Hi Mike www.mwg.green.net.au/testpagesSaturday Have just re-loaded my preferred version with the wider background image on the left. The entire issue was caused by not having the full doctype on all but one of the pages. There is still a difference in the rendering between IE/Opera and Firefo

I had thought about that one, but dismissed it for a few reasons (primarily my own fault, although W3C guidelines play a part in this decision). In the HTML4 recommendation ( http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/text.html#h-9.2.2 ), the semantic meaning of blockquote and q is defined as being fo

What's the recommended practice with indentation? You can use CSS to indent text with padding and whatever else, but that's a pain if you have a sitewide CSS file, and the text to be indented doesn't sit in any defining container --- Example 1: âJust the place for a Snark!â the Bellman cried,
