Hello folks,
I have a simple bug that defies my ability to find a work around. In
IE7 strict-mode, if you have a table with width 100% in a DIV block..
the content will appear UNDER the div's scrollbar. If you switch to
quirks-mode the problem goes away - meaning the table width adjusts to
accomodate the scrollbar.
To see, display the follow html and click "add text" until you get a
scrollbar. Some text will appear under the scrollbar. Remove the
doctype tag, and reload, to go into quirks-mode, and the problem is
not reproducable.
Anyone know what is going on, or have a work around?
Thank you!
Gary
