Those two certainly don’t make your work easy. Whenever you float a div inside another div and also use negative margin, IE thinks it’s fun to not display it at all, unless you add position:relative; to the floated div. Only the newest version can cope without that. I suppose they still make some progress when developing it :).

When you have a link and a list in another list’s element like so:

<ul>
…
<li>
<a…>
<ul><li…>…<li…></u>
</li>
…
</ul>

… then you have to tell IE that it should display a-tag as block or else they end up on the same line. But if I remember it correct then IE6 couldn’t tackle my menu hovering at all, whereas IE7 does it well with some tweaking.
Oh and if any one of you has an idea why 10em border and 10em sidebar don’t have equal width in IE and Opera, do share your wisdom.

I felt that I needed a sidebar again. It is broken at some pages though because I can’t figure out where the problem lies. I expect it to look like it does on blog’s main page exept for that input. That is with Firefox 2.0.0.1. I also plan to add a blogroll. All opinions welcome.

Edit: Defining a width for an element can make things better. Since I had just content div without any div beside it worked, but after adding sidebar with negative margin, it just didn’t cut it anymore. Now I need to figure out input and test IE and Opera as well.

I started learning php and I’m therefore recovering my sql knowledge from the dust as well. But it makes no sense to just read some tutorial about making a contact form or something like that when I don’t need one.
I want to learn basic php, including cookies, sessions and communicating with MySQL database (later probably rss writing and dealing with text files) but in order to do that I need an idea of whatever I’m building and what for. I once had a very vague idea about some crossword site, but I never took the time to define it properly, so I might do that.
But all other ideas are very much appreciated.
