Default two strange issues - 09-04-2003 , 02:58 PM






I have two other (hopefully) small questions a site - namely:

1) I can't select (highlight) body text without getting the navbar and
images, etc.

and

2) I can't click into my form fields (input boxes) without positioning
the mouse 'just right' at exactly the top edge.

Observation: this is only a problem in IE6. Opera and Moz don't exhibit
this behavior.

Any ideas on how I can fix these two issues? Any help would once again
be great appreciated.

(see the Percentage of Poverty Calculator)

or

(take the value text out, remove focus from the input box, then try to
click back in it - doesn't work in IE)

There you go:

In http://www.csareno.org/stylesheets/800.css you write:

div.content {
position: absolute; <---

Absolute positioning is broken in IE6 and causes the text-selection bug.
Use relative positioning of some sort, and keep absolute positioning
for the nav-bar etc.
