Hi Pirkka-- Any of IE's hasLayout triggers on the span element will set off this bug. In this case at least, the 100% width is superfluous (display:block covers it). The obvious fix here is to remove the width:100% from the span and apply display:block to the anchor element...and then, try to avoid triggering 'hasLayout' on the span. I understand this won't always be the case, but it fixes your example. <a href="http://www.fi.com"; style="display:block;zoom:1;"> <span style="display:block;">http://www.fi.com</span> </a> Hope it helps. --Bill -- /** * Bill Brown * TheHolierGrail.com & MacNimble.com * From dot concept...to dot com...since 1999. ***********************************************/ ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
