My example was just to demonstrate, how *valid* HTML would look like. And of course this may cause layout issues which have to be fixed as well. Feel free to show a better solution using valid HTML code, I'm always willing to learn from good examples. And no - valid HTML is not "perfection" it's just the baseline from which a website has to start. -- Arno Welzel https://arnowelzel.de
