text-transform problem in ie5

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 04.2005

I’ve started altering my css to shorthand for the font declaration, as for some reason it was the only one I hadn’t condensed. However as I have been doing it I have noticed that ie5 has a problem when text-transform is declared with the same element. For example using the code below means that in ie5 the text isn’t transformed into uppercase. And I don’t know why.

[CODE]
p {
text-transform:uppercase;
font:700 140% “Trebuchet MS”, verdana, sans-serif;
}
[/CODE]

But if I whip out the font-size (140%) and declare it separately it renders correctly. Anyone know why this is happening? Apart from the fact that ie is generally useless.

@richiebmanauthorApr 05.2005 — Yeah, that's the answer I was gonna go with too. ?

I did fix it by declaring it in my IE5 hack separate stylesheet thusly:
[CODE]
html p {
text-transform:uppercase;
}
[/CODE]

Success!
