Hi folks,
After being inspired by the article on A List Apart
(http://www.alistapart.com/stories/journey/), I've been experimenting in
controlling the layout of my page with CSS. While I've got a working test
page, there's just a small thing that's irritating me and I was wondering if
someone can help.
Could someone look at http://lordofthemoon.com/test/test2.shtml in IE5
and Mozilla 0.9.x (the problem is known in at least 0.9.2 and 0.9.3).
There should be a fairly large margin at the top of the page (about 15px)
above the blue content pane in Mozilla, but not in IE. I don't know what's
causing this, but when I add the line:
border-top: 1px dotted #6699cc;
to the #wrapper class (the important CSS is in the page source -- the
stuff in the external file is just font and background stuff) the margin
disappears in Mozilla, but a small dotted line appears in IE (see
http://lordofthemoon.com/test/). Both pages appear exactly the same in
Opera 5.01 (with a small margin of about 10px).
I was just wondering if the Mozilla behaviour is a bug, or if I've missed
something in the CSS?
Thanks,
Raj.
