Hi
I have a difficult layout that only began working in IE6.0 and Firefox when I took out the XML declaration thus putting IE6.0 into standards mode and thus not using the broken box model.
Trouble is I need it to work on IE5.5 as well.
I have no experience with the various hacks/bugs/workarounds but would be grateful if someone could talk me through in simple steps the method of getting this to work in IE5.5 if possible.
I could also use some feedback on if I have the best/correct doctype selected.
My goal is to contain everything in a single CSS file even if it contains browser only sections or properties due to the work arounds.
My latest attempt: http://195.10.244.171/Temp/almostworks.htm
Fellow forum member Stu helped me put this together and I believe it is possible to get it to work in IE5.5 but haven't been able to grasp the too brief explanations as to how.
Yours hopefully
