Re: [css-d] Right positioning problem in IE / www.scrapbook.melb.nettest

Sent by Nicholai Ronningen on 8 February 2003 05:05


Browser - Mozilla (MAC) http://www.scrapbook.melb.net/test/test1.html - 
the search field is too long and appears to be pushing the page... a 
horizontal scroll bar appears.

Browser - IE 5.2 (MAC) http://www.scrapbook.melb.net/test/test1.html - 
the right nav/search/etc. is completely missing. Refreshing & resizing 
don't help.

Browser - Mozilla (MAC) http://www.scrapbook.melb.net/test/test2.html - 
looks good but same issue comes up with search text box... horizontal 
scroll and all.  Again, resizing & reloading don't help.

Browser - IE 5.2 (MAC) http://www.scrapbook.melb.net/test/test2.html - 
well, this time I see the content of the right nav/search/etc. but it 
shows up on top of your content... no background...

IE 4.5 MAC... how old is that?
