User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826 On this page there is a single <div> within the <body>. If this <div> is absolutely positioned with non-zero "top" (80 used in the example) then if the content of the div is longer than the viewport the bottom of the <div>will be inaccessible in the browser window. The vertical scrollbar will "bottom-out" before the content does. If all content is visible and the bottom of the <div> is visible then collapsing the viewport vertically will reproduce the problem. It is possible to cut-off the bottom of the div WITHOUT introducing vertical scrollbars. The amount of "page" missing in this way is equal to the value of "top" used. The net result is that if a div has an actual height of say 320 pixels and is offset by top: 80px; then assuming that the page consists only of this element, the computed page height remains at 320... the 80px offset seems to be ignored. IE5.1.5(Mac) gets the layout correct. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: IE5.1.5(Mac) gets the layout correct. Not yet checked on other platforms except that Chimera (0.5.0) on MacOS X displays the same problem as Mozilla 1.1.
