Bizarre Behaviour in IE5

[lenin]

Hi,
I am doing some work with maps in IE5. I have noticed something which is ( constantly ) bizarre. If the image can be scrolled more than a couple of inches the ALT function fails.

So for example when I load a map into the browser and the bottom part is cut of say, I can hover over a region and get some details via Alt keyword. However if I scroll down a couple off inches the Alt function completely fails.

The issue is not related to the fact that the image is scrollable, but the fact that it scrolls a certain critical distance ( about 2 inches ). I don't see anything in technet or msdn related to this.

Has anyone seen this behaviour at all.

thanks

Lenin.

Absolutely right. I have tested it on about 10 maps and the behaviour is cinsistent.

Can I send you an image and source for you to try da_silvy?

I have made lots of changes. Took the image out of its framset etc etc. Still same result.
