http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/ illustrates how after all this time one can not rely on css to give a consistent rendering of a design... using amaya 7.1 there is no menu box at all using msie 6.0 sp1 the menu box scrolls off the screen using mozilla/phoenix the menu box stays in the corner so that it can be accessed no matter where you scrolled. I think that the mozilla way is the intent of the designer but it sure doesn't work for all.... Designers sure lose a lot of time finding out what works where .... this nonsense is similar to having auto horn in different locations only to be noticed at point that you need it.... oh yeah that's right auto horns can be on the signal arm --- pull to beep, or push into column to beep, in center of steering wheel, on edge of steering wheel or on a cord (the big 16 wheelers)...... STANDARDS would be nice to have... and even nicer if they were followed // John Russell, VE3LL@RAC.CA http://home.cogeco.ca/~ve3ll (2 L's as in LLAMA) check HTML at http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/ check CSS at http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ check JavaScript at http://www.crockford.com/javascript/jslint.html
