Hi Georg

It would appear that your fix for the floating container (by removing the
height) has also fixed the IE 5.0 bug I was experiencing.

Just tested it now on browser cam Win2k IE5.0 and the boxes no longer drop
down on the page.

Cheers for all your help!

Ben

I didn't see it...
...I just asked HTMLTidy what was wrong ;-)

The validator would have picked it up too.

Cannot reproduce the problem in an IE5.0 stand-alone, and my complete
5.0 version is "off line" ATM.

It might be the IE5.0-exclusive "jumping page bug", but that's just a
shot in the dark. If so, then it's a tough bug to kill, and most
solutions require a slight change in markup.

That page-layout/CSS can't handle font-resizing in any browser but
IE/win btw. Same problem: fixed height.
