Does anyone know how http://www.freshmeat.net gets their CSS code to look identical in IE and Netscape (including Linux)?????

It's really bugging me!

Oh and can anyone recommend a good HTML reference book? If it's worth buying one.

Thanks

Here's an interesting idea for that. This is what I use on my site for coding:
Create a script tag, then put this code in:
bName = navigator.appName;
bVer = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (bName == "Netscape" && bVer >= 4) br = "n4";
else if (bName == "Netscape" && bVer == 3) br = "n3";
else if (bName == "Netscape" && bVer == 2) br = "n2";
else if (bName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && bVer >= 4)
br = "e4";
else if (bName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") br = "e3";
else br = "n2";

What this does is check the browser name and browser version. This enables you to program for a specific browser. An example:
A page for detecting the browser:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT>
bName = navigator.appName;
bVer = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (bName == "Netscape" && bVer >= 4) br = "n4";
else if (bName == "Netscape" && bVer == 3) br = "n3";
else if (bName == "Netscape" && bVer == 2) br = "n2";
else if (bName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && bVer >= 4)
br = "e4";
else if (bName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") br = "e3";
else br = "n2";
</script>
<STYLE>
#div { position: absolute; left: 100; top: 100; }
</STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
if (br == "e4" | | br == "e3") {
document.write("<DIV ID='div'>" + "CSS content in Internet Explorer 4.0 and Above!" + "</DIV>");
if (br == "n4")
document.write("<layer name='div' left='100' top='100'>" + "CSS content in Netscape 4.0 and Above!" + "</layer>");
</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
</HTML>

This page will print CSS depending on the browser. You can also do this in the body, script, and get rid of the style tag:
if (br == "e4") {
window.location.href="e4.html";
}
if (br == "n4") {
window.location.href="n4.html";
}

That will relocate the user depending on browser.
I hope that solved your problem. If it didn't just post back and I'll try to get to it tomorrow.
