Heading clipping in IE6

Tony Carnell

Hi,

Now here's an interesting (and highly annoying) thing!

I'm working on a webpage, and am having a display 'glitch' when viewed in
IE6 (oh no, not that non-standards compliant piece of rubbish I hear you
cry). Believe me, if IE6 didn't account for 9x% of the Web browser market
I'd forget it but it does so it would be good to correct it.

Here's a link to the page mock-up (strange URL I know but I wanted to hide
it from the client!):
http://www.all-in-golf.co.uk/rhubarb/

And here's a link to the stylesheet:
http://www.all-in-golf.co.uk/rhubarb/r/css.css

Now for the problem.
If you take a look at the page in IE6 you'll notice that the first two
content page banners with the titles "All-In-Golf" and "Our Golfing Break
Packages" have had their right hand border clipped (these borders are
actually part of the heading background and not a separate border
attribute).
It would appear to be something to do with the sidebar to the right of these
headings (the clipping was present only on the first heading until I added
another topic to the side bar), but exactly what is wrong eludes me.

Any ideas why this anomaly is happening and how I can fix it?

Many thanks in advance,
Tony.

Don't worry, I've fixed the problem myself using a different background
image for IE6 - inelegant but it works!

I am currently experimenting a bit with clipping (with banners). 1. Is it possible to do more then one clipping on a image. For example: image of 400px x 80 px: var TELLER = 0; function unfoldPic() { TELLER++; if (TELLER <= 80) { CURR_PIC.style.clip = 'rect(0px 400px ' + TELLER + 'px 0px)'; window.setTimeout('unfoldPic()', 30); }

image clipping problem

by: Andy Baxter | last post by:

hello, I'm writing a panoramic image viewer in html / javascript. The idea is I have a div with two identical panoramic photographs embedded in it. The clipping on the div is set to make it a viewport onto the images. Then I use javascript to make the two images scroll through the viewport - the second image is just there to fill the gaps when the first scrolls off the screen. They are seamless 360 degree panoramas, so this gives the...

how do you change the size of the clipping region of a Graphics object

by: dongarbage | last post by:

Hi there, I have a panel that I'm trying to draw lines on based on mouse events. I'm using a Graphics object to do this. However, the region that the graphics object will draw lines in is different in size than the panel size. I'd like the graphics object's clipping region (is "clipping region" the right terminology?) to be the same size as the panel. How do I do this? Note that the default size of the clipping region for the graphics

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
