I would apply position:relative and z-index in the "branding" div. I am not sure about the problem you are having on the gallery page, but certainly gallery section is very bumpy when trying to refresh the page( especially in IE). Try not to use the javascript where it's not necessary. Shinya --

2008-08-28 Thread Erik Rieselbach
This is a very simple but maddening bug -- so simple that I can't understand why I can't find any reference to it anywhere. I have a very simple document with one div inside . The div has position:relative and top:125px. IE6 apparently deals with this by sliding the whole div down 125 pixels

Hi Reg, in this style: #main { margin-left:220px; margin-right:10px; overflow:auto; } you have a margin-left:220px; change it to margin-left:10px; like so: #main { margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; overflow:auto; } And your problem should be fixed. Thank You, Parag Jagdale Un-identif
