I don't know if this is a general browser bug, but I think you may have given me a clue to a rat of a problem I've been having with IE6.
I used a nested <ul> for a pop-up navbar supplied by Hilco Tim, which uses a table for IE6 only, and the dang thing refuses to work for me, yet his example is OK. It looks likely that this is being caused by an overflow problem too. I set a colored border round the nested <ul> and removed the :hidden attribute from the hover and I can see that all is there, but once hidden, the little s**t refuses to come out of hiding. <g> I may try to resolve this as I have a deadline, but ultimately I will change the listing method, because Hilco's one does not validate, due to the table being within an anchor in the IE6 conditional.

The td element that was containing the #nav had an overflow: hidden; with a set width. I thought if i positioned an element absolutely that it doesn't get affected by overflow: hidden; from a higher level container? Is that not true? Is this a Safari bug? ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
