I keep running into this problem when working on a script. I once had a solution for it but can not find it. Basically my box is not showing properly in IE and Firefox. I remember the code basically had some "/" or something in them that made it only readable by IE and then you could have a second width just for IE to make it fit.

For the life of me I can not find it though. Any assistance would be appreciated.

I *THINK* something like this is what you want:

Quote:
div.content {
width:400px;
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family:inherit;
width:300px;
}


Obviously adapt it to met the needs of your particular box. The first width would be the one used for everything else, the second one for IE. It basically takes advantage of a bug in IE to overwrite the width.

Thank you for the response Twinkle! I had found it elsewhere and it works fine, I just hope the new versions of IE do not have these same compatibility issues, it is a pain when IE does not follow the standards.
