Seems the only way is to paste an extra scrollbar for the left column (frame-like), but I think that is ugly and not good usable/accessible, apart from the cross browser issues. If you're fighting a deadline, I should forget spending time to try to get this layout working, and quickly develop an easy working new one...
To compensate for the bad news, I made an alternative testpage <http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test-universal_index6.html>. Just scrolling straight up & down - I guess nobody will miss the fixed sidebar. Solutions for enabling clientside font scaling of the menu (now breaking the layout) are included, also some adapted images. Success and greetings, francky btw: fixed the html-validation errors (an overcomplete </div> and some smaller things). Even when in a hurry: testing is life insurance! ;-) ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- 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/
