Default Problems displaying layers... CSS - 07-30-2004 , 08:30 AM






Looking for some assistance with the layers in my page. The url is
www.spinnerdesign.com

I am using Win XP Profession and IE 6.

The left-hand layer (with the address details) sits over the main content
layer... i have the width of the content layer set to "auto" . I don't
understand why it is behaving this way.

Secondly when you scroll over the menu on the left the copyright info and
the image in the bottom right hand corner jump up about 20 px. Another
thing that is baffling me.

If anyone can offer some suggestions it would be much appreciated. In
addition I haven't check the site in other browsers as yet so i welcome any
input in this area if elements are not displaying correctly.

#leftcontent is absolutely positioned. Any absolutely positioned page
element is removed from the flow of the code on the page. As such, it
cannot affect the width or position of any other page element, which is what
you seem to want it to do.

To get this effect, you would need to wrap both the main content division,
and the leftcontent division in a container, and make one of the wrapped
divisions float (either right or left depending on which division you
choose).

I do not see the jumping you are describing in either IE6 or FF0.8/WXPPro.
