I am working on a site for Mason where he can record his adventures rebuilding a Morgan with his father-in-law. The design is going alright, and I have only two gripes.
- First, IE, of course it begins with IE, expands container elements to fit floated content. So the car, rather than bursting from the title bar in a flash of red, sits squarely inside an enormous header. I have found reference to this (the expanding box trick) on Position is Everything, but not how to fix it. I know, I should just get over it and splice the image in two, but I don’t want to!
- I don’t love the buttons on the right side. They’ve been changed about a million times, but I still haven’t come up with something that makes me happy.
I don’t really want to use some hack to fix the former. Often they seem to create as many problems as they fix.
