Good evening all, I've tried researching this question online, and reviewing the following books in my library, "Web Standards Solutions," and "The CSS Anthology: 101 Essential Tips, Tricks and Hacks," but to no avail. Is there an accepted method of laying out two unordered lists, side-by-side (a

Is this very naughty? It doesn't validate as CSS, but then neither does the underscore hack (unless the validator is wrong, as some would have us believe). The easiest description is that _ or - as the first letter of a selector is formally allowed in CSS (it is designed for vendor specific exte

[WSG] underscore hack - why underscore?

2005-04-02 Thread designer
I have been playing with the underscore hack and noticed that almost anything that isn't 0-1 or a-z performs the same trick. Certainly * works, as does #, <, >, {, }, [, ], (, ), ^, /, =, ~, @, ?, and, probably, lots more. If this is correct, I personally would prefer to put my 'IE only' correcti

Hi, I'm driving myself mad with a css problem here: http://www.uniplus-finanziamenti.it/redesign/. Some divs are absolutely positioned so the text inside is not selectable (copy/paste) in IE6...   I've tried using relative positioning in several ways without solving the problem (the right

It's late, I could be wrong and only looked at the doctype...The doctype is not xhtml..It's html - You dont have to have closing tags in regular html. Interesting, no? http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/figures.html What I find interesting/puzzling is that there are no closing paragraph
