Then sadly you'll need to dispense with any absolute divs that obstruct the flow of the content you're trying to select.

Why do you want to select the text? This might go some way towards providing an adequate solution that doesn't involve totally overhauling your stylsheet.

Hi,

I have written an html page based on CSS layout. The page has a parent <div> tag which contains many other div tags including one for Side Menu, one for Masthead and one for the Content.

The problem: Using IE6, I am unable to select a part of the text from the content area. When I try to select a para or a line, all the text on the page within the parent <div> tag including the side menu bar get selected.

Does anyone have any suggestions about this problem ?

Thanks
