Did it and now my brain is completely fried. Can somebody please tell me why the border round the orange box is there in IE and not in FF? (Yes I know the css is untidy and I promise I'll clean it up next week when I've had a rest) (honest) _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.

Hi Jaybee

The problem's because you've got two border styles there:

border:3px solid ridge #800000

it should be:

border:3px ridge #800000

Firefox said, "don''t be stupid you can't do that" and refused to show anything, which is correct. It's also why there's such awful code out there because IE lets you get away with it. I'll be intrigued to see how many sites fall flat on their faces when the new OS comes out with the apparently fully compliant browser _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.

Makes you think you're going nuts doesn't it? _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project (in reply to jaybee)

What a pillock! I need a stiff drink. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype? (in reply to jaybee)
