I hate when people don't read threads properly. This was just two posts above yours and, in a nutshell, describes exactly why XHTML is better than HTML:

If it wasn't on a University domain, I'd think it was a piss-take. I can't see why anyone would need to add any more functionality at the sketch stage. A sketch is just going to be the very roughest representation of what your layout's going to look like.You're going to do most of the work in a real graphics program before moving to your text editor to create the code.

Are you planning on having a scrollbar inside the light blue area and keep all your graphical elements in the same position relative to each other no matter how much content, or are you going to have a normal scrollbar and have the elements at the bottom of the design move towards the bottom of the screen as the user scrolls?

The thing is, it's mainly people who have an interest in one particular religion who are likely to be offended by coming up against contrasting views from someone who follows another faith. In other words, the target audience of a religious forum are also the ones most likely to be offended. I personally think you'd need a pretty strong admin/mod to keep tabs on it cos I've seen seem religious topics on other forums spiral out of control.

Didn't read the thread properly, did ya?

Horizontal scrollbars are a bad thing. Why would you actually want one?

The first internet company I worked for in 1998 was using NetObjects. I didn't realise they still made it.

Not trying to be rude or funny, but why do you use NS over Firefox?

It integrates with ImageReady (Fireworks equivalent) and I would've thought there'd be some integration with GoLive too (but I've never used it so just guessing).

That's not quite true. You can run both PHP & ASP on a Windows box.

I'm a long-time Fireworks user too and have always liked the fact that you can easily select any object on your canvas, no matter what layer it's on (I know you can do this in PS now, but it wasn't always that way).

Straight from Google (it's not that hard to use).

Sounds like you haven't actually used Adblock. Not only can you block any type of ad, but you can also turn off individual's signature images on Xisto if you want to (and I have).

Funnily enough, I was just thinking of this notion today and was wondering what consequences it might have for business on the Net. I'm not sure it'll kill it though cos Internet marketing now is substantially different to what it was five years ago, so I'm sure it'll just evolve into something different.

I think you meant padding-right and bottom rather than three paddding-lefts, didn't you? (Incidentally, it can be written as: padding 0 5px which covers all four sides as bottom mirrors top and left mirrors right unless you specify values for them.)

You can edit PHP in anything that edits text, e.g. Notepad. There's no program out there that can do a better job of teaching you how to use PHP than what you'll get from reading online tutorials/books etc.

A missing </p> tag's not going to stop an image from displaying.

Taken from here:

Sorry for not getting back sooner, but try this: #main_menu ul { padding: 0px; height: 25px; margin: 0; background-color: #2C4554; color: #FFF; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; clear: left; list-style: none;}#main_menu li, li li { float: left; }#main_menu ul li a { display: block; height: 18px; width: 8.5em; padding: 0.2em 1em; background-color: #2C4554; color: #FFF; text-decoration: none; border-right: 1px solid #fff;}#main_menu ul li a:hover { background-color: #547CA8; color: #fff;}#main_menu li ul { position: absolute; width: 8.5em; left: -999em;}#main_menu li li { position: relative; width: 8.5em; left: 0; border-top: 1px solid #FFF;}#main_menu li li a { width: 8.5em; height: auto; font-size: 85%; color: #FFF;}#main_menu li li a:hover { color: #FFF; background: #547CA8;}/* lists nested under hovered list items */ #main_menu li:hover ul, #main_menu li.sfhover ul { left: auto; }(I've changed some of the colours cos I cut & pasted from somewhere else.) Also, to get it to work in IE, you need this in the <head> section: <script type="text/javascript">sfHover = function() { var sfEls = document.getElementById("main_menu").getElementsByTagName("LI"); for (var i=0; i<sfEls.length; i++) { sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() { this.className+=" sfhover"; } sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() { this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(" sfhover\\b"), ""); } }}if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", sfHover);</script>

So far today I've listened to End of Fashion by End of Fashion and The Overture and the Underscore by Sarah Blasko.

Life is something you have to get cos that's what people keep saying these days.

They must be keeping it pretty quiet then, cos there's nothing about it in the news.

Nothing to do with which version of IE or Mac v PC; it was to do with the associated CSS which wasn't posted in this thread (sorted out via PM).

Well, I don't know what you two are doing, but this is what it looks like in IE5.01 for me: See: line breaks where they're s'posed to be (and that comes from the code in the very first post in this thread). That's why I asked to see your page cos there must be something else affecting your display.

Got a page we can look at?
