Hi there,
I've tried to create an elastic CSS layout using min-width and max-width
properties. This seems to work fine in Firefox, but fails to work in
Internet Explorer 6 or 7, even though I read that IE7 now supports these
properties? In IE6 and IE7, the page seems to be 100% wide, edge to edge.
The page in question I'm having issues can be found via this link: http://tinyurl.com/3xx3kw
I'd appreciate any advice on what I'm doing wrong to make this work in IE7.
Secondly, can anyone recommend a hack that works well for IE6?
Thanks for any advice,
Ste 2  4082

Your lack of DOCTYPE triggers quirks mode in all browsers. IE requires
standards mode for a number of things to render comparably to other
browsers. Use HTML 4.01 Strict for best compatibility across browsers. http://www.hut.fi/u/hsivonen/doctype.html

Ahh, I can't believe I missed that. That will explain why all the
other pages were displaying okay! I use includes to insert certain
pieces of information such as the metatags, header, footer, etc, and I
also had an include for doctype, just n case I wanted to change it on a
global scale at some point. Anyway, I must have deleted it by accident
when deleting and re-arranging some of the HTML and just never spotted
this...

Once again my big mouth has landed me with a tough job.
I have a static CSS layout, where each and every element has been defined
by pixel size - lots of them, too! Mostly relative elements, though.
Imagine centered column layout, with a header box, and content box with
lots of smaller content boxes of different sizes, some spanning several
'rows' or 'columns'.
How would you go about changing this kind of static layout into

I'm trying (once again) to figure out how to make a robust

to do a basic two-column layout, with a one-column header,
a two column body, and a two-column footer.
The problem, and one that always sends me back to using tables,
is that word "robust." Absolute positioning gets squirrelly,
because it takes the positioned elements completely out of the
float scheme, and stuff...

Hi,
I am new to this newsgroup and need help in the following questions.
1. I am workin' on a GUI application. Does C# provides Layout Managers the
way Java does to design GUI? I know that it can be done using the designer
but I intentionally don't want to use that. The one reason is that you
cannot change the code generated by the designer. The other could be that
you have more free hand and control to design your GUI.

I have two kind of web pages :

for the pages with more content. But, the pages having less content
