I am making a site containing myspace layouts..i put a nice little icon which links to my website in the lefthand corner of the layouts using the css code position:absolute...everything was great until i tested it out in internet explorer 5 (for my mac)...the icon showed up in the middle of the page..apparantly this is a bug with IE5..is this bug fixed in more current versions of IE? does anybody know a workaround? if not, should i abandon my icon ? or assume that most people dont use IE 5? thanks!\

Did you resize the window after the page loaded? That tends to happen with Internet Explorer.

The position: absolute css wasn't added until 6 or 7. And 5 is the last stable version for mac. IE sucks anyway. FF and Opera pwn any day. |
