Hey all,
I am having a problem with something in IE7. I'm hoping someone can open my eyes to how to fix.
Here is a sample: http://www.originallyricsformusic.com/joindemo.html
The (#verytop) div should be 100% across the screen. I have it set to width:100% obviously, but it is not doing so in Internet explorer 7. Of course works fine in other browsers. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

From what I actually see is that your "verytop" div isn't going across.. I would take the "positioning" out of it;

Original Code:


#verytop{
	width:100%;
	height:13px;
	position:absolute;
	top:0;
	background: url(\"topbg.png\");
	background-repeat:repeat-x;
	}

Suggestion Code:


#verytop{
	width:100%;
	height:13px;
	top:0;
	background: url(\"topbg.png\");
	background-repeat:repeat-x;
	}

Give that a swirl.. Let us know. Thank you!

Yes! Thank you, that was it! I appreciate it. Why exactly is that? Just another stupid IE quirk?
