Thanks for your quick response.
Forgot to mention, I am testing with IE 6.0. It seems this is bug in IE 6.0. Please suggest if any pointer .

Saleem, only discussion about the development of this forum should go in the Accessify Forum area. Your questions doesn't appear to relate directly to accessibility so it belongs in Web Technology. Thanks!
I hope you get a response to your question.

Thanks all,
I found that IE 6 has bug with div tag. It is working with following patch
<script type="text/javascript">
// IE 6 hack to allow copy/paste
if (window.createPopup && document.compatMode &&
document.compatMode=="CSS1Compat")
{
document.onreadystatechange = onresize = function fixIE6AbsPos()
{
if (!document.body) return;
if (document.body.style.margin != "0px") document.body.style.margin = 0;
onresize = null;
document.body.style.height = 0;
setTimeout(function(){ document.body.style.height =
document.documentElement.scrollHeight+'px'; }, 1);
setTimeout(function(){ onresize = fixIE6AbsPos; }, 100);
}
}
</script>

Saleem, in my view rendering problems with versions of Internet Explorer (IE) are best dealt with by a specific style sheet introduced in the <head> section of your page.
So if the CSS you use for the page normally is general.css, and you need to modify that with some different CSS for IE 6 or earlier, in a style sheet called iemodify.css, you could include in the <head>
| Code: |
| <link href="general.css" rel="stylesheet"type="text/css" media="screen">
<!--[if lte IE 6]> <link rel="stylesheet" href="iemodify.css" type="text/css"> <![endif]--> |
You mention that you are testing in IE 6. Don't forget you should test in other versions of IE; IE Tester will let you do that. It is a good idea to check in other major browsers, such as Opera, Firefox, and Safari, too.

It is working fine with other browser and versions of IE. Using some tool it is always better to use the original browser on different machine.
Thanks for youe suggations.
