I'm specifically looking for help from folks who use MSIE for Mac, as this problem only shows up in MacSIE! http://home.columbus.rr.com/vpchrispv The carrots that trail & bounce behind the mouse pointer leave trails all over Mac-MSIE's window. It doesn't happen in Netscape or MSIE for Windows. Can anyone tell me what I need to fix? The Javascript in question is not mine, though I have altered it to suit my site's needs, and yes, the original Javascript does the same thing. Help? Please? Church of the Bunny

I'm afraid it may be something we're stuck with until their next version. If anyone knows a work around I will also be very interested in hearing it. Look on the bright side... hardly anyone uses MSIE on the Mac.

I?ve had windows appear open when they are closed IE/ JavaScript fx leave trails or smudge together. <A HREF="http://x-design.atari.org " TARGET=_blank> </A>

A work around would be to turn this stuff off on that platform. P.S. I'm seeing a lot more of our Mac people around here using IE than I used to. Walking the Earth like Kane
