You can use an <hr> in the same way, width and size are the attributes to
control it's dimensions. Add a style attribute and you can make it look like
whatever you want.

Subject: IE 6 and percentage heights in images


> I've got an image on my site that is 1 pixel wide by 100% high. In IE5.x,
it
> displays nicely as a vertical rule extending the entire height of the
table
> cell it is in.
>
> Something like:
>
> <.img src="blah.gif" width="1" height="100%">
>
> Now, IE 6 comes along and the "rule" no longer works (pun intended). (It
> doesn't display in NN 4.x either, but I've been able to live with that.)
> Unfortunately, I expect IE6 to gain browser share quickly, so I'd like a
> work-around.
>
> Any ideas?
>
> (By the way, the browscap.ini file is a wonderful thing, paired with IIS
5's
> MSWC.BrowserType object. I use it to provide IE6 users with their own
> stylesheet to overcome Microsoft's friggin' decision to now make
> align="center" the default for td's.)
