Have you tried experimenting with CSS "margin" and "padding" also?
As these aren't always treated consistently across browsers.

Sorted now, thanks. used negetive margins and the underscore hack in the
end.

Sounds very much like you are treating the symptoms, not the problem.
That is surely the wrong way to go about it.

If it's an IE only issue (make sure that it really is) then you don't use
hacks, you use "conditiona l comments":

Hacks are ugly.

i've placed a table within a <div> to dispay some data.
All is well in FF, but in MSIE the table starts inline with the bottom of
the <div> to the left. I've set the css div to vertical align: top, but this
hasn't made a differance.

IE does not always correctly flow blocks. I'm a little vague on the
specifics but IIRC it miscalculates the available horizontal space
thinking there is not enough for, say, a table whose width is 100%.
A couple of things to try:
1. Float the .content div
2. Set the table's width to less than 100%, or do not use a width at all
BTW "vertical-align: top" is meaningless for a div.

Well, maybe it is a matter of taste... on reflection, are hacks
per se ugly, and does it matter? What matters objectively is that
something relatively simple works, that it is not going to be a
nuisance later. This latter possibility is a serious one.
Ugly is in the eye of the beholder on this one, I don't find them
that ugly, they have been cleverly found and work and I am
reminded of this when I see them and I look on admiringly. They
are simpler in many ways than making separate style sheets just
for this IE or that IE and IE in common.
I am not advocating them here. I just think it is a bit precious
to refrain from fighting something ugly (IE rendering standards)
in too prim and proper a manner. There is an argument here that
the remedy rather nicely fits the cause.
And really, when push comes to shove, they are broadly
conditional defences against specific nuisances.

No it isn't. If you can do the same thing with a conditional comment, do
it with a conditional comment.

Hi,
I'm trying to position a <tr> ("row") element with CSS.
The table itself is positioned with <div> tags. The problem is when I
use <div> tags to position the rows within the table nothing happens.
In the following example, I want to position two table rows relative
to the table itself.
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Please provide sample code.

Hey,
I am trying to learn the exact behavior of CSS and was just placing a

Each of the <divhas a <pwithin and some text within the <p>

the entire space I believe it should. The div only has color around the

Dear folks,
In Javascript, is it possible to get all id names within, say, a

The reason I ask, is that I have a calender whose <td></tdtable

is "today" (to highlight it). Once the calender is drawn, the Javascript
has ended. And since Javascript has no known (to me) method of storing

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
