Some very 'nasty stuff' is happening under Internet Explorer 5 on a Mac (OS
9.1). The horizontal and vertical scrollbars become 'infinitely' long.

Hi Roy,
thanx for looking. Could you explain a bit more what's happening? Is
the content still accessible? Because if that's the case, I think I
can live with it ( if I don't find a solution, that is).
If the content isn't accessible at all, I'll have to find a solution.

Thanx, Matthijs.

The content is definitely accessible. I did some deeper crawls in your site and
here's a short report:


-The scrollbars always change upon refresh. Sometimes they are almost
non-existent (close to a perfect fit), but sometimes they are huge. It seems
quite random, which is scary from a programmer's point-of-view.

-The menu on top don't exactly work. They overlap and it is almost impossible to
read the headings, especially when hovering. If you have OpenOffice.org, I can
send you screenshots (MAC OS 9.1 is odd when it come to screenshots format).


-A page titled 'Bestel' has huge scroll bars within, as well as in the main
window.

-Lastly I should say that Mac IE5 users are a small minority, but they represent
a majority, I believe, among old Mac users.
