Dear List Members, I am so stumped by this IE 6 problem that I couldn't even come up with a properly descriptive subject heading for this email...
The layout of this site is very simple and my code validates. It looks the way it's supposed to in Firefox, Netscape, Safari, and even IE/Mac. What's worse, I can't even reproduce the problem, so how can I know if I've fixed it? (I am on a Mac. When I log in through browsercam the site looks just fine.) The site is at http://thebirthingwell.com, the css is at http://thebirthingwell.com/style.css, and here is my client's description of the problem, plus screenshots. She says: "The first problem occured when I opened up the site, and clicked several (maybe three?) menu items. On the third or fourth one, the entire window (um, landscape of the html page) at first appeared light green, then "settled" into what you see in the screenshot. Interestingly, without clicking anything (all I did was press printscreen, which switched me into a new application, and then I alt-tabbed back to the browser), it disappeared." Her screenshot is at http://thebirthingwell.com/problem1.gif. "The second problem occured after I'd clicked through each menu item *several times* each. Then, all of a sudden, I clicked a menu item, got the full green page, then it settled into what you see in the screenshot." Screenshot is at http://thebirthingwell.com/problem2.gif. "What I saw this morning was slightly different just in the fact that the errant green "box" was coming up from the bottom band, instead of down from the top band, and was situated over the menu area instead of over the well." No screenshot of this. "This is what "flashes" right before it "settles" into one of the two other problems. I can reproduce it easily, but not necessarily consistently. That is, I can get it to happen often (usually after clearing the cache, but not always limited to that), but it isn't always the same set of steps that causes it to happen. I can click on "contact me" one time and not see the problem, then I can click on "contact me" another time and get it." Screenshot of this is at http://thebirthingwell.com/problem3.gif. Note that the dark green band under the header is twice as thick as it should be. A thousand thanks in advance for any advice you can give me!
