Absolute Positioning, Relative Parent, Disappearing Content, IE6

CSS and front-end development can be ‘interesting’at times, and shouting at the screen seldom has any affect. I’ve come across most of the IE6 quirks in my time, and used most of the available hacks as well, to varying degrees of success.

The latest to rear its head was one of the strangest. A redraw bug when absolutely positioning a box within the confines of a relatively positioned parent. Nothing strange in that, but the issue was with the other static, relative positioned & float boxes in the same parent and the source order of these divs!

Affilistore Mod – CSS Pagination

I’m currently in the process of setting up a number of affiliate marketing sites using the excellent Affilistore Pro v2 product, which enables multiple product data feeds, from multiple merchants & stores to be displayed on a single product/price comparison site.
