Hello,

I have a popup help box for when a user hovers over the ? symbol and it displays the box with the text in etc and works fine in firefox but not in internet explorer, does anyone have a clue why this may be doing it

an example of one is on this page

http://web-itecsolut...php?page=search

if anyone could help it would be mostly appreciated, +1s

seems to have helped a bit,

still its being a bit funny on the other ones,

try the one on this page

http://web-itecsolut...=6&page=account

login is disabled hence errors

On the page you've posted is it just the last 3 that dont work if so looks like ther missing position:relative on the containing elements

i added them but i was talking about the way you hover on the question mark in places and it doesnt show the dialogue but if you hover above it slightly itll show the dialogue, its as if the image rollover is in a different place to the image we see if that makes sense

Its the glow filter causing the problem try adding position:relative to .leftmain

that done the trick thanks soo much

could you explain how the glow filter affected these things though so i know next time kind of thing +1

I'm guessing what ever strengh you use it pushes the child elements down and right that much but adding a position stops it

on this page
if you remove the from the ie stylesheet magglass margin
and on #searchjobs set height to 16px and add top and bottom padding of 8px

see how that looks

i removed it after i done the position:relative; on .leftmain

like you said it was the glow pushing un positioned things if that makes sense so i worked out that that was why the footer and the gobtn etc was moving as they all happened to move by 8px down and to the right

Thanks again, Gary
