Netscape and Opera css issues.

Hello everybody !
I’m having some really strange issues with :
Netscape 6.0, and Netscape 7.0 ( not Netscape 8.0 ) and Opera ( versions under the 8.0 version )
It’s really strange, so I made 2 screencaps. One on Opera 8.0 ( bug not here ) and one on Netscape 6.0.
On all other browsers tested ( FF pc and mac, Safari, IE pc, and IE mac ) it appears like the Opera 8.0 screencap : normal.
Ok, let’s go straight to the point.
On my page, I have divs with absolute positioning, and background. Also, specified width and height, and all the things you should have when you have divs.
On Netscape ( the buggy versions ), my page appears, with only the background of the body element, and the text in the scrollable div ( a frame-like div ). Everything inside the scrollable div appears normal. ( for exemple, I have another div, with a background, and it’s there ).
But outside the scrollable div, none of my divs appear.
BUT, the strangest part of the story is : the links that correspond to those divs appear, and in the right position, and you can click on them. It seems only the background is not showing.
Has any of you been confronted to such a problem ?
I could post my code, but it’s quite long, and if you want to have a look at it ( I have only one test page running ) you can go to : [URL=http://enfantsdelo.free.fr/xbloglite]Page[/URL].
the little square things are also a div, and this one appears without any problems.
My 3 css don’t interact redondantly with each other ( I mean, I’m not defining an element in one, and then the same element with completely different properties in the other… )
thanks for all suggestions !
Ness

Edit : after some investigation, it appears that ANYTHING ( text, div, images ) which is not in the scrollable div doesn’t show on the page, even if the emplacements do. But nothing else appears.

OK, ok, it’s fixed. I don’t delete the thread, maybe it will be usefull to somebody one day, and my four hours hard work and crazy-going might help other people…
All I had to do was define a height for the body tag… and that’s all. :rolleyes: I discovered that after four hours… yeah… sometimes, you have silly bugs. I could never imagine that you had to define a height for a page. never. But know, I’ll surely never forget anymore.

I found the problem, it's okay, I'm not going to redo my site because I forgot to specify a height for the body tag.. lol !

Yeah, there is a specific reason for the 3 css...

actually, there was, for css.css and css1.css ( or whatever css(number).css ).

I used to have a website with an iframe.

css.css was the css for the parent page, css1.css was the style sheet for the switcher ( colors are defined in this one, only colors ), and cssin.css was for the inner pages.

I prefer to leave it like that, it's easier to view, for me. I know css.css contains all the ids for the divs that make the design, the main background and all, whereas cssin.css contains the tags that are applied to the inner pages <-- now the pages that load in the scrollable div...

Success!
