Hello List,
I've used a scrolling div to display content. I want to use anchors to
allow users to skip around within that content, but the page behaves
unexpectedly.
Wanna see?
Click on "calculators" when you reach this page:
http://205.158.168.102/020.shtml
And then click the link "mortgage calculators".
Does anyone know what's going on here?
The scrolling div is defined thusly in an external style sheet:
.Content {
font-size:13px;
font-family:"Trebuchet MS", Times New Roman;
color:#FFFFFF;
position: absolute;
top: 126px;
visibility: hidden;
display: block;
background-image:url("fade-dkblue.gif");
border:1px solid #333333;
padding: 4px 8px 4px 8px;
background-attachment:fixed;
}
and later, based on output by a sniffer, scrolling div gets a scrollbar in
the document header
if (is.ns) {
document.write('<.STYLE type="text/css">.Content {overflow:
-moz-scrollbars-vertical;}<./style>');
}
else if (is.ieX || is.ie5 || is.ie4) {
document.write('<.STYLE type="text/css">.Content {overflow-Y:
scroll;}<./style>');
}
In early, buggy iterations of this page i #COULD# move around the scrolling
div, but i linked to the anchor from OUTSIDE of the div. I must have FIXED
that. This time i'm trying to move around within the section. I might just
break this single section into several...
Thanks in advance,
Collette
