This is driving me crazy! Someone told me there was a problem with one of my Web sites. Finally, I’ve tracked down what’s happening, but I can’t figure out why.
The site works fine under Safari 1.3 (Mac), Netscape 7.1 (Windows), Firefox 1.0 (Windows), and Firefox 1.0.4 (Mac).
Under Internet Explorer 6.0.2800 (Windows), however, it comes up with a mess of repeated overlapping text and images. Resizing the window slightly fixes the problem, but it comes back as soon as you scroll. Speaking of scrolling, it shows a horizontal scroll bar and moves right/left no matter how wide the window is. No other browsers show this behavior.
The site was designed to expand and contract gracefully with the window size, and to allow various text sizes. I believe the problem is in the style sheet, but I’m not certain.
The page in question is captioncentral.com. Rather than pay hosting on a second site, I’ve placed this in a subdomain of another of my sites, and the host masks this with a frame. On my computer, if I bypass the frame and go directly to captioning.robson.org the problem goes away. The person who reported the problem says the problem happens either way on his computer.
I’m baffled. Help!
