Hi all, This is going to sound incredibly stupid. I just think my mind is giving up. I have a background image for my entire navigation bar (vertical). Then, I also have an image that is for each menu item hover: http://fossilbyte.com/1/images/arrowhead.gif (I know that it appears reall

Is there a way to get the following visual style: *This is the header* This is the rest of the paragraph here. As you can see the header is inline visually. Visually, this works by setting the h2 to be inline. [p][h2]header[/h2] etc etc[/p] But is invalid. The valid solution I came up with is

That's good to know. I guess it's not surprising; it is, however, rather disconcerting. My basic instinct is to set the base at 10px, simply so i can work in units that I'm used to. If everything is multiples of ten it makes ems a much more intelligible unit too. I guess I've been going about t
