Yes, removing that line with overflow:auto; removes the flicker, but it also breaks the design. From the perspective of the current project, I'd rather loose the font-weight:bold. If I can keep both then the client will be happy. Nick Cowie wrote: It is overflow: auto; in .clear .module_bg

I think I have come up with a more elegant solution now. There is only one menu with each link formatted like this: lia id=Home title=Home href=index.jspbr /Home/a/li The br pushes the text under the header so it isn't visable to regular users but accessable when images are turned off.
