Do we know that all browsers will actually render an empty <div>, with no
contents, more or less like a horizontal line?
I don't know it, because I don't use all browsers ;) I only tested it
in the following browsers:
- MS IE 6.0
- Opera 9.00
- Mozilla 1.7.6
- Firefox 1.0.2 (Linux) and 1.5.0.4 (Windows)
- Konqueror 3.3.2
- Galeon 1.3.21
and all of them render an empty <div> tag properly.
Is a HTML/CSS expert here? ;)
Try lynx and links...
Me and my users don't use text browsers, but I've tried them
(lynx 2.8.5 and elinks 0.10.4).
They really don't render empty <div> tag like a horizontal line,
because they don't support CSS or do it poorly. Is it a reason
to abandon CSS?
I also don't care about lynx and links, because they have
problems with frames and JavaScript.
IMHO the <hr> tags aren't necessary to separate groups of elements
on the page. The one or two empty lines are sufficient.
Of course, the Sqwebmail is owned by Mr Sam, so I have to
respect his choices.
My best regards,

Sqwebmail roadmad states to keep compatibility with text browsers. As long
as that is kept, you've stuck with hr tags, if wanting a horisontal line.
Giving that up, opens a huge area of possibilities. The zeta interface
takes advantage of css and javascripting. The project is taking a breath
while I'm busy renovating my house, but any help is highly appreciated.
Several platform specific problems have recently been solved, but the
sources are not uploaded yet.
No hr tags, no hardcoded colors, no tables!
