I have spent a lot of time Googling this problem with no luck. I
suspect it may be one of those things that are so obvious I just
can't see. So I'm turning to the list for help.
The page in question is: http://spark.andrewmaben.com/index.php?
page=information and the CSS is at http://spark.andrewmaben.com/
resources/sparks2.css (Specifically line 655 ff).
In IE7 (and I imagine other versions) when clicking on the "Schools"
tab in the center panel, the school info appears with no scrollbar, a
second click "magically" reveals both horizontal and vertical
scrollbars, and clicking on another tab and then re-clicking
"Schools" reveals a vertical scrollbar (the desired result). Works
fine in Safari/Mac, Firefox/Mac/PC. HTML is valid 4.01 strict. There
are CSS errors due to the use of some proprietary properties, but I
don't think they are a factor.
The "Schools" panel has a table contained within a fixed height div
with overflow:auto. The "Other" panel, with a paragraph with
overflow:auto is fine in IE7.
I'd really appreciate any suggestions.
(And yes, I know - mea culpa, I fell back on a layout table to hold
the Weather).
Thanks,
