(This posting replaces the previous one, which had a typo in the subject line) I need to install Office 2007 on my PC, but I also need to keep an old copy of Powerpoint 2003 on there, so I can review and proofread presentations for my clients who refuse to upgrade. Several IT experts have told...

Thanks, Matzki. That seemed to work great! Much appreciated. -- Chuckdesign :-)

I have had no serious problems using Quark 6.5 on OS 10.4, aside from (as Marcus said) the usual problems of crashes, font conflicts, etc. -- Chuckdesign :-)

I was working on several documents using New Century Schoolbook (OpenType font), and Quark 6.5 did a fine job flowing the text and exporting PDFs. The next day, I went into the same documents and could not open them -- QXP crashed upon opening the docs. After disabling the font in Suitcase X1...

Thanks, Dan, for the advice. I converted the navigation DIVs to CLASSes, but I've lost my left-indent and now the red background layer is tiling where it shouldn't. I haven't been able to troubleshoot this yet. And I still have too much vertical spacing in IE/Win. I even deleted all the spaces...

Anybody know of a CSS hack to reduce the spacing in an unnumbered list and a paragraph in IE/Windows? The list I'm referring to is on this page: http://home.comcast.net/~cprovancher/sia/snec/upcoming.html The CSS is at: http://home.comcast.net/~cprovancher/sia/snec/sia-site.css The left-hand...

Using Dreamweaver 8, I have slaved over a page that is built almost entirely out of CSS, including dropdown menus. I'm very excited that the page seems to work beautifully in all browsers. Since my client is going to be updating the site using Contribute 3.1, I figured I'd test the homepage in...

That was easy. Thanks for the tip! -- Chuckdesign :-)

Vragabond, THANK YOU for your quick and dirty tips. The display: inline; was just what I needed to get the navigation working, and shaving that pixel off the right column fixed that problem too. I'm still stumped as to how to take out the extra space under my header in IE/Win. Resizing the...

I've built a CSS-based page that holds together beautifully in Firefox for Windows and Mac, IE for Mac, and Safari. But in IE 6 for Windows, all hell breaks loose: Too much spacing around my navigation buttons and header, and my type size is way too big. Please see...

I don't mind the Flash if used sparingly, but I think it goes on for too long. It's best used as an attention-grabber, and it does that... but then it loses me because it goes on too long. I'd limit it to about 8 seconds or so, max. From a graphics standpoint (I haven't looked at your code), I...

I'm struggling to get a page template so that the items line up in all browsers. The pages are supposed to look like this: http://www.sullivancreative.com/paa-05-7-19/services.jpg If I use absolute positoning on the right-hand photo and quotation paragraph, it looks OK in IE/Windows, but the...

Thanks, Dan, but that didn't quite fix it. The problem was that I had closed the ending "homepageimage" div in the wrong place. Once I moved up the closing </div> tag so it followed the "homepageimage" JPEG (instead of at the end of the document), the right column started behaving. See...

I've build a page looks OK in IE/Windows, Firefox/Windows, Firefox/Mac, and Safari/Mac, but it breaks apart in IE/Mac. I've heard that IE has problems, and I've experimented with trying to use a workaround, including the so-called "box model hack," to no avail. Can anyone offer any advice on...

I've already fixed it, thanks. The solution was to delete the <BR>s after each button, and add this at the end of the CSS: img { display: block; } That took care of the extra spacing! -- Chuckdesign :-)

I am building a blog page that uses a lot of CSS (mostly borrwed from a Blogger template that I'm adapting for my use). For some reason I can't figure out, all of the items separated by <BR> seem to have extra space above them. At various points, I've tried troubleshooting by removing all...

I've created some bulleted lists using <ul> and <li>. Using "line-style-image" in CSS, I've replaced the standard bullet with a GIF of a little red square. It looks great in all browsers except in IE 5 for Mac, where the bullet graphics float about half-a-line too high. Of course, my boss uses...

I found that if I re-ordered the JavaScripts, then it worked fine in IE 5.2 as well as the rest of the browsers. Thanks! -- Chuckdesign :-)

I have spent hours creating and (I thought) perfecting a series of pop-up menus in Dreamweaver MX 2004, so when you roll over some CSS-styled text a pop-up will appear. The links are in a template file, which I know can be problematic except that I followed the directions and made the popups...

Thanks, Vragabond! I changed the order of the pseudo classes in the CSS file to what you suggested, and now it works beautifully in IE 5 (Mac) and in Firefox (Mac). That was a big help! :-D Chuck -- Chuckdesign :-)
