I can imagine. I've just made a small testcase of this bug, and it seems related to the combination of the absolute positioned element and the margin of the float. The order of the two elements doesn't matter btw - I reversed them in my test, didn't make a difference. Testcase 1: a floated ul, like in your page (only right floated instead of left) http://here.locusmeus.com/temp/bug1.html To see the effect, make your window less then 400px wide, refresh the page: no black box. Then draw your window wider, and at about a 50px (?) margin-left on the floated ul, the black box appears. Testcase 2: a floated div. http://here.locusmeus.com/temp/bug2.html This time, the margin needed to make the black box appear is very small, seems to be the natural padding of the body element. To solve this problem for your page: make your ul#nav narrower. The width of the absolute positioned element is irrelevant btw. -- Els http://locusmeus.com/ http://locusoptimus.com/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
