Disappearing Text or Images in IE?
2007-09-17 #html
IE exhibits a very strange bug whereby text or background images sometimes disappear from sight. These items are still actually present and, if you highlight everything on screen or hit refresh, they'll often re-appear. Kind of strange, huh?
This problem mostly occurs on background images and on text positioned next to a floated element. To remedy the problem, simply insert position: relative into the CSS command for the disappearing element, and for some bizarre reason, that'll usually fix the problem. If this doesn't work (and sometimes, it doesn't), assign a width to the offending element in the CSS -- that should fix the problem.
