[css-d] I can't believe I had to use Absolute Positioning...

Sent by Chris Smith on 2 August 2002 03:03


Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've come a long way
in the past 4 months with CSS, but positioning is
definately my weak point. This was a great lesson to
learn from. I appreciate your help, both of you.

The working page is at:

I'll test it on Win2000, NS6.2 and IE6.0 tomorrow when
I get to work. For now, it works great on Mac OS X
NS6.2 and IE5.2.

This is one of the problems with the Mailman archive system.  Instead of 
providing all the tools needed to build a great archive, they seem to 
expect you to create it yourself, using mngosearch or htdig to search the 
archives that they create.  I'm not impressed.  The rest of Mailman is 
great - just a shame about this feature.
