In that case, the zoom thing becomes more important than I
thought. (I thought a lot of people are not on XP SP2?) Anyway,
what else can I do. Maybe Bootnic's margins are important! Better
have another fiddle. Thanks for going to the trouble of picturing
the 150%. Yes, no good eh...
It is all this mucking about that makes me wanna go back to the
simple original presentational mark up with and upright
slash. The truth is that there is no maintainence problem with my
footers to speak of (esp as they are to "included" via php). If i
keep having probs, I go back to original (and - see other post -
too bad for spacing prob in iCab)
