First image problem and inline list problem

[konnor5092]

I have had a brief look on the web for a 'hack' to fix this but so far have been unsuccessful.

My navigation list is appearing like in IE6 when I use the parameter 'display:block'



If I change this to display: 'inline-block', it displays correctly in IE 6 and 7, but my dividers are too small in Firefox....

IE6, IE7....



Firefox....



My second query is that I can't remove the first divider image from the list.

I have tried...

Code: Select all

ul .first a {
     background: none;
}

to no avail.

Thanks,

Try floating the links:

Code: Select all

ul a {
    float: left;
}

Should fix the problem.

I had this problem a day ago. Mine was due to using padding which made the div bigger but not the border. I think it will do that if you have top or bottom padding. If you are using that to move the text into the centre of the div then try using line-height instead.

You can always feed IE the "inline-block" version using a separate stylesheet (included with conditional comments).

err did i miss something? I don't have a problem, i just said i had the same problem and said how i fixed it and suggested how he might do the same. I'm not asking for advice i was giving it, for what its worth . Don't really see what there is to create a thread about.

Well... The real lesson to be learned here is not to bring up ancient threads.

This thread was obviously solved, as the last post was on the 1st March 2007.

Cheers,

Sorry. I'm pretty sure it wasn't marked as solved.....so isn't the lesson to be learned, 'mark your threads as solved?' I apologise for posting in here non-the-less.

Im not having a 'dig' at you here i am just stating that if the thread is many months old, and never been touched - don't post in it.

Reason for it not being 'Marked as solved' is we never had that function back then

Thanks,
