Warning: This is a 'get it off my chest' e-mail.

Well, I am going to give up with CSS. I am sure ZStylesheet is a fine product, its just that CSS implementations lets it down.

I have struggled for ages to get anything more sophisticated than font-family* to work on both IE5 and Netscape 4.6 - no chance. It seems they have both implemented CSS from a different hymn sheet :-( Basically, nothing to do with sizes works the same, and it boils down to Netscape ignoring the inheritance model of CSS. table rows and cells are a particular mystery.

If anyone has cracked it and has developed a ZStylesheet which can second guess both browsers, please let me know. Until then, I will go back to using <font sizeng things to worry about.

Regards

Neil

*even font-family doesn't work for the BODY selector. Tables in Netscape ignore it so you have to use BODY TR TD as the selector.
