If anyone can help me get this CSS-based page ([url]http://pc247h8312.med.unc.edu/ccbc/director/index.cgi[/url]) to look like this table hack page ([url]http://pc247h8312.med.unc.edu/ccbc/microarray/vnb/index.cgi[/url]) I'd really appreciate it. For clarity, here is a snippet of the CSS with comments: @charset "iso-8859-1"; body { background-color: #FFFFFF; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; color: black; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; text-decoration: none; } /* Sidebar should stretch from top to bottom so that content is constrained to one neat column. There should be a corner logo with a nav bar beneath. / div.sidebar { margin: 0px; position: fixed; background-color: white; left: 0px; top: 0px; bottom: 0px; width: 192px; } / Titlebar should stretch across the top, seamlessly connecting with the corner image. / div.titlebar { font-size: x-large; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; color: #FFFFFF; position: fixed; right: 0px; left: 192px; background: url('images/topstretch.jpg'); width: 100%; top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; } / Content should fill available space without hiding behind the sidebar or floating over it.*/ div.content { position: relative; margin-right: 30px; margin-left: 0px; } div.navigation { position: relative; top: 5px; left: 12px; padding: 10px; background: url('images/navigation_back.jpg'); font: 12px/20px verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000; width: 119px; voice-family: "\"}\""; voice-family:inherit; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Judge Rob, DVD Verdict: http://www.dvdverdict.com/dossiers/rlineberger.php Site I'm currently struggling with: http://pc247h8312.med.unc.edu/ccbc/index.cgi [small](Edited by [internallink=3362]Rob Lineberger[/internallink] on 06-01-2004 15:23)[/small] Loading...
