Iframe and css

It's all going terribly, terribly wrong...

[edit_g]

I've got an iframe on a pure CSS page - the iframe is inside a div but I can't get it to behave.

When I load up the page it looks great - just the way I want it and I can scroll up and down - but as soon as I mouse over one of the links in the container div the div changes height and obscures the bottom of the iframe.

Any ideas?

Hmm...that sounds like a tough one. The first possible glitches that come to mind are:

1) Using bold on hover and not on normal state of links.
2) Positioning of the div(absolute seems to mees up alot)

The code would probably help on this one.

Thanks Birdman - this does seem to be the problem.

However - it looks as if Opera 7 won't deal with iframes anyway. The only way around this seems to be a bit of javascript (not going to happen). So I'm going to have a little rethink...

I havn't had any problems with iframes in opera - although I've only used them once, admittedly, and the scrolling was set to 'no'. Don't forget to specify a height and a width in the container div as well as for the iframe, if you havn't already - and maybe see if adding the overflow: hidden style property helps?

I'll post a little bit of the code (I'm just hacking around here so its a bit messy with inline styles etc):

This is the CSS for the content part in which the iframe is contained:

#content
{
position: absolute;
top:7em;
left:16em;
clear:all;
float: right;
width: 65%;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #E9E2DD;
border: 1px solid #33414D;
}

This is the iframe, which is the only thing in the div, apart from some txt in <p> tags.

<iframe name="news" src="news.html" frameborder="0" height="95%" width="40%" border="0" align="right" style="border: 1px #33414D solid;"></iframe>

One thing stands out and I'm not sure if it will help any but, all should be both in the clear property.

clear: both;

Hope it helps out some.
