    That is correct; there is no current CSS solution. You would need to use tables or scripts.

    CSS Help

    I don't have IE5 running either, although the site did work with Opera 7.0 build 2637 (and of course the html & CSS pages were validated). I made a lot of changes to your CSS code Tim. It made it easier for me to work with the data.

    Creating one table for this type of setup is perfect. It allows you to center your entire site without letting the width change.

    The Antec Truepower series is reasonably quiet, albeit, not silent.

    Why do Socket 939 Boards suck so much?

    It's like buying any s939 CPU when a Sempron provides plenty of headroom for the user.

    REVIEW: "3 SATA-II Hard Drives Reviewed"

    The HD160JJ is the SP80SD family - SP80 family using three platters and a SATAII interface. It isn't from the higher areal density SP120 family.

    Why do Socket 939 Boards suck so much?

    Greg, That jump in CPU price could also be caused by two different core sizes, one being the older 130nm core and the other the newer 90nm core. If I was looking for a newer chipset based AGP motherboard, I would probably have skipped the nForce3 and used the VIA K8T800 Pro chipset, like the...

    For some reason I don't remember that, but if any lake suddenly drops its level, I'd be worried. The water went somewhere underground.

    REVIEW: "3 SATA-II Hard Drives Reviewed"

    It would be nice if a review site would get three prime drives from three different manufactures with equal platter density and cache size, for their comparison. Oh, and use good benchmarks too. :D

    Based on this post and your previous one, GDISK was recommended for speed. When you have a blank (write zeros to if you need) disk and boot from a Windows XP Professional (or Home) CD (non-upgrade), when it comes time to partition and format, the options read: Format the partition using the...

    Quakes galore

    Interestingly, I live in a high-risk zone for earthquakes, yet there can easily be a few years between them. However, after living here for decades, it is normal to have earthquakes. As a matter of fact, if we don't have them for a while, I hear people saying 'it's time for another earthquake'...

    Why do Socket 939 Boards suck so much?

    Outside of my usual business-class machines that I build, I'm putting together a home machine that needs a few of the extra bells and whistles for media stuff and some games. They're also interested in a little . . . what's the new phrase now, Bling-Bling? So, I went with an Antec Sonata case...

    DECENT sub-$300 PCs are a reality

    I haven't had any problems with the 250w or 300w units. In the past, I've even used them as replacement PSUs. The only Allied PSU that gave me a problem was with a recent customer that had electrical problems. It killed her PSU, motherboard, and video card. She's the one that prompted me to...

    DECENT sub-$300 PCs are a reality

    The Apex 100G2 case has worked well for me as an inexpensive but competent enclosure. It comes with a 300w Allied PSU and sells for around $40.00.

    WHY DON'T I LISTEN TO YOU GUYS SOMETIMES???

    No point, just do a Quick Format in XP, it's the same thing. The difference between a regular Format and a Quick Format is that a regular format spends the time to do a read verify of every sector - other then that, they're the same.

    What anti-spyware anti-adware combos do you use nowadays?

    I was under the impression that you were talking about AV TSRs. That's a given; accidents occassionally happen but I'm sure that we're all intelligent enough to keep our machines quite safe. I haven't seen any of this bugginess. As far as being invasive, my initial reaction was identical...

    This only works if all of your customers follow each process exactly the way you would - terribly unrealistic! It doesn't matter how much you train, lecture, or scold them.

    I've been very successful with Giant/MS antispyware, plus Adaware (certainly nice for deleting MRUs). When it comes to fee based options Spy Assassin has been very good. Thanks for the information Tannin, I'll have to give HijackThis a try.
