Hi, First post, after a fair amount of lurking/learning and i think it is a tricky one (sorry!) I have a problem in (seemingly) all versions of Opera (windows) where my contentboxes collapse to a certain extent when an input on my menu is hovered over. The page has an outer box and inner box which both have submit inputs for tabbed style navigation. This works fine in all of the latest browsers (including IE6 with a bit of Javascript), but Opera seems to throw the widths around when hovering over the innertabs. The problem seems to be related to the textarea, but i really can't see why. If anyone has any ideas they would be most appreciated as this is hair-pulling out time! The code is at http://metafaq18.metafaq.com/clients/metafaq18/html/processQuery.html The CSS is split into 3 sheets but the relevant ones are at http://metafaq18.metafaq.com/clients/metafaq18/html/styles.css and possibly http://metafaq18.metafaq.com/clients/metafaq18/html/tabsButtons.css <http://metafaq18.metafaq.com/clients/metafaq18/html/tabsButtons.css> The code validates as does the css (aside from colour warnings)... i'm sure this must be a css problem somehow but can't see why. Thanks in advance for any help James ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL-REMOVED]] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
