Joe - thank you so much for your suggestion. I am trying to control the positioning (top & Laeft) with CSS now,
http://indistudio.com/test/gallery.htm Could you please check source for CSS, it is working as it is in IE 4.7, but not in NN
header statement is STYLE TYPE="text/css"> BODY { margin-top: 0; margin-left: 0 } hr {color: #000000} </STYLE>
when I try to put <div> statement in body, it highlights with error. I have also experiemented with seperate style sheet, with no luck in statement.
I will appreciate any help in this. I have been just doing lot of tutorials and experimenting. Aalso any comment on the javascript.
indira

|A couple of things. | |First, you have a style named margin that is associated only with the span |element near the top of the page. This span opens and closes without |encompassing anything. So the style is not applied to anything. | |Second, I wouldn't use a name like margin which has a meaning all its own. |Try using a name that better describes what you are doing relative to the |page. | |The other thing you might do is use a <div> instead of the <span> to wrap |everything in. The div is a block level container and the span is in-line. |It appears the div will be a better container for this large block on the |page. | |Joe Huggins |Colorado Area Health Education Center |University of Colorado Health Science Center |(W) 303.724.1131 |(C) 303.596.7727 |http://www.uchsc.edu/ahec/model | |-----Original Message----- |From: IndiraBawa [mailto:2designers@rogers.com] |Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 1:13 AM |To: Dreamweaver Talk |Subject: Re: validation & Doctype | | |Ron - thanks so much for your suggestion. | |I have removed most of the unnecessary tags, I have left very topmargin, |left margin, and line colour tag. | |I still need your help.
