[css-d] Links not working IE/PC

2006-06-28 Thread Christy Collins
I have some pages where the links in the body text can't be clicked  
in IE/PC.  Could anyone point me in the direction of what might cause  
this to happen?

Christy,

Do you have a URL of a page where this behavior occurs?

I had a similar problem recently and validated my css and html and that 
fixed the problem.

a URL would help - the last time i ran into that I hadn't closed some 
tags, so yes the xhtml validation would help. -bob

Here ya go
http://www.aspinwell.com/index.php?/kennedy_park/

css
http://www.aspinwell.com/base.css

The links are at the very bottom of this text box.  The second one  
will activate if you hit the very bottom of it.

I think I've figured out the problem but not the solution.  There are  
images layered over the text box that show up when activated by  
mouseovers in the menu bar at the top (please no design critiques -  
it's not mine).  They are set to visibility: hidden.  Firefox and  
Safari don't have any problem with this.  I tried using display: none  
instead but no dice.  I also set a z-index for the hidden images  
lower than what is set for the text box but that's not helping either.

I just validated - it's all good except for that the links are set to  
open in a new window.

Thanks for looking.

-Christy

In the ie-specific style sheet, you are using an alphatransparency 
filter on #text_box, and #text_box is absolutely positioned.

Thanks tons - that was it - I can't get it working with a child  
element so I'm putting an image on another layer.  I don't know how  
long it would have taken me to crack that nut on my own.
