I have a page where some styles don't display initially in IE5.5. It works in Mozilla, so as usual it's IE that's the culprit. The page is here >== http://www.facs.gov.au/_newsite3/pub.htm
The first paragraph is supposed to have a background colour (eg. a 'breakout' box), and the H2 heading should have a bottom border and background colour. What happens is that once the page has loaded, if you scroll down and then scroll up again, the styles are then displayed. Hit refresh, and they disappear again. Also, I notice that hitting the ALT key makes those styles disappear. The funny thing is that this doesn't affect all styles on the page - only those two. I've searched for some ideas on this - I know it is a IE bug but actually knowing how to describe it for a search engine is a bit difficult. Any ideas on how to stop this from happening? I though I had finished all this. Thanks. The advice from many in this forum to code for standards-based browsers like Mozilla and then fix up for IE is good advice...
