I’ve got an image placed inside a div tag where the div is set to a height and width of 100%. The div has a “fixed” position with a “left” value set to “-36px”, which ensure’s it shows up exactly where I want it to. Everything that I setup in the style sheet works fine with Firefox 1.5x; the problem - big surprise - is that it doesn’t work at all in IE6.
Basically what’s happening in IE is that the scroll bars are still showing up (which I don’t want to happen) and it doesn’t appear to be recognising the negative-positioning either.
I’m just now learning to use div tags so there’s probably some trick I haven’t figured out yet. Here’s the code I’m using.
```auto
```
As I mentioned, it works great in FF but not in IE. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions it would be a massive help 🙂
Thanks!
