
"up"; but mostly I was testing a DOM solution to keep the markup clean.

Thanks Pete,
It looks fine in FF 1.5, but I just checked in FF 0.8  and I can see what
you're describing.
I can't find a way to fix it though :-(

They look fine in FF 1.5 Win but they are off to the right in Opera 8
Win. I don't know if others have this problem in Opera 8, it might
just be my machine which has a problem with the DPI.

I should also mention that these drop-shadows make me sick to my
stomach. I think it is because they do not look realistic but (I
presume unintentionally) create a sort of optical-illusion. The boxes
look flat but they have a shadow that appears curved. I would go for
some more traditional drop-shadows.
