Hi.
I'm working on a project and we are running into a CSS problem where in Windows / IE6, on some pages and at some spots, the text will not show up when you load the page, however, if you highlight the text it appears. i have seen this before and have read a little about it but i was wondering if anyone has foung a solution.
This seems promising, but i haven't gotten a chance to try it yet and i am wondering if anyone has: http://www.zeldman.com/daily/0103d.shtml#tweaks
thanks for any help!

I had a similar problem with a CSS & nested-divs based rounded corner design. In the end I admitted temporary defeat and fell back to tables. So, I am interested in tips on this as well.

I'm sure it's an IE bug, try adding position:relative to the element.

This is a very well-known bug in IE, known as the "peekaboo bug". It's one of the top reasons on the very long list of reasons why IE must die.

There's one common place documenting the bug. Google will find you a dozen more. There are about 4-5 different ways around it. I strongly recommend against any of the "rely on other CSS bugs" or comment hiding tricks, as they are guaranteed to die on you without warning some day soon and break something else. The height: 100% trick is what I generally use.
Cheers.
