Hi again guys. And fang, if you are out there, thank you again, but i've ran into another dilemma.<br />
<br />
My problem, once again, revolves around IE for Mac. In Safari and Netscape for Mac, my page runs beautifully. In IE, whenever you hover over the text-liks, the text disappears, and also, any normal text that isnt visible on the window will not be displayed if you scroll down. Two major flaws that I can not find an explanation for, and are non-existent in Netscape and Safari.<br />
<br />
Here is the link:<br />

<br />
I have two questions:<br />
<br />
1) If it needs to be fixed, how can I fix this?<br />
2) Does this happen in IE for Windows?<br />
<br />
If the wesite runs fine in Windows, we all know that many jaguar users are using safari now, would it be all that unwise to leave the site as is, with the disappearing text?<br />
<br />
Thanks everyone.<!--content-->Well I just tested the website in XP with Internet Explorer and it worked perfectly. Now, just curious as to why it looks to poxy in IE for Mac ?!?!?<!--content-->I just tried looking at it and it times out and does not load.

Well I just looked at it. It is very different than in Netscape 7/Mozilla for sure. My guess id the absolute positioning on the content div. Try postion: relative instead and see what happens.<br />

You also have 28 coding errors according to the validator. <br />

<br />
Let me know when to look again. I'll be around.<br />

<br />
I am now preaching for CSS people for help... Fang are you out there?<!--content-->don't believe it is the absolute positioing huh?<br />

MNS<!--content-->Sorry, but what is absolute positioning?<!--content-->Originally posted by edwardcav <br />
Sorry, but what is absolute positioning? <br />
<br />
This from your page:<br />
<br />
#content {<br />
position:absolute;<br />
top:51px;<br />
left:221px;<br />
width: 549px;<br />
height: 790px;<br />
}<br />
<br />
MNS<!--content-->Sorry to ask silly questions, but... What ca I substitute "absolute" with? "right"???<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help, though.<!--content-->
