First, I have an absolutely positioned DIV that has its overflow set
to auto. When the text in the DIV, which fits completely within the
boundary of the DIV, is resized up or down from 100% a vertical
scrollbar appears in MZ and FF even if the text still fits completely
within the DIV boundary. Is there something I can do so that the
scrollbar only appears when it is actually necessary? This seems to
work fine in IE.
Secondly, in my XHTML I define an A thus:
a title=Show more information class=info href=text.html/a
and the CSS for it is:
.info {
position: absolute;
left: 890px;
top: 556px;
width: 80px;
height: 30px;
background-image: url(images/info.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 0 0;
cursor: default;
}
With IE, but not MZ or FF, if I increase the font zoom to larger than
medium then a 2 or 3 px border appears under the A (info.png is
actually larger than 80 x 30 px). Why is a border appearing?
I don't know why a border is appearing (second question, above) but I
solved it by adding overflow: hidden to the CSS. That still leaves the
first question, for which I'd appreciate some help.
