Re: [WSG] Horizontal Rule throwing out design

Jason...I decided to try the  thing again cos you said
it should work and now it does(h!)...
maybe it was conflicting with some css that I have now changed or removed.
Possible.

I would also be interested in getting the hr thing working for future use if
poss so would be interested in the solution to that too if any one has it
nutted out already.

I was trying to do this yesterday and eventually went back to using a
. IE was the only browser causing trouble, and I tried many
different suggestions I found on the net

I found a post by Eric Meyer to add visibility:hidden, but that still
takes up space.

So I would also like to hear if anyone has a solution

Hey there crew,

I've had this same problem recently and someone on this list helped me out.
I can't remember who though.

I needed to have a repeating image for the hr and the kludge I ended up
using to accomodate IE was:

In my stylesheet:

div.hr {
 margin: 20px 10px 0px 0;
 padding: 0 15px 0 0;
 height: 10px;
 background: #fff url(http://www.omnus.com.au/images/omnus_h_dotted.gif)
repeat-x;
 }

div.hr hr {
 display: none;
 }

and in my code:



For furrher references go here:

Hope this helps,
Benvolio
