But as I mentioned, the problem now is that Opera doesn't show the page in the right way. See screenshot <http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/images/i-Opera.jpg>. The screenshot is Opera 8, and Opera 7.54 has the same (so I guess all recent Opera's). Then satisfying NN6 is disregarding Opera... Only thing will be to detect NN6 with a javascript, and give the position:absolute as NN6-only instruction. The javascript for a browser-sniffer just for NN6 is: --------- <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"> <!-- // test Netscape Navigator 6, if yes: give position:absolute for #main if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Netscape6") != -1) { document.write('<style type="text\/css"\>#main\{position:absolute;\}<\/style\>') } //--> </script> --------- This has to be placed just under the <style></style> in the head of the page. Made a testpage <http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/iNN6.html> with it, and in this way NN6 is doing what asked and also Opera is happy (FF and IE stay o.k.). This is working under Windows98SE, the only system I have. Hope WinXP and other operating systems do the same!
ps: the sniffer-wisdom I got from an excellent online html/css-manual - www.handleidinghtml.nl - but that is in Dutch... francky ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
