CSS 1px dashed #fff line error

This is a report i have from the check browser support tool on Dreamweaver and it says that :

Warning Value 'dashed' is not supported for CSS property border-bottom ( included border top, and all kind of border )

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0

line 33 #mainNav #boxul { text-align: right; display: block; width: 100%; height: 100%; border-top: 1px dashed #676767; border-bottom: 1px dashed #676767; background-color: #FEFEF3; }

If anybody can tell me whether this is a dangerous position or just a sorrow of IE eheh
thanks !

 

I don't think it's generally supported, I used dashed as a 1px border but ran it through HTML checkers and had the same problem.

Recommend removing it and perhaps replacing it with a background graphic instead?

 

Thanks for replying , yeah actually i fixed the problem. I still use dashed, i checked with opera, mozilla, firefox, ie6 and ff and its working fine.

Stunning

 

Aye, but you didn't check in IE5. Which is where the error would occur. IE5 does not support dotted or dashed lines.

You can't please all of the people all of the time...

 

okay but it's in my culture though lol to please hihi. Ok i'll try
IE5 doesnt support that dashed or dotted line but i think its ok though on W3schoold browser statistics they say 5.5% of the people use IE5 nowadays

IE 5 Stats @ W3Schools

 

Not that I don't agree, but those statistics are hardly relevant to the real world. They apply to people who visit w3schools. Not the entire internet.

Even so - using those stats:
5.5%*280million N.A. users alone. = 15.4million people in N.A. on IE5...

That's a lot of people

That said; It's a nonissue.

 

You could simply feed a style specifically to IE5 that makes the line solid rather than dashed.

<!--[if IE 5]>
<link href="ie5.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">
<![endif]-->

Code (markup):

 

hum... hum... i didnt see it from that angle.

And i will follow the idea of feellikeanut for the border line.
