Default More IE/Mac Issues - 11-16-2004 , 06:08 AM






Can anyone guide me with my horizontal list? It works fine in Firefox and IE
PC, but fails on IE/Mac.

http://www.dmcupdate.com/index.asp its the footer menu that should be a
horizontal list. Any clever ideas?

Cheers,

Steve

Try deleting float: left; from the #footer and substitute it with
display: inline;




#footer li{

display: inline;

list-style-type: none;

margin: 0 0 1em;

padding: 2;

white-space: nowrap;

}




Then include the copyright info within a <li></li> tag and set its
margin left (see below)


<div id="footer">

<ul>

<li><a href="http://www.dmcupdate.com/terms.asp">Terms of Use</a></li>

<li><a href="http://www.dmcupdate.com/privacy.asp">Privacy
Policy</a></li>

<li><a href="http://www.dmcupdate.com/contact.asp">Contact Us</a></li>

<li><a href="http://www.dmcupdate.com/advertising.asp">Advertising

<li style="padding-left: 30px;">&copy;2004 DMC Limited - All Rights

</ul>

</div>

Hi Osgood, thank you for the solution, its starting to look great.

Are you saying I should create a seperate class for the copyright info,
setting the padding left?

As the footer I assumes appears in all of your pages I would suggest its
probably a good idea since if you want to move the info a bit further
left/right at any time it's easily achieved.

I didnt test the solution in PC, only on Mac in IE5.2/Safrai and Firefox
were it seemed to work ok. Creating good horizontal menus using <ul><li>
tags can be somewhat troublesome. I try to avoid them if it's possible.

Hi Osgood, could I take it out of the list and just format it using CSS? I
dont see why not, but since this is wroking nicely on all browsers and
platforms I will stick with it.

Thanks again for your help!

I see no reason why you could'nt take it out of the list if you can get
it working by another method.
