Fixed most problems

Sent by Alek Vila on 29 November 2004 18:06


Thanks Zoe,

Yes I did!  It was a nightmare, but I had access to PC when I was home for Thanksgiving.  I found
solutions after a lot of experimentation.

1) The line-height variance was a problem with non-collapsing margins (only in IE).  I solved it by
adding an invisible bottom border to each link.
2) The nav width issue was solved by removing "float:left" and switching to absolute positioning
for the nav bar.  I believe the gap was caused by the IE 3-pixel gap bug.

I have determined that in almost all cases, it is far better to put all margins and padding on the
blocks inside a div, rather than to rely on browsers to interpret the specified width of a div
correctly.  Thanks to the
incompatibility of the world's most commonly-used browser.  It is frustrating, but I'm working
around it.

NOTE: I still need to solve the pop-up submenu location issue, as posted this morning
(http://www.racingheart.com/JayD).  Any help with that would be most appreciated!

:-)
