I just installed a large project on a site that is used exclusively with IE 6.0 and
suddenly some very simple text is not displaying inside forms.
So I hit it with IE 5.5 and all is OK.
I am having trouble with Free Form text that floats above Select Boxes not displaying
unless I drag the scroll bar to force IE to repaint the screen... the text is there,
but not displayed until the scroll bar drag forces IE to repaint the section as it
comes into view a second time... THIS ONLY happens above the FIRST Select Box on the
page.
I jerked the .css file and put 1 style sheet tag into the header section to
demonstrate the problem. Removing the 'background: 669999' from the style sheet solves
the problem at the expense of the entire site design.
Pulled most of my hair out by now.
You can reproduce this BUG with this simple html code below... if you are running IE
6.0
Any Ideas?? what a workaround might be??
Once again, thanks for Looking at this.

Perhaps this Exclaimed one (!) one is a readable copy if the first one formats and
displays as a web document in your Email reader.
