once you get to the page (I'm not sure if it happens straight away) click refresh...the whole of the top part of the page disappears, but will come back if you scroll or hover over the menu?
it's not happening in NN or Opera, but perhaps someone with IE5 (.5) could tell me what it looks like in there I don't have access to 5.5 today
I'm puzzled, I've changed the address bits, they were in div's and so I changed them to <p> classes
perhaps a bug?

Yes, I'd say it's a bug of some kind - but what kind? Where to start looking for the workaround? The class for that div looks really straightforward.
I'd be very interested in tracking this one down. Any IE 5.5 input? I don't have access either right now.
I'll try explicitly stating the visibility, but what gets me is that it is no specific div that is disappearing (i.e. the breadcrumb trail is in totally different class (and is actually called from an include file.. and also this isn't occuring on other pages which have the same template (I think 3 out of the top 4 menu choices are available for testing)
also I tried playing about with the size of the "mapspacer" div and then you actually see some of the far right side of the text..it's almost as if there was another different sized white div on the top for some reason...
also I entered another paragraph (not on the server) which had an image in it, the same thing happens again, but the image (100x100) is displayed, only the text disappears...weird.
I can get it to stop, by making sure I enter at least 2 headings/paragraphs, but that still doesn't explain this, and besides I don't want a great block of text at the top
I've tried using a spacer div, I've tried putting the top paragraph in a different class, I've also ignored the problem hoping it will go away :), but it hasn't!
Oh well
I guess it's not going to be ready when I said it would

thanks
It has something to do with the floated divs I have within the content section (although it's not them that actually disappears?)
anyhow my workaround is a shhhh (table!), but I guess seeing as how it's addresses I can legitimately call it tabular data :)
Apparently Microsoft are aware of the bug and are trying to fix it, but I'll come back to it later (probably much later at that!)
I also found a previous message on these boards, with no answer there either

as I think I've found a workaround by accident while trying to help someone else (in their page it was only borders, not whole sections of text that was disappearing)
the page in my profile no longer contains the bug ..but I did manage to recreate the bug so as far as I can work out the problem is triggered if you have a #wrapper div that contains floated divs..and (relevant or not I don't know but) the <div style="clear:both"></div> trick for the "content"
in some of my pages I have lists within the content section. I wanted to do this by creating a wrapper div and filling it with divs 30% wide that would float left, so regardless of how many divs were entered they would appear 3 wide and keeping wrapping down the page, but I resorted to putting them in a table.
anyhow specifying width: 100%; for the wrapperdiv cured the issue both for the aforemention person's borders and also my text...
Just thought I would post this incase there are others still having the issue
