Firefox vs. IE6!?

[LeetPCUser]

So I am making a site right now, working on it for my school, and we used auto adjusting borders with min-height: 100%; and we are using css styles. For some reason IE6 loves it and firefox does not respond to it. The person I am working with does not want to have tables. Is there a way to make an auto adjusting 2 px black border to go around a page that will work in both IE6 and firefox without tables?

could you use a div tag?

yea using CSS you can give border easily, if you like to pay me by NP$ few then i will provide you that CSS.

I already got it. I really don't understand why people always want NP$ to fix the problem. Honestly I find it quite overwhelming when people continuously demmand NP$. That is one turnoff that has made me use this site less and google more. Do you find it your right to ask for NP$ because everyone else does? Does it ever occur to you if you help people they might tip you? I would be more inclined to tip someone that did it for free rather than pay someone up front and get the code. Usually the people that do it for free get more and they help out better by telling the people what the code does.

First off, glad you found a fix - CSS is blessing for webmasters.

However, did it ever occur to you that you pay for goods and services in life? People helping out other people is a choice and not an obligation. Many people won't offer a tip (sadly enough) for someone helping them out so people tend to ask for it. Afterall, they're providing a service for someone on their own time. NP$ is a small price to ask IMHO since you can get it just by posting.

Touche. Couldn't agree more.

see, I'm not like that, if I have the answer to something simple like this, I will be kind and helpful.

What if oxfam demanded cash off Africa everytime they went and built a school there? Or what if RJ demanded cash everytime you used his bandwidth?

You gotta put things in perspective. For a simple, 1 line piece of css you shouldn't have to pay for that. People should be kind enough to present the correct information without that. Its social, and kind. What is the world coming to that we need to pay for everything now!

I am glad you got it, and without having to pay for it too!

I prefer IE6 myself, it seems to be a lot quicker. However Firefox IS more secure.

FireFox doesn't run broken code. IE does.

Firefox shows CSS code exactly how it should, whereas IE shows CSS code exactly how it thinks it should
