Ben, Sorry no direct email, but reply much appreciated. Will bugger off and look at floating.

It's all you :) I'm guessing the reason IE5 hides your headings is the "top:1px;" in your #centreblock. When you absolutely position something, it's positioned in relation to its containing block. The browser is positioning this div 1 pixel from the top of the body and your header sits over it thanks to its higher z-index value. Looking at your document structure, consider using floats instead of absolute positioning. These two tutorials by Russ might float your boat: http://css.maxdesign.com.au/floatutorial/tutorial0901.htm http://www.maxdesign.com.au/presentation/process/index_step05.cfm Regards, Ben ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ Proud presenters of Web Essentials 04 http://we04.com/ Web standards, accessibility, inspiration, knowledge To be held in Sydney, September 30 and October 1, 2004 See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ****************************************************** ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ Proud presenters of Web Essentials 04 http://we04.com/ Web standards, accessibility, inspiration, knowledge To be held in Sydney, September 30 and October 1, 2004 See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
