You should find the layout you get in Firefox is the same as in Netscape, Opera and Mozilla. quote: Unfortunately, IE5 and IE6 in quirks mode, thinks that when you set the width, you're setting the sum of the content area, the boders and the padding instead of just the content area as it should be. And IE6 lets the margins and replaced elements of a child element affect the width of the containing block whilst asserting in the MS documentation that this is not allowed. Take a look at this for more info http://tantek.com/CSS/Examples/boxmodelhack.html _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype?
