Re: HR styles (was: CSS Questions)

Sorry folks, but I can't get _any_ CSS to work on <HR> in Netscape
4.07, and "size" becomes "height" in IE5.

Also, the references I use all show that Netscape does not recognize
styles for <HR> on Netscape.

     HTML The Definitive Guide, 3rd ed., Musciano and Kennedy;
O'Reilly & Assoc. (1998)
     HTML 4.0 Sourcebook, Graham; Wiley Computer Publishing (1998)
     HTML 4 for the World Wide Web, a Visual Quickstart Guide, Castro;
Peachpit Press (1998)

One reason for the poor support, I feel, is that stylesheets should
make the <HR> obsolete WHEN THE BORDER PROPERTY IS FULLY SUPPORTED. It
will only be necessary to create a box with a top border specified to
produce a line across the page.

Of course, that isn't available yet.

...this definitely works
on Netscape Navigator 4.x (and presumably on MS Internet Explorer ;-).
