I have put up at http://dorayme.150m.com/test1/main.html
something to illustrate something that puzzles me. I found I
could get rid of the white space below and above the inline list
by assigning negative bottom margin to the the banner div and
same for top margin for the content div. I can also, of course,
be rid of it by assigning suitable colours to backgrounds. But I
would rather like to understand what is going on here. The body
or html element is white by default and it presumably is shining
through. What is it shining through, precisely, if anything?
I put a green (#CFC ) background for #navStrip in the css to try
to find out what exactly it is that is white! It does not show up
- except, surprise, surprise, in what we might as well call a
deprecated browser (IE 5 Mac) and then only covering the top
white space above the menu strip, not the bottom! In all my
modern browsers there is just the white space.
I tried this green bg to various things to try to track down what
is going on but so far have failed. Any ideas?
Is the inline link mark up and css not kosher? I don't know.
