| Common Coding Problems: Part Seven | 15-Dec-04 |

| Category: CSS, HTML | |
| Description: In this, the seventh entry in our 'gotchas' series of Common (and not so common) Coding Problems, we will look at several things that could leave you scratching your head if you encounter them. First, we examine how to make space around floats by using the margin property on the correct element. Next, we will check out a bug that Gecko browsers have with lists next to floats that you'll want to know about. Finally, we'll look at several bugs in Internet Explorer that have to do with absolute positioning: Escaping AP elements, text selection bugs, and width bugs with absloutely positioned elements. And we're off! | |
