It's an IE bug/feature. A nuisance I have to admit. The BASE tag though??? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Foskett Sent: 20 July 2005 10:29 To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: RE: [WSG] Base tag and the selecting of body text in IE
Hi y'all, I've a quick question about the base tag and the selection of body content text. Try selecting body content text on this page in IE6: http://stageaclearn.ngfl.gov.uk/ The site uses a base tag: <base href="http://stageaclearn.ngfl.gov.uk/content_files/acl/pages/home.htm"; /> Yet if the tag is removed the body text becomes selectable. Has anyone come across this issue? Is there a solution?
