Layout not showing up in IE but does in Firefox, Myspace layout trouble Options

[forever-without-...]

It is a div myspace layout and has an image map. but the image map is not showing up in IE, and is showing only in firefox. I have gone over the code millions of times and does not seem to work. I just submitted it before I discovered this problem. It has not been rejected or accepted.
If you have Firefox and IE, you might be able to help me out.
I have never had this problem before and I have posted 7 other layouts before this one.

THis is the layout I am having trouble with

UPDATE**so the layout was accepted.

well maybe try changing around your coding, that helped my Slash DIV show up on IE.

so instead of.

CODE

<div class="aboutme" style="position:absolute; overflow:auto; width:243px; height:162px; z-index:1; left: 297px; top: 623px;">

you could try.

CODE

.aboutme {
width:243px; height:162px; overflow:auto;
position:absolute; z-index:1; left:297; top:623;
visibility:visible;}

and then just put this in the who id like to meet.

CODE

<div class=aboutme>
Stuffhere.
</div>

and if that doesn't work it could be the z-index.

I've tried moving it around a lot. it does not work. but i will try again. I just don't understand why the screen shows up COMPLETELY BLANK on a black background, it just does not make sense.
By the way, I'm not too familiar with changing the z-index, any help with that?

For z-index -

The larger the number, the more "priority" it has. Something with 'z-index;1' will be positioned in front of something with 'z-index:0'. These measurements are not really measurements, they're rankings, so they don't need a unit like pixels or point sizes - just numbers.

For it to work, the thing you're applying the z-index to needs to be positioned using either absolute or relative positioning.

I gave your code a quick look, and I really don't think it's a z-index issue, though. It wouldn't hurt to change it around, though, to see.

thank you i will try. right now, though no one seems to be complaining. i think most users use firefox. and i wrote that it only works for firefox. I hope i can fix it soon though.

I fixed the problem. I'm not sure how. but I fixed it!!!
YAY. I think I moved some things around like you said. but I'm not sure.

You're right, it does seem to be showing up in IE (I'm on a mac, but I used browsershots.org to test it). I'll go ahead and close this now, and I'll move it to the Resolved Topics forum by this evening - if you have any other problems, feel free to make another topic.
