Problem with descriptive lists in CSS

Below is a question I posted on comp.infosystem s.www.authoring.html and I
was advised to try here instead.
I am trying to use descriptive lists, <DL>, as shown in
<http://www.maths.man.a c.uk/~jhaig/tmp/test.html> with a style sheet
at <http://www.maths.man.a c.uk/~jhaig/tmp/default-2.css>. With
Mozilla and Opera they appear correctly, with a border round both the
<DT> and <DD> parts but in Internet Explorer the borders are messed
up. Can anyone please tell me where the mistake is?

As an aside, the <div id="main"> section should have the right border
20px from the right hand side of the window. How can I get this to
display properly?

Thanks.

I am trying to call the click event of a button located in a subform called "Order Subform" from a button in the parent. However, since the subform was made with the wizard, it contains a space in its name, so the syntax that I have found for this has not been working. If anyone knows the syntax for this, I would appreciate it.

I take this example from a writer in alt.usage.english <news://r3jie3p93s1eaflgcckn2hinf3li4mnfud@4ax.com>, where the question of whether the "and" is required came up strictly as an issue of English usage, because it illustrates a recurring problem in HTML markup. How should this be marked up? Yes, generally, "Bob went to the store..." is marked up in P and the items as LI in OL. But logically, the list belongs to the paragraph. ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
