« on: 22 February 2004, 04:34 »
I am trying to create a site that has IE support IE is not a satndard browser and dose not support the standards for CSS. I have to use a background for the image because IE has problems with 100%. Therefor, I cound not use an <img> tag (Im talking about table_background.png. and now I need both the height on the first row of the table to be the same on both cells. No matter what I do, they rrefuse to be the same.
Code: [Select]
* onclick event
** onload event

Just a Note:

IE's compatible w/ just about anything.  Even the sloppiest code.  It takes all of the skill out of Web Design.  I would say code for a Standards-based browser like Mozilla or Opera.

Your code is about as elegant as your typing.  No wonder you can't figure out what is wrong.

IE supports CSS just fine, if you use it right.

Well, IE 5.x's CSS1 and CSS2 support was poor indeed but not nearly as poor as that of Netscape 4.x's. IE 6 seems to handle CSS a lot better.

In any case, I have not yet been able to understand what you want to do Canadian Lover. What confuses me the most is this sentence:

What do you mean by that exactly?

I don't see why you shouldn't be able to do so. In any case, I would like to see either a snapshot of your site to make sure.

Just a Note:

Remember that if you use the #ID in CSS it will more than likely work on only one object in the linked/containing page.  You may also want to do the following:

Code: [Select]

Netscape refused to support CSS in earlier versions 4.x.  They supported JavaScript Style Sheets (JSSS - an attempt to increase support for JavaScript).  I think they finally began minimal support for CSS in 4.79.

Hmm, first of all I would try what SAJChurchey suggested above, that is create an id property for the specific img tag and link it that way to your CSS file.

Otherwise you could always apply a local style inside your img tag, like:

Code: [Select]
