Hmmm. It gets worse. These days we try to write web pages that work on every
browser, not specifically for just one or two, to the exclusion of the

It's also interesting that this site makes no mention at all of the
technology the OP acually requires, that is CSS.

Plus all of the crap that was in use last century.

I too will make a recommendation: You, and the OP, would be far better off
going to W3C and reading the specifications, or at least using something
