Hi everyone
I have a table inside a div. The div has the overflow property set to auto and a height specified. At the moment when some of my pages load, the copy inside the div is peeking at the bottom. Is there any way to not show it? I've tried the clip property but I've found that it doesn't work when overflow is set.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

This is what I have. What happens on some pages with this structure is that the text is half shown at the bottom of the div. What I would like to know is if it's possible to hide that text until someone scrolls down.

In my IE and firefox it's came clearly
I think its depends on screen resolution, change your screen resolution to 1024*760
or 1280*800 ...

The problem is in the fluid nature of div. It doesn't always obey the height and width properties, unless forced to by surrounding objects. It "thinks" displaying the content is more important than the defined size.

Ok, if that's the case then surely it would show an entire sentence instead of just the top half of every word???

OH!
I thought it was cutting off the last half of the text string.
This is a problem of the div or the line being smaller than the space needed to render the text.
Check your styles for the following:
- A height too small to contain the text and its surrounding styles.
- A font size smaller than the smallest size the displayed font can display in.
- The height of the container not being an integer multiple of the height of the text.
Also check to see if the browser is substituting font sizes. Remember that users can change font sizes with a menu setting when they view your page.
Maybe the spatula has something to do with it.
