Excellent Karl, you were spot on both times!  Thanks very much.

It now looks correct in IE!

Cheers,

Bruce

Thanks Xianan, your post moved me to check the page on a third machine running IE6/WinXPSP2 and certainly the blurred text was not apparent (why it is on the two other machines I checked is beyond me).

I have a hunch that if you add a background color to your fragment class, the text won't appear blurred on your other two machines.
.fragment {
  padding: 10px;
  background: #fff;
}

Maybe worth a shot? I'd try it here, but I don't get the blur to begin wth.

The incorrect positioning of the text on the page as you move from tab to tab still exists however

If you mean that the text sits too far to the right, it looks like that is cause by a float issue with your ul.anchors. Adding one more line to your fragment class should do the trick:
.fragment {
  padding: 10px;
  background: #fff;
  clear: left;
}

At least it worked for me when I tried it here. By the way, I saw in your style sheet that you use ".anchor:after" -- which works great in Firefox, et. al., but not in IE. Perhaps that is why your display problems were only occurring in IE?

As for the ajax submit problem, I'm afraid it's beyond my skill level to fix, too. Hope someone else can take a crack at it for you.

Karl

The incorrect positioning of the text on the page as you move from tab to tab still exists however and the big problem of the ajax call in the Practice tab throwing the user back to the default tab unfortunately still exists.

I test it in IE6/WinXPSP2, and see nothing wrong with _javascript_ effect :)

May be CSS's problems? check it.

Hi folks,
Sorry about this "what's wrong with IE" question, but I've never
encountered such a difference between IE and FF before.
I have an application at
http://horticulture127.massey.ac.nz/degreeCdays.asp which works
perfectly in FF and basically not at all in IE - and I don't know
where to start to fix it.
The application uses Klaus' Tabbed Navigation to "split" a lesson
into three parts - overview, practice, and assignment.
In the practice tab, users enter a value into a form and an ajax
cycle works out the correct answer to the question, compares this to
the user's value and delivers the user a model answer back in the practice tab.
In FF this works perfectly.  In IE it doesn't.
Problem 1.
In IE, text in the different tabs is blurred and incorrectly placed
on the page whenever a user moves from tab to tab.
Problem 2
In IE, when I do enter a value into the practice "tab" and submit,
the page returns to the "Overview" tab with no result provided in the
"Practice" tab.
The display problems must be mine (Klaus' example works fine in IE)
but I cannot detect what I'm doing incorrectly.  The faulty response
to the ajax round is just beyond my skill level to fix without help.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Bruce
