At the moment I am attempting to help my brother put together a web page, and I've run into a bit of a sniggle. The design requires a fixed width, but I'm having problems getting different browsers to display the same widths. I know it's due to improper implementation of the box model (adding padding and borders to the box width), but none of the hacks I've tried (SBMH being the latest) seem to work. All these hacks seem to be designed to work around IE 5.x's quirks, but I'm actually having problems with the latest version of Netscape (7.1). IE6 displays fine, but NS7.1 is acting like the old IE. Here is a very simlple test page, along with a handy link to the CSS: [url=http://www.liminality.org/misc/boxtest.html]Box Test[/url] [url=http://www.liminality.org/misc/boxtest.css]Box Test CSS[/url] I've only tested it in two browsers so far (IE6 and NS7.1), so I don't know how other browsers react. I'm sure it's something really stupid that I'm missing here, but if anyone can tell me how to get all major browsers to display this box at 700 pixels wide, I would be most grateful. Thanks in advance. ___________________________ Suho: [url=http://www.liminality.org]www.liminality.org[/url] Loading...
