Hi this is the html to generate the behavior:
Don't post fragments or complete pages, post URLs to publically
accessible examples.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
Why use XHTML? For XHTML to even begin to be a good idea, you must
know why you're doing it, appreciate why you shouldn't do it,
understand what precise benefit using it will give you for this
precise example, then show that there actually is such a benefit.
There almost never is such a benefit.
Why use Transitional? As for XHTML, maybe even more so.
Use HTML 4.01 Strict instead, all the time, unless you can argue a
good case for it with the audience here.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<body style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
Where's the <headand <titleelements?
This code is invalid. That means three or four things at least:
* You haven't read the newsgroup, or understood the importance of
using valid markup.
** You don't appreciate that posting invalid code here is just going
to generate a "Post valid code" response.
* Invalid code makes IE go bananas. A basic starting point for keeping
it under control is to only feed it valid code.
* You don't validate your code as a matter of course. _Anything_ could
be hiding in there.
* We don't have time to fix valid code. We certainly don't have time
to mess with invalid stuff. Do the basics yourself first.
I used margin-left: 10px (and float:left;) but IE6 show a margin with 20px.
Go and read
http://brainjar.com/css/positioning/ on the meaning and
effects of "width" and "margin" when applied to floated elements. You
need to understand what float means first of all before using it. In
particular the stuff about floated elements being taken out of the
normal flow of rendered elements.
Please help-me!!!
or my boss will kill me ;)
We're still thinking about it.
