html_code_clinic thread: DIV tag with 'overflow: scroll' not displaying in MS IE 5.0 - Wh
at's wrong??
Hi all, I searched my archives of this list with no results on the topic
above.
I have some ASP code which dumps a results table within the following DIV
tags:
<div style="height: 100%; width: 560px; overflow: scroll;">
<!-- table from ASP written here -->
</div>
This code works well under MS IE 6.0, but if I load it under MS IE 5.0, the
content is not displayed. It is there because I can 'view source' and see
the results table, but it will not render on the screen. The first thing I
tried was to change the DOCTYPE from "3.2 Final" to "4.01 Transitional", in
case that was the culprit - didn't work. I then removed the 'overflow:
scroll' attribute and the results table loaded, but it simply ran off the
end of the page. That's not what I want. According to w3c.org and other
reference sites, the overflow attribute is fully supported under IE 5.0 but
I can't seem to get it to work! If all fails I could possibly write the
table contents into an IFRAME, but that would be horrible and we don't want
that.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Jared
