NetNanny blocks access to any sites on its blacklist
· It blocks pages containing over four words that are on NetNanny’s list of objectionable words.
· It masks objectionable words on web sites, IRC chat rooms, news groups and plain text emails, replacing letters with ####.
Hmm. I'm pretty sure it's not a keyword thing -- most of the page blocked is names. And honestly, as much as I'd giggle to think I'd made their radar -- puh-lease.
Weird.
Mythical Motorola/Apple iPod phone maybe will happen for real: [link]
"The Always With You mobile handsets will be able to carry about a dozen iTunes songs downloaded from a PC or Macintosh starting in the first half of next year."
That's like the dark ages of CDs.
CSS is eating my brain. I have styled my links thusly:
a { color : #000000; background-color : transparent; text-decoration : none; }
a:link, a:visited { border-bottom : 1px dotted #000000; }
All the text looks just fine. But I have a picture that is a link, that's in a div styled thusly:
#picture { border: none; }
Whis is in a div styled thusly:
#pictureblock {
text-align:center;
margin:0px auto;
border-width: thin;
border-style: groove;
border-color: black;
}
I'd hoped the border:none would get rid of the underline, but not. My hierarchy seems off. I want to accomplish this change in the CSS, not in the HTML, since I'm sharing the HTML. What am I missing?
So...Apple sues to stop product leaks.

That doesn't work, amych. I also tried
a.picture:link { border-style : none}
and
a:link#picture { border-style : none}
and
a#picture:link { border-style : none}
and
a:link.picture { border-style : none}
and even
a.picture { border-style : none}
While I was at it, but nothing. Still bordered.
You're right. That's what I get for suggesting off the top of my head.
Try
#picture a { border: none; }
Which works in Firefox/Win2K. Haven't played with it in any other browsers.
Bless you! One of these days I'll read the entire CSS spec in order. I'm sure I've covered it by bits and pieces, but inheritance just never sticks that way.
To think it was just
two
characters off from where I was.
Now my page is all tidy and stuff.
