Thanks Philippe, I'd already tried to give it layout. But after your email I tried again...with no luck. I also took the samples from brunildo.org and made the <a> absolutely positioned, to the same effect. Here's my latest sample. Again, I'm sorry I've no publically viewable samples. Lastly, according to [1] making an element position:abs gives it layout. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";> <html lang="en"> <head> <title>IE5 no click</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- #appheader { border:3px solid green; height:60px; position: relative; } a { position: absolute; height:1%; z-index:2; } img { z-index:2; height:40px; display:block; position:absolute; } --> </style> </head> <body> <div id="appheader"> <a href="#" title="bleh"> <img src="a.gif" alt="bleh" width="400px" height="40px" /> </a> </div> </body> </html> ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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/
