That is some very kind advice Patrick, thanks. I have implemented the fixes to the main index.php file, and have dropped the newsfeeds for now as they were causing some serious validation issues. The main index.php file now validates fully as valid xhtml and css and works in Moz / Firebird as intended. Just have to give the homepage some proper content and work on validating the rest of the site now :)
Anyone running latest Safari on mac that can check the page for me please? Thanks again. I love this list :) Sam --------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.funkdub.info/ http://www.sammyco.co.uk/ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Patrick Lauke Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2004 04:16 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WSG] Mozilla / Safari Workaround Not going to fix all issues (like the two columns being slightly too wide to fit), but just concentrating on the background: - as all your elements are outside of the normal document flow, your container only has normal content up until it hits #main. to redress this, add #footer { clear: both; } at the end of funkdub2.css (or add the clear rule in your current #footer definition) - now, you'll notice how the dropshadow image goes right down to the bottom, and the footer is in the right place. however, the black background is not shining through, as it's obscured by the actual dropshadow gif. simple fix: edit dropthis.gif and make the central bit (currently white) transparent. this way, the black of the container's background colour can show through Hope this makes some kind of sense, Patrick ________________________________ Patrick H.
