Forms on Opera

Newbie question

[Nicky]

I've got a search form that displays with a keycontainer div. Everything is fine on Netscape, Mozilla, and IE but on Opera the form displays half way down the page.

This is the css:

form {
margin: 0 5px;
padding: 0px;
}
#keycontainer {
background-color: #ccc;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
position:relative;
text-align: right;
margin-left: 0;
height: 22px;
padding: 0em 2em; } /*** IE6 needs this to display the div ***/

Has anyone come across this problem before?

[Nicky]

Can anyone help with this, I'm really stuck.

The div displays in the correct position but the form itself is half way down the page.

Please help.

Hi Nicky

Can we see the page so that we can see the problem in context?

[Nicky]

goto <snip>

on the home page - using opera you will see that the form is half way down the page - hiding behind some floats

Thanks

Hi Nicky

Whoa! You are using XHTML Strict and have a lot of problems. Use the validator here: [validator.w3.org...] to see them. I will take another look tomorrow, (this was just a quick look as it is after midnight here) but I think that you may have a "knock-on" effect error(s).

I'm in the process of validating it now.... lots of errors... I didn't realise things were so bad :)

Thanks for looking at this for me.
