2. I have used a modification of one of Russ' tutorials for the #header and #subnav - to float the menu elements left and right. Is there a cleaner way to achieve this other than to apply a class to *every* li tag? The most powerful way to achieve this (but not supported by IE) would be to

Re: [WSG] Redundant Code

Hi Russ Thanks very much for your reply. The most powerful way to achieve this (but not supported by IE) would be to use adjacent sibling selectors so no classes were used at all. For example: #subnav ul li, #subnav ul li + li { background: yellow; } #subnav ul li + li + li, #subnav ul li

I have subsequently used display: none; on the headers. Is this OK, or would you recommend your suggestion as being more standards-based? display: none has known issues for screen readers: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/fir/ The absolute method, which I have since heard referred to as

The change to the heirarchy above is great, but it doesn't help the #header, #mainnav and #subnav lists because there isn't a heading for these. If you look at the page with styles disabled you'll see what I mean. I think what you and I are both really waiting for is XHTML2; except we need to
