i tried the font tag, and the a tag, doesn't seem to work on netscape

and the quote doesn't refresh on NS either

Hi,

Don't put the quote div in a table. Put it by it self at the beginning or end. Since you're giving it left/top values, it won't matter. NN doesn't like divs in tables.

Why do you use classes in EM tags? Why not in font tags? I'm not too sure about the support for em tags in NN (the "NATEBELL.COM" at the top is not showing properly, try putting the class in the a tag or a font tag).

Jon.

Check for other threads on the topic, but you have to explicitly declare the a tag attributes...

a.quick:hover

The :hover pseudo class is only valid for the A tag.

Additionally, there is an order that they have to be in -- check the other posts on this in this forum, as there is some debate on the correct order.

Also, :hover doesn't work in Netscape 4.x browsers, but it doesn't break, either. Don't worry about it.

class element seems to be working for the generated quotes
class="author" and class="quote" but not on my links class="quick"

any ideas about that?

and i can't seem to get the blasted div tag to display in my banner section on IE it is off the side, you can highlight it, and NS i can' find it in there, it is position:absolute

aaaahhhh:(

Classes work in most elements in Netscape (even tables) but not all declarations in them will work. For instance there are compatibility issues between borders and padding in some elements (A tag for instance).

You will have to use left and top. But this should not affect how you want to position it. With a little JavaScript, you can get it positioned to the right, center, etc. on any resolution.

classes do work in NN. You just can't use them EVERYWHERE liek you do in IE. For example, in NN, they doin't work in table tags but DO work in td tags.

Post your stylesheets and I'll see if I can help.

Jon.

i know, i am working on it now, but i am going to give up with netscape, you can't even use class="something" can you?

and why doesn't backgrounds go to the edges?

if i change the position to absolute will it still be displayed at the top, or do i have to position it with left and top?

thanks
