Re: [css-d] small div height needed in IE6

2007-02-07 Thread Mike Purvis
Gary, IE expands all elements to contain one line of text's worth of whitespace. Fix it with a font-size:1px. If you need a zero-height div for clearing or something, you can do this: div.zeroheight { font-size: 1px; height: 3px; margin-top: -3px; } That pulls it up over top of the previ

[css-d] Interesting IE bug with overflow inside an anchor

2005-12-22 Thread Mike Purvis
I don't know if anyone's seen this before, but I ran into it recently working on a photo gallery site for a friend: http://gallery.marshallweb.ca/ In FF, the images in the little square boxes are clickable, in IE5/6, they aren't. A span inside the anchor is being set to overflow:hidden, and the
