HR - Firefox - IE7 2

[MarkZK]

Hi,

Using this HTML/CSS code,

<hr style="color:green">

the HR does show as green in IE7 but doesn't in FF2.0, as Firefox is nomally right, what am I doing wrong ?

just to note, <hr color="green"> works in both but isn't valid.

Thanks for your time.

I suggest you read this on differences in rendering hr element across browsers:

Which properties work

Various CSS properties can be applied on <hr>:

* All three browsers allow setting width and height of the <hr> element.
* The border property can be used in IE and Mozilla. It does not work well in Opera (see examples below).
* IE uses the color property for the <hr> element.
* Opera and Mozilla use background-color for the <hr> element.
* All three browser allow setting a background-image of the <hr> element, however this is not very useful in IE and Opera (see the last example).
