Side-stepping IE - a must-read recap of all IE's woes!
http://www.mezzoblue.com/archives/2004/02/25/sidestepping/index.php
Let¹s take a look at some of Internet Explorer for Windows¹ biggest CSS
deficiencies, and how you can use MOSe techniques or just plain old hacks to
get around these problems.
Different browsers react differently - Opera doesn't show the padlock
icon in this case (the page isn't secure as Mark pointed out), Moz will
show a broken padlock icon and IE will go on read alert.
This occurs with anything bought in over http when the main page is
requested over https (e.g im
The "menus" div is overlapping "sidemenu" causing the top entry in the
menu to miss its hover selector ( at least in FireFox here )

templates, and I am including in it a section on div id's and
classes, and what they represent.
Information in this section includes how the different divs work in

My advice would be that if your images are purely decorative, then no 'accessible alternative'
content is required.
There might be an argument for saying that "Picture of Ruby Kavanagh, Principal..." is content
rather than decoration, but it is a judgement call, not a fixed rule.

from ALA. I decided on a colour version and a black and white version
of the site. This would also mean that all the graphics in the site
would have to s
Is it me or does that article simply point out how to generate
non-standards-compliant code with javascript in order to fool the validator?
Though it's not always possible, I prefer adhere to the spirit of the
standard - allowing the user to control where pages open.

Think about it - if I made a page that was https & then had an iframe that
was http from another server The user thinks they are getting https but
in fact they are not. IE does go over the top though - anything linked will
do it (images, etc..).
