Dear ciwah,
I'm in the process of designing a German school web site, and I need the
help of you experts.
I wrote the navigation (CSS based, no javascript), which looks OK in IE,
Firefox and Opera.
Now I would like to place a picture at the outer right side of the
navigation bar, and this is where it gets tricky. I experimented with a
div container, I tried using a layer, but the design always turned out
look differently in these three browsers.
Now, must I give up the idea or has anyone of you specialists a clue as
to how to solve my problem?
I uploaded a test page including a picture to illustrate the design I
have in mind:
http://www.majaeger.de/site/test/test.htm
http://www.majaeger.de/test/style.css gives you my style sheet.
Thanks for taking your time to look into my problem,
Mike

Thats why it is called quirks mode.

Use strict doctype to tricker standards mode, and put your image before
navigation menu and float it to right.
You shoudl remarkup your page, it contains all sorts of stupid things:
<h1> </h1>
<p class="nav">Gymnasium Burgdorf</p>
You also have marked up the second list of links as paragraph, which it
clearly is not. Use div or ul.

thanks for your valuable suggestions. I changed the doc type into strict
mode, but, unfortunately, this does not seem to solve my problem since
the div container placed before the navigation menu tears apart the
whole strucure. It looks awful in all three browsers :-(

I know, and thanks for the remark, but this does not concern the
question at hand at the moment. I'll turn to them later, because this
page needs to be filled with information anyway.
> <p class="nav">Gymnasium Burgdorf</p>
Well, I could use "id", couldn't I?

Thanks for your help, I'll sit down now and try to make it work.

Hm. It works just fine on Opera (7.6p4b) here. New URL?

Well, it sure looks h1 to me... Might be div too. But I wouldn't call it
paragraph...

Hai Lauri,
I tried a div container and a layer without success.
See the follwojg urls:
http://www.majaeger.de/site/test/testdiv.htm
http://www.majaeger.de/site/test/testlayer.htm
They look OK in the IE, but don't in Opera and Mozilla.
What did I do wrong?
>>> <p class="nav">Gymnasium Burgdorf</p>
>>
>> Well, I could use "id", couldn't I?
>

You're right, it's a paragraph, and I'll turn it into a list, which
seems the right choice.
I appreciate any further assistance,
Mike
