Always done what?

If the rule is .orange a:link {...} and the HTML is <a class="orange"...,
then the rule will not be applied to that link, since the a is not in a
container styled with orange.

Why? He posted the URL, that's enough.

Then you don't know you code well enough. :O) And again, when that page is
removed, it is gone forever. We're looking at long time solutions, not 'way
too much work'. In 10 months, Centering CSS for IE 5 will still be an
issue, but if the page has been removed, then the post is rendered useless.
If the code is contained in the post and archived by google for the ages,
you're a done duck.

yeah, i feel that way about rants. ;o) (jjk)

and done so by the TMM's or the power users of the group when the legwork
SHOULD be done by the knowledgeless poster who was asking the question.
IMO, the volunteer who is helping is more valuable than the person askign
the question. If the person asking can quickly post the code, great. If they
don't, then the volunteer has to and more time is wasted that could be spent
answering other ng questions.

or I'm just being lazy, take yer pick. :O) (and take my posts with a grain
of salt)
