Javascript in the page is adding the following styling to the head element:

html {height:100%; background-color: 
#ff;}body {margin:0; padding:0; overflow:hidden; 
height:100%;}#flashContent {visibility:hidden}

Micky is right; it is the overflow:hidden rule that is breaking the scrolling.

Cheers,

One of the main sites I maintain is still seeing around 25% IE6, mainly from 
China. I hate it, but I can't drop it.

Note however, that this is a in a very niche market, and the plural of 
anecdote is not data :)

Re: [css-d] Web typography with CSS3

Thanks for the link, but how about including a live demo to click on instead 
of just a PNG? 

I suspect a lot of readers in here have multiple browsers installed and would 
be interested in seeing the results "live" as it were, rather than having to 
copy and paste your code into an example file to see what happens.

Hi David.

I have a comment or two, mostly regarding your navigation design, which is 
only tangentially about CSS. I hope it is not inappropriate. 

On the page there are 3 main navigation elements; the menu on the left, the 
number group, and the image itself. There are also links in the text below the 
image. Links in all 4 of these groups look and behave differently, including 
different hover states. 

This makes for a confusing navigation scheme as the user has to constantly 
guess about what might be a link, since the design offers them no guarantee 
that having found one link they'll be able to identify others. Changing the 
design to provide a consistent interface on all your links will remove that 
discomfort for the user. I'm not suggesting that they need be identical but a 
single consistent attribute across all links, be it colour, typeface or 
whatever, can go a long way in helping your visitors find their way on your 
site.

The number navigation links seem to me to be either too prominent, or not 
prominent enough. Their hover state is barely different which makes them the 
hardest links of all to identify, and there are no clues nearby as to the fact 
that they can be used to navigate. Perhaps you intend to do this in the text 
above, in which case ignore me :)

I'm sorry to go on but I'm not much good at explaining myself in few words. I 
have just one more comment. The phrase "view the site live" I also found 
confusing. It wasn't clear to me what "the site" meant in this context. 
Perhaps a change of wording to something more explicit like "explore the full 
website built from this design".

I hope this doesn't come off as harsh, I just strongly believe in the power of 
a good navigation design to enhance any website.

Cheers,

Mark

As far as I know (I'm by no means an expert however) there is no way to do 
this without javascript.

You aren't exactly asking about a "simple" href though, are you?

It certainly can't be done the way I suggested without the form, as 
 is a form element. If you look at the brief example I posted, you 
can see that the destination for the link is defined in the action of the 
 element, so you can hardly miss it out and expect to get a working 
link.

Have you considered the  form element rather than using a div?

It can be styled all manner of ways, and is actually intended for the kind 
of stuff I think you are trying to do. Obviously, I may be 
misunderstanding your needs, but have a look at it anyway.



Send an Invitation
Send a invitation to



This is legal html, and you can style "invitationbutton" as display:block, 
set hover, background, border etc. however you wish. It will all work as 
one big link.

Hope this helps

Mark
