Archived from groups: alt>www>webmaster (more info?)

I tried this one on alt.html earlier today, but without any helpful
responses. Maybe I'll be more lucky around here....

I'm in the process of designing a new website, and there seems to be some
sort of rendering problem when I opened it in Netscape 7.1; the images on
the top row seems to be hovering about 1pt over the rest. It looks just fine
in Opera and IE, and I've been told Mozilla handles it nicely as well.

http://www.betadome.com/main/

Don't bother clicking any of the links, they'll only point to the old
website.

Also: does anyone know why Opera and Netscape shows an extra space between
the top row and the rest of the content (about 2-3pt)? IE shows about 1pt,
which is what I intended.

On the lighter side, I've finally designed a (major) website that's valid
XHTML 1.0 Strict. I know, I'm way behind the rest, but I guess I had to be
sure all (or even most) browsers could handle it properly.

Mozilla handles inline elements strictly as inline. This means it adds
descender space below any inline element, even images. To fix it, you can
either set your images to display:block; and position them that way, or
give them all vertical-align:top;

Well, I know vertical-align:top was out of the question, since the images
had to line up with the bottom of the logo on the right. So, I did a
display:block and an extra vertical-align:bottom on the images themselves,
and that worked like a charm.

I can finally concentrate on the PHP code that's behind the website content
now. Asking others for help when you're stuck truly pays off.

Thank you!

No problem, and nice to see you back.
