Re: OMG IE does it again
just a quick look and it looks like because you set the line height to 25px on the body it overlaps.
try taking it out? |

Re: OMG IE does it again
That's not your only problem. W3C validation shows 13 errors.
But to the original problem. This is why you should always size fonts and their related attributes such as line-height using relative values, i.e., 'em' and '%'. |

Re: OMG IE does it again
Thanks guys,

Re: OMG IE does it again
have you got firefox? probably, check this link, you find some good extensiuons which show the errors and warnings
there are only warnings in the code, nothing major, but they should all be fixed soon. you then be able to see how your site really looks Last edited by karloff; Nov 7th, 2006 at 22:15. |

Re: OMG IE does it again
thanks geoff, i'll get those fixed, allthough the first 3 errors are related to google requiring that mete tag to validate my site for analytics, so im not sure what i can do about that.
The others will be annihilated some time today. |
