Oh! Well what about this page that's doing the same thing for me http://mezzanines.com.au/index2.cfmThat page also h as all the content there, because when you select it shows up, but seems to be white text on white background, despite what the CSS says.

RE: [WSG] What's wrong with this page??
Try replacing the graphic - I had a similar thing happen today - image in a header viewed fine in all other browsers and evenen Mozilla on other computers. But would not display for the life of me on the one machine. I even replaced and upgraded Mozilla to 1.6 from 1.5 to no avail - rebooting didn't work either - finally I just re-uploaded the image and poof there it was - weirdest thing but it worked!

RE: [WSG] What's wrong with this page??
AH YES!!! Thank you to Manuel González Noriega and Jason Turnbull. You both diagnosed it correctly, and with your help I've fixed the problem. It was indeed that bug that was causing the problem. I had read that note before, but it didn't mean much to me at the time, not having experienced the problem. Which leads me to another point ... we have a LOT of reading material here and I know that all of Russ's emails with the subject some light reading will contain lots and lots of useful stuff. The trouble is, its not always immediately of use, and later on when it is needed, I can never put my finger on the article again to put it to use. Is anyone giving any consideration to cataloguing all those articles? Perhaps an index on a web page or something? It would be good to be able to turn up an article mentioned here on the list 3 months ago by searching somewhere. Perhaps part of the WSG site. If not on that site, I'd be happy to provide SQLServer and ColdFusion and web space for the purpose.

RE: [WSG] What's wrong with this page??
Yes, its pulled down now Sarah, but thanks for looking. I had a totally different problem with coldfusion at the time I posted that message, so I made a static version of the page. Ive since fixed both the ColdFusion problem and the display issue I was talking about, so I have no need for the static page to litter the site. Ive done some housekeeping and got rid of it. If you want to see the site, the client will probably give me the ok to launch it tomorrow. But the (unlaunched) home page is at http://mezzanines.com.au/index2.cfm The page in question was the about us page, but the problem was also appearing on the home page and several others. Now all gone by using position:relative in the offending divs, thanks to two people on this list who pointed out the problem and also to articles with the solution. Thanks again for being interested enough in my problem to go looking.

Felix This looks to generated from Outlook Express - it hasn't been sent by a list member.
