works in IE but not FF

i have in the html file

with

in the css file

...in ie, all goes as supposed to. but in ff, the color is not displayed as i specified it in the css!?!?!?!?!?

 

color attribute is for text. Try background-color

I can't say it'll definately work because I never use HR but it's worth a shot.

 

You have a syntax error because you didn't specify a unit for the height. 1 INCH? 1 PIXEL? 1 MM?

 

soulscratch is right...

you need to tell it what mesurement to use px, pt, in, cm, mm, pc, em, ex and %... because its just getting confused.

E.G.
hr {
height: 1px;
width: 90%;
color: #C0D0E0;
}

This should solved your problem

 

Actually you'd have to put a background color as well.. and you might run into some crap in IE where font-size:0 will fix the height.

 

Usually when your code works in IE6 but not in FF means that you might wanna look into your code again.

 

yeah...

i put in

hr {
height: 1px;
width: 90%;
background-color: #C0D0E0;
}

...and it still DOESN'T work!!!
what could it possible be?

 

wow..that was usefull stuff..

 

This will work...

hr{
color:#f00;
background-color:#f00;
height:1px;
border:none;
}

Code (markup):

You need to set the foreground and the background. Foreground for IE and background for FF. You need height also for opera. border:none is for FF again.
