Hi,
I have an hidden DIV in my HTML page. I display it by changing its
visibility property.
My problem is that if this DIV is found outside the frame of the
window (you need to scroll to view it), it appears without background.
If it is partially outside the window the background appears only for
the part that is inside the frame.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
-David

You have decided, then, that you don't care how many people will be
unable to view your page?

Sorry I didn't got the irony

Presumably you change the visibility using Javascript?

That means that anyone without Javascript (around 10-20%, plus search
engine robots) won't be able to see it at all. Unless the default is for
it to be visible, but that's not the impression I got from your original
post.

Yeah, that seems to be "par for the course" for folks who make their
pages critically dependent on J.S for successful working.

Speaking from the sidelines (I'm not an enthusiastic user of J.S
myself), it seems to me that more-experienced J.S practitioners, at
least for the WWW context (which is what this usenet hierarchy is
about), find ways of using J.S that don't make their pages critically
dependent on it, but use it for offering *optional* additional
convenience or function.

all the best
