Horizontal lines appearing in IE 5.1 for MAC OS 9

[nsatn]

Hi,

In one of our web pages, the page content is longer than the screen height and hence when the page is loaded, it is displayed with a vertical scroll bar. When scrolled down, the contents at the bottom are not displayed properly but a series of horizontal lines come up. This happens in IE 5.1.5 for MAC OS 9. The same page is getting displayed properly when viewed on IE 5.0 for MAC OS 9.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Sathya,

Why not post the url of the problem page, and then we can have a look at it for you?
I use an old G3 Mac myself for testing purposes, so I should hopefully be able to see what you're seeing too!

Hi,

The site is a secured site. So, i am not in a position to give the url.

I'll explain the problem though. I have a web page which contains 3 frames. In the third frame i am displaying a list of items which users can click on. The window will be opened without menubar/toolbar/statusbar etc. Till the list page, there is no horizontal scroll bar appearing. The moment the user clicks on a link, a greyed horizontal scroll bar appears.

And since the page content is longer than the window height, a vertical scroll bar also appears. The page contains lots of div elements and span elements. When the page is scrolled down, the div element at the bottom of the page is not visible properly. Instead, the greyed horizontal scroll bar moves up as many lines overriding the display of the page content at the bottom. I have a tooltip div also in that page. When the mouse goes over that tooltip, along with the tooltip div, the bottom div element also becomes visible clearly. The problem happens during the first time loading of the page and when ever the scroll bar is dragged slowly.

Hope this helps in understanding the problem.
