[thelist] CSS Tip, for the helluvit

[Ben Henick]

No doubt my balance of tips is less-than-admirable, so I'll contribute
something that I just discovered.

<tip type="CSS: float" author="Ben Henick">
Those of you who've tried to align images properly in NN4 know that NN4's
handling of the float property in normal CSS leaves a great deal to be
desired (hehe).

So, you link to an external stylesheet (type=css/javascript) containing
the following statement:

document.classes.Whatever.all.align = "right";
//'Whatever' is replaced with the identifier of your choice, as is the 
//supplied argument

Just make sure to put your images inside the appropriate DIV.
</tip>

When I applied this in NN4.5 it worked beautifully.

God, I hate Netscape 4.

Now I'll nip off and start applying these changes across the site I'm
building.  Yum.
