Stupid Mac IE5 and CSS HELP!

[obelix]

Ok I've been trying for hours to get my CSS working with IE (of course it works flawlessly with camino, safari, firefox, netscape) but I just can't seem to get the css-background to work with the version of IE included with the Mac. Does anyone know how to workaround this issue:

		.mainImage 
		{
		border-color: #000000;
		border-bottom: solid;
		border-left: dotted;
		border-right: dotted;
		border-width: 1px;
		border-top: none;
		background-image:	url('stables_concept5.jpg');
		background-repeat: no-repeat;
		background-attachment: fixed;
		}

and then the call...

	<td class="mainImage" height="350" colspan="3"> </td>

Why bother? You have to cut your losses and since you're already supporting 80 or 90% of Mac users, just forget about it. Same as the IE-only developers who write only for IE.

Will it work in IE on windows? Not many windows users still use 5, most use 6...
exact numbers, for the hell of it.

I haven't checked recently, as I've not got IE5 on this Mac, but last time I checked, even Microsoft had dropped IE5 Mac support on their own websites. (the redesigned msn page was completely broken; I don't know if it still is - if it is, then you shouldn't have to worry about supporting it)

Man, I had that same problem. Drove me up the wall. I have your fix though 😉 Take out the quotes
