MSIE no more knows bottom

Hi,

I got the following stylesheet and it works on all major browsers on
windows and macos:

body {margin:0px;bac kground-color:#ffffff;}

#foot
{position:fixed ;bottom:0px;wid th:100%;height: 16px;background-color:#c0ffc0;}

with

<div id="foot">Foote r</div>

Only the MSIE 7 placed it at the top!

Do someone know this problem and got a workaround or css hack?

bye

It surely doesn't. It doesn't on the most popular browser, IE 6.

You apparently didn't test on MSIE 6 at all.

Besides, on MSIE 7, you most probably triggered Quirks Mode by using
wrong markup, see
http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/quirks-mode.html

(Hint: Posting a URL is essential when asking for help. Among other
things, it would let people see what, if any, doctype you're using -
something very important, though many authors are unaware of this.)

As you probably know, when you click on a link in MSIE and go to a page, then when you click the "back" button, you see a dotted box outlining the link on which I just clicked. As far as I'm aware, no versions of Opera support this desired capability natively, so I've experimented, as best I could, with using a custom CSS file which contains the following: a:hover { outline: 2px dotted black; }

I'm trying to use the hover pseudo-attribute to display footnotes in documentation. The footnotetext is hidden until you hover over the footnotemark. This work well in Safari and Firefox, but I can't seem to get it to work in MSIE. Is this even possible in MSIE? If so, can you explain why this CSS doesn't work? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html>

We are trying to create a stylesheet that works both for FF and MSIE. I've been googling a bit yesterday and found some hints (like using #margin-left or _margin-left for MSIE) but it seems these are outdated, as they also affect FF. This must be a FAQ (anyone with the address to it?) but how do I write margin-top: -40px; margin-left: 170px; so FF actually uses both directions while MSIE ignores the margin-left instruction? As above

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
