Good Day, List, In my effort to further comply with guidelines, I have inserted a noscript element in the page:
http://www.wdfcs.ca/contact.htm Default styles are here (I've got it right, this time): http://www.wdfcs.ca/fcss/default.css Page specific styles are here: http://www.wdfcs.ca/fcss/contact.css Everything is validated. Rendering is as one would expect (scripting on/off) in Op7.23, NS7.1 & FF0.8 (Win XP & 98SE), but to no surprise, IE Win XP & 98 (5.01/5.5/6.0 SP1) is breaking. It is most evident when the page is re-sized or scrolled. A giant gap is appearing through which can be seen the background pattern of the wrapper. Furthermore, it is even more evident when all font colors, styles and sizes are ignored (internet tools->accessibiltiy). The <.h2> element is being forced below the line of the last button on the nav menu (in line with). To witness this effect further, (in ignore mode) hover on the menu item "Character Education." The added left-margin (used for effect) causes to the text to overflow its container and wrap to the next line. This in turn pushes everything on the right, below and including the <.h2>, downward. That's with scripting turned on. Now when one turns scripting off, the entire contact information box drops below the nav line at certain widths, and returns to its correct postion at others. Rather disconcerting, to be sure. I've tried clearing the float on the nav, to no avail. There are a couple of <.br class="clear /> (in default.css) in the content area, as well. The one immediately preceeding the <.h2> element is effective in eliminating the "venetian blind effect" that was occuring when the page is scrolled up and down. (The <.h2> and its borders will come and go while scrolling). To further complicate this problem, the <.h1> element pops in and out without apparent reason when the page is refreshed at certain widths. I can live with the gap below the contact information box, but the disappearing act above and below it is rather unnerving. May I request the assistance of the list with this problem, please? No doubt, the cure is right under my nose, but it's just not readily apparent through the fog of my own frustration. Thank you in advance, Roy ***************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help *****************************************************
