My latest blind guess has just come back negative. I'd be very grateful for *any* advice about how to solve this problem, even if you're not sure what the real cause is. Any kind of feedback would be greatly appreciated. -- stefan

I'd love to provide a reduced example, but (most of) the page is generated by JavaScript, which is in turn generated by Java, and I don't have the authority to share any code, or even the HTML result :-( If we can't find a way around this issue, I may well be forced to create a stand-alone example, but please bear in mind that I can't test in the customer's environment, so it's going to take some time until I get it right. I know, it's an awkward situation... I personally wouldn't have any problem at all with posting the complete HTML+CSS, but I can't. Thanks for your reply. I'm hoping that *someone* has seen something like this bug before, and can give advice. -- stefan

I did see something flash by in my street just now. Which, of course, now reminds me: <http://dorayme.netweaver.com.au/jokes/gardenParty.html> -- dorayme

Ditto the HTML. We are prepared to pay (like newspaper journalists and street detectives). -- dorayme |
