OK - I'll play with that and see how I go >Probably a combination of the 100% width + 1px border on the table (which presumably will have tabular data). Try removing the table width, changing it to 99% and/or removing the table border. The more I look at it, the more it seems to be the case. I'll have to think of a better way to add that border, maybe on an element inside that container? >Incidentally, the javascript locked up MSIE for over a minute (after initial loading) and it was loading something like 180 files (presumably images). Ouch. Yep - I found that out too - that stuff is to support transparent pngs in IE. I use pngs in the tree menu - and in the background of the table cells. Looks like I'll have to throw it. It's a javascript trick from youngpup.net to apply that nasty transparency filter in IE. Thanks for taking the time to look. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Bert Doorn Sent: Wed 07/07/04 8:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WSG] IES and Firefox issues - Link included > Firefox will not display scroll bars when the tree expands beyond the dimensions of it's containing div.

Probably a combination of the 100% width + 1px border on the table (which presumably will have tabular data). Try removing the table width, changing it to 99% and/or removing the table border. Incidentally, the javascript locked up MSIE for over a minute (after initial loading) and it was loading something like 180 files (presumably images). Ouch.
