Display block element outside div in IE6

wkdown · 07-28-2009, 09:56 PM

I am trying to place a block element (eg <p>) half in and half out of its containing <div>. Using a negative left margin, I have successfully done this in all but IE6. IE6 seems to cut off the portion that lies outside the <div>. How do I remedy this? Thanks in advance.

try this on the containing div:

HTML Code:

div.container {
overflow:visible;
}
