Hi all
I've encountered an annoying CSS bug in IE5.0 (no, really). I've got a
background image attached to the <html> tag, which works fine in IE6,
Moz etc. In IE5, for some reason the image won't load unless something
is done to the browser. That something can be anything: scrolling,
re-sizing, alt-tabbing, anything. I need an IE5 fix for about 4 months
(my company is upgrading to IE6 as we speak), and I've run out of ideas
on hacking the CSS, I figured I'd just use some JS to re-size the
browser by 1px to force the image to appear. A very dirty, nasty
solution but (unless anyone knows of this CSS bug and a fix for it), I'm
stuck.
I can't work out the JS needed to do this in IE5. I need to get the
height of the user's current browser window and shrink it by 1px. It
has to be possible!
Regards
F
