Aycan,

I'm looking for a good reference site for dealing with issues with the layout in IE looking as it should in Netscape. Any suggestions ? I've searched myself but am not happy with my results so far.

Also, on the same topic - I'm trying to use an href tag to call a whole table cell to a particular link, an example :

<a href="http://www.example.com"><td>Example Whole Cell</td></a>

This works great in IE but doesn't work with Netscape. Do you know of a way around this ?

Myzer.

You didn't mention the version of Netscape. Is it 4 or 6?

The following code should do the trick for Netscape 6. I don't know how to do it with Netscape 4 though.

<td onclick='window.open("http://www.example.com", "_self")'>
Example Whole Cell</td>

When designing, it is better to code for mozilla based browsers and then tweak the design to get it to work in IE. Mozilla more closely adheres to the W3C specs so if you write standards complient code then the page should work fine in Mozilla. There are a few well known treaks such as the Box Model Hack and the Child Selector Hack which can be used to hide styles from IE.
