The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

CSS issues in IE6 & IE7 - margin-top, padding-top, & line-height attributes being ignored

Asked by egoselfaxis in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Internet Explorer Web Browser, Extensible HTML (XHTML)

Tags: XHTML, HTML, CSS, Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 7, ie6, ie7

The top Home icon, About Us, & Contact Us links on the upper right of my pages are displaying exactly the way I want them to in Firefox, Safari, and the new Chrome browser from google:

http://72.52.247.122/~homeland/group.html  

However, .. I can't seem to apply margin-top, padding-top, & line-height attributes to the About Us and Contact Us links in neither IE6 nor IE7.  Right now, I have line-height attributes applied to the 2 hyperlinks, .. which is being rendered correctly in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome:

#topheader_homelinks a:link,a:visited {
      color:#828282;
      line-height:22px;
}

#topheader_homelinks a:hover,a:active {
      color:#C0A771;      
      border-bottom:1px dashed #165f9e;
      line-height:22px;
}

What can I do to fix this? If possible, I'd like for those top links to display the same in IE6 & IE7 as they do in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome.

Also -- one other small problem:

In IE6 & IE7, .. I can't seem to get rid of the bottom border that's displayed on hover when you mouseover the home icon (Again, I don't have this problem in either Firefox, Safari, or Chrome.

I have a .noborder class assigned to that link, .. but it seems to be being ignored in IE:  

.noborder {
      border-bottom:0px;
}

How might I correct this?

Thanks in advance,
- Yvan
