One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that if you set your IE rendering mode with an x-ua-compatible meta tag, it needs to be within the first 512bytes of the document. In practice that just means do it as the second thing inside <head>, after your document encoding (which needs to be before <title> for security purposes http://code.google.com/p/doctype/wiki/ArticleUtf7). cheers, Ben -- --- <http://weblog.200ok.com.au/> --- The future has arrived; it's just not --- evenly distributed. - William Gibson ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
