[css-d] Formatting "navigation" divs with links in IE6

Alright, yesterday Phillipe responded quickly (and most awesomely) to my first question to this board. Greatest thanks for that. Now for my next quandary... (As before, I've posted a couple of pages of my re-worked client's site at http://www.darrenbest.com/DRUHC/clientguide.html and http://www.

I am retooling a friends site, updating it from a tables format to CSS. First, a question - I want the list items to be two spaces apart, but long individual list items to be single-spaced. Is it possible to do this with CSS, or do I just need to insert a line break at the end of each list it

Re: [css-d] Background in IE6 and 7

Replying to both your messages: Transparent is valid for IE7 but will only work in IE6 if the file's a gif (as yours are) not a png. In answer to your other reply, the fact remains that there was/is a white space in your code which messed up the table head rendering on my browser. Unless I've

Re: [css-d] Background in IE6 and 7

I altered the css to include th.header, but as I thought this makes no difference. Anybody have a suggestion as to why IE is forcing the background to be white when it is set to transparent? Is transparent not a valid value for IE??? TIA, Mark On 05/04/2008, Mark Finney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wr

You have white space in your css definition which is confusing the browsers. It's between the 'tr' and the '.header': /* Your code */ table.styledTable thead tr .header { background: transparent url(bg.gif) center right no-repeat; text-align: left; } /* Amended code */ table.styledTable thead

I would certainly advocate setting up the list method. It shouldn't take you more than 1/2 an hour. :-) I have nothing against JavaScript per se, but I have to agree with you. If you're writing the main part in CSS, it's sensible to do all you can and avoid unnecessary code. Not only that, but

Re: [css-d] Almost there!! But my nav buttons in IE...

Yeah, I'll be doing that, because the a:visited and a:hover will be swapping out the image with another. Perhaps that's what I need to do before I worry any more about the spacing. Who says you need JavaScript to swap images?? I used the CSS image swapping with a website I did for a coffee s
