I've been humbled once again by CSS and IE6. I'm working on a CSS-based
layout that I intend to be compliant XHTML 1.0 Strict (although I admit that
my naughty cheat.js file for colored scrollbars is not exactly in the spirit
of standards). Unfortunately, the layout falls apart in IE6.
The page is located at http://www.thethousand.net/v2/index.php . The
stylesheet is located at http://www.thethousand.net/v2/default.css .
It's basically a two-column layout, with one column fixed-width (300px) and
the other dynamically resizable. The dynamic column is set 0px from the
left and 300px from the right, so it should theoretically resize at screen
resolutions.
Theoretically.
In IE6, the right edge of the dynamically resized-column disappears under
the right column. Screenshot available at
http://www.thethousand.net/v2/ie6.jpg . I posted a similar question to the
mailing list a few months back, but the solution I found then didn't work
this time. I scoured the web a bit and learned all sorts of interesting
things about IE6 bugs, but I had trouble implementing anything...yeah, I'm a
newbie. I tried Andrew Clover's position.js file, but for some reason, it
caused Mozilla 1.0 and NN6.2 to have spasming scrollbars. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
