Viewing with IE5
I'm experiencing a viewing problem with IE5 on everyone's DBMan. All of the text becomes crunched together after scrolling. Has anyone else experienced this? Everything is fine in Netscape.

What do you mean? Have you checked out everyone's DBMAN sites?

Could you provide an example link?

Don't see what you are talking about. Which text is becoming crunched? (Yes, I am using MIE 5.0 and I don't see what you are talking about.)

How about you save the page that is giving you problems as a HTML file (example.html), put it on your server, and then provide the URL to this example file, so we can see it??

I use IE 5.0..

This problem doesn't just occur with dbman.. You'll find (with time) you will suffer the same problem with other cgi sites also..

After emailing Microsoft.. they said (as you would expect) it was the graphics card that I was using.. not thier product..

I replied saying I didn't have a problem viewing cgi sites in other browsers.. (Netscape).. and 3 months down the track.. still no response...

I wonder why this is? Smile

even mentioning any MS products(especially IE) with bugs will start an avalanche of replies.

But you know, after all MS is always right NOT!

Not that it really helps the discussion any, but I've been told by tech support types not to install IE5 because it is a very buggy product.

Furthermore, I have checked with 5 different computers running 9 different installations (over time) of IE 4.x and they all displayed the exact same page drastically differently! I hold toilet paper in higher regard.
