Re: Firefox & IE - CSS

[Karen Mulholland <kemulholland -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

Hello, Elizabeth - 

I recently noticed that Firefox and IE don't handle
CSS  the same way. I ended up changing the HTML on a
product documentation CD because Firefox seemed to
completely ignore the CSS file. 

In the HTML files, I replaced the link to the CSS with
the actual CSS data, and this made the pages display
the same way in both IE and Firefox.

It's a dreadfully inelegant solution, but it's a
solution nonetheless.

Yours in HTML klugery,

Karen
