Re: Newbie question re CSS margins in IE

um...duh.

From my original post....

"Can someone please point me in the direction of a workaround?"

It's really annoying when people respond to newsgroups questions to which
they don't know the answer... :-(

Lets refer back to your original (annoying) statement,

"Almost certainly, the solution to your real problem is simple"

It wouldn't seem that it's that simple to you now, would it??

With neither quill nor qualm, damiensawyer@xxxxxxxxxxxx quothed:

I need it to be full width with less text for page layout and
formatting.

I would like to have a panel that displays at full width whether there
is text in it or not. Sometimes there will be, sometimes there won't
be. Surely the layout of the form/page shouldn't change if there is no
text in it?

A url would help. Almost certainly, the solution to your real problem
is simple.

Please forgive me, but why do you need a URL?? I realise that a sample
can be extremely important in solving these issues, and, accordingly, I
have provided a full sample below. All that you need to do is save it
to a sample.html file and open it in a browser. All of about 10 seconds
work.

I chose to do it this way because, as this is a Usenet post, it will be
archived and searchable by many people for many years - long after the
URL you requested of me would have been removed. This way, there is a
permanent record of the question (and hopefully a solution) for those
many people over those many years.

I don't understand what you mean by "Almost certainly, the solution to
your real problem is simple". Can you please ellaborate? Or maybe tell
me this simple solution?

Thanks very much in advance,

Ie6 doesn't handle the following correctly:

position:absolute;
left:100px;
right:10px;

You need a workaround.
