Hello all, I've been developing a site based on the Ruthsarian layouts and it's working ok except in IE 6.0, where there's a problem which is leaving me baffled, so I'm hoping that someone will be able to help. Rachel, I couldn't recreate your problem (checked in IE6), but it sounds to me as if you've got a Peekaboo bug. Here is an article that might help you: http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/peekaboo.html ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

There isn't a problem if you set IE's options to refresh on every visit to the page, but that's not going to help most people! Hi Rachel, I cannot for the life of me replicate the problem - I've tried IE6 on two different PCs, one running WinXP and one Win98. The IE options on both are set to 'check automatically' but I've tried the other settings too without any luck! Perhaps you could try a version of IE6 on another PC - if the pages work on there, you may have at least narrowed the problem down to your machine! Good Luck!!

I wasn't able to replicate the problem first, but when I go to http://www.ely.anglican.org/parishes/camgsm/new_site/activities/music/index.html and click on Church diary (which links to itself: href=index.html) yes, I see the header disappearing, but when you hover over the location where the horizontal nav should be, it re-appears, so, as Andreas already mentioned before, that looks like a peek-a-boo, Fix: apply the holly Hack to #pageFrame That peekaboo demo was created mid-2002. The other day, MS has announced that it will be fixed in 2005's IE7beta. Wow! Expected in 2011, when the last IE6 is buried, we can forget this fix!
