<span>'s in ASP.NET

[C]

Hi,

I have a link on an aspx page.

When the user clicks on this link I make a <span> visible.

Within my span I have a series of textboxes.

In Netscape 6.0 and 7.0 these textboxes are invisible.
When I set focus to them and start typing they come
visible. Any ideas why this is? I can see teh cursor
flashing in the textbox but the textbox is invisile.

Having type something and tabbed out the become visible?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
C

A simple solusion is to use <asp:Literal> instead of <span>

I thought that <span> was IE specific & not recognised by Netscape..

Can you show some code? I am betting that this is purely a JavaScript issue
and Netscape rendering inline elements. What if you change to DIV instead
of SPAN? Since DIV is a block element, does this affect rendering?

<span> is part of the HTML Standard.
