Hi Rohit, Depending on the hasLayout [1] status of the outer and inner box, IE shows various problems in such cases. What you see indeed occurs when the outer div lacks hasLayout. Try adding zoom:1 to it. The inner div also usually needs hasLayout and position:relative otherwise its part protruding out of the container are clipped. Hope this helps, Bruno [1] http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/onhavinglayout.html -- Bruno Fassino http://www.brunildo.org/test ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
