You are correct in stating that the stylesheets used by the Netscape site are not the most elegant use of the CSS rules. I have tested the premise of the inline rule causing the problem by removing it from line 131 of template(1).css and the menu does indeed look ok in Amaya. However the fact remains that the original stylesheet is valid and does result in readable display in other browsers. Browser implementers should work towards making all valid styles and html readable even if at times the recommendation is vague on points of rendering (many places actually). I realize that there are many higher priorities such as internationalization, gui/widget work, and css and svg editing that take away from the time needed to perfect formatting (especially with so few workers) but could you place this quirk on the 2.do list for later fixup. You have gradually repaired most of the box nesting calculations and many sites look well now. But a few touchups still remain. Thanks for analysing the rendering of that site and spotting where the error really is... john in niagara Le Lundi 14 Février 2005 01:06, John Russell a écrit : > http://mozilla.org/projects/xforms/ > uses several stylesheets and displays well in all browsers except Amaya > Irene responded with > the sidebar menu is a unordered list .... > the items in the list are links > when viewed with amaya the style applied to each list item is inline but > the style applied to the nested link is block !!! it seems that this is > what is spoiling the look of the menu as the list is being displayed > horizontally instead of vertically .... template(1).css seems to be > where the rules are being generated for this level .... does this bug > still exist or has it been repaired and i am unable to see that as i > must use the snapshot and not the cvs -- john russell ve3ll@rac.ca [those are L's as in LLAMA] http://home.cogeco.ca/~ve3ll http://home.cogeco.ca/~trains http://home.cogeco.ca/~cipher
