IE's CSS tags problem

[draigGoch]

I have a css which has the following:

banner{
background-image: url(blue/banner.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top center;
color: Black;
font-size:50px;
font-weight:bold;
background-color: #99ccff;
padding-top:8px;
padding-right: 300px; padding-left: 200px;
padding-bottom: 1px;
border-top: 5px ridge #4C90BF;
}

when I use the tags <banner> it works in Firefox, but not in IE. Any suggestions?

I suggest you stop using <banner> and find a more supported tag. If you do some googling you will find many many sites discussing the lack of support of this tag.

Until this thread I had never even heard of it.

Cheers,
Jeff

I would consider using a DIV element with a CSS position of "fixed". For IE, you could use an expression to keep the banner positioned.

Hope this helps,

I'm new to CSS so not sure how to use the Div thing, but I managed to pull it off using classes (i think), using #header, then using this as an id to an element in the html.

Thanks
