    CSS auto value

    Haha no worries. Basically this: div{ color:red; height:auto;} is the same as: div{ color:red;} unless you have this: div{ color:red; height:250px;}div{ height:auto; /* This overwrites the 250px height up there */}

    ie7, z-index, and an unclickable button. would be grateful of enlightenment!

    Okay I'm not suer if this will fix your exact problem but what you have to remember with z-index in IE7 is this: An img with z-index 9 inside a div with z-index 2 will still sit below a div with z-index 3. It works based on parents, rather than elements. 3 is the highest element here...

    corporate body fonts

    Well ideally you'd pick one that would work on the web and print so as to maintain consistency. I'm currently in love with Calibri which works well as both. However it's not a Mac font…

    corporate body fonts

    For the web? That'll be a tough one as a corporate face would rarely be used for anything other than display, and a display face as body copy is a pretty poor idea. If you're setting up new branding then use a decent face for display (something on Typekit maybe?) and just use...

    No worries. Thanks and thanks! Fixed :D

    HTML5 - Slow?

    HTML5 - Slow?
