Yes, thanks, I had a look at this. I take it the idea "unsnipped"
above is the crucial point of your code. Does not work in IE Mac
either... but that is easily provided for. I could not see
(across the different browsers) a lot of difference in separator
height "improvement" over my footer2 css. It was interesting also
to see how different browsers rendered yours in respect to where
the text was vis a vis the height of the separators. Sometimes in
the middle (most pleasant):
text | text
And sometimes both text and separators on the floor of a
horizontal line:
1
text 1 text
(you will have to imagine the two 1s joined and as a line)
Interesting idea. All in all, I might stay with footer2 as
enhanced with padding and hopefully Bootnic's Revenge on IE7
zoom.
