Hi, *Introduction*
I have created a two column floating layout (to name - #sidebar and #main) using % as measure. There are two more columns inside #main div, which are inside their own container: <div id="main"> <h1>The product</h1> <p>some text</p> <div class="column-box"> <div class="column"> content1 </div> <div class="column"> content2 </div> </div> <p>the final paragraph</p> </div> Please see it at: http://195.13.171.36/work/skurstenis/preview/index_test.php Links are underbordered and on hover the line color as well as the color of link text changes. *The Problem* IE (and only, no other does it) shifts the columns on hovering any of the links inside the lists that are in columns. In fact, the padding or width of the column holderbox (or both of the columns) seems to be recalculated. It seems to be this problem: http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/percentages.html It was also observed that *only* if using borders or background color for link hover elements, the strange shifting occurred. If this is a plain link (no border, no background color on hover) inside a plain list, there is no problem. *Question* Is there a solution? I would not like to add any of additional divs for the columns. I have been struggling with this issue for many month and will be grateful and extremely thankful for your ideas and thoughts on this issue. Thank you once again, Kaspars *p.s.* I know that a "fixed" layout in em or px would solve the problem, but I would like to use %. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
