The message and subject are in bold and for unread messages, and the background is white for unread and grey for read messages. This is pretty far from invisible. How does it look on Windows? -- The problem with socialism is there's always someone with less ability and more need.

In both IE for the Mac (back when I still used that as a browser on a Mac) and on Windows, the background is a much darker blue (much more blue than grey) for read messages than what I see on any of the bowsers I have seen on the Mac. By contrast I find what shows up in Safari and Firefox on the Mac I have to be very difficult to see. -- Please note this e-mail address is a pit of spam due to e-mail address harvesters on Usenet.

I think it is more of a user setting than a browser difference, looks the same in my SeaMonkey v IE. <http://www.littleworksstudio.com/temp/usenet/smvie.jpg> Now IE does have a tendency to make text "bolder" than other browsers which may be from that ClearType feature. -- Take care, Jonathan ------------------- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com

The other advantage of SVN is that strange people and other creatures sometimes emerge from the Tardis when you least expect it. Far more troubling than just wonky HTML! -- Rhino |
