Details

1. on drop down menus created with the style properties of absolute position, i applied a a:hover property to the link which would then overflow to visible instead of default which is hidden, when the mouse is hovered, the overflow is not displayed inside the text box but below it...almost unreadable...view my website for further details 2. on the property no-repeat as to background images, the property acts like repeat-y 3. text-transform:smallcaps is not applied as it should be p.s.-more inconsistiencies occur, i'm just not sure if i messed up on some code, but for these three instances, the code worked absolutely fine on ie5 all instances of style sheets on my web site are uncommented as that would require extra work...i'm sorry for this inconvience and thank you for the time in creating a good browser and going through such vigourous tests p.s.s.-i didn't see a form input but these tests were performed on the m11 browser

Summary: i play with css and noticed these incompatibilities → CSS drop down menus don't work
Target Milestone: M15
1. I suspect it's invalid because of over-constraints. I'll do a testcase later if nobody volunteers. 2. It works for me, the background doesn't repeat. Note that the element doesn't always display the image because you have 'background-attachment:fixed'. 3. Invalid. It should be spelled 'small-caps'. Changed the title to "CSS drop down menus don't work" from "i play with css and noticed these incompatibilities". Set milestone to M15.

Old bug... Marking Invalid: the menus work as they should. The additional items (like / "is" / "cool") are displayed by making "overflow:visible" and as a result they appear on top of the block background instead of making the menu area expand like in WinIE5. This is a bug in WinIE5 (which BTW has been fixed in MacIE5). You should not use the 'overflow' to display menus in CSS: change the box size instead.
