IE5 Mac overflow bug

Hi,

I know this <div style="scroll: auto"></div> has many bugs under IE5/mac. It seems to work in a simple page, but whenever HTML becomes complex, it behaves erratically (spell?).
In fact, scrollbars show well, but i can only scroll once! ie i can drag only once the vertical scrollbars, afterwards it is not draggable anymore... even clicking the arrows.
I am not interested in iframes, cause it would make me rebuild entire site.
The only workaround i've found so far is opening a popup window and writing the contents of the div in it :

<script>
var w = window.open('','','');
w.document.writeln(window.opener.
document.maincontents.innerHTML);
w.document.close();
</script>

is there a property that would let theses f... scrollbars work in IE5 mac?

Should you see it by yourself (sorry, the site is in french): <le snip>

Thanks!

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, logik!

Have you looked at a JavaScript option to achieve this scrolling? A Google search for "scrollable layer" should bring up a few scripts that you could use.
