Thanks Ingo for your responses. I spent the day yesterday looking at the things you suggested and at brunildo's site to see how they apply to my problem. I agree with you that it looks as if the problem arises when the browser thinks the total width of the page exceeds 100%. That was a great insight I hadn't seen before.Ingo Chao schrieb:

And I think the problem (the a. p. menu is disappearing in IE6 and IE5.5 on reload) is triggered when the floated div#center-layout's
margin-left: any value em + width:70% exceeds 100%.
I just noticed that Bruno Fassino already has some more comprehensive test cases and solutions here

I still haven't found a solution to the problem, but have been able to minimize it by changing the right margin of the #center-layout to 0 for IE. This allows the window to get narrower before the scroll bar appears and apparently the width parameter causes it to show some of the background on the right so I'm getting the effect I want.
A friend of mine looked at the page on a Mac using OS-X and IE5 and said that the text in the #center-layout (the four paragraphs of text) are left aligned and only extend half way across the #center-layout. Are you seeing anything like this?
Thanks again for your help, Carl. ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/
