Troubleshooting a CSS problem with a unordered list inside a div in Internet Explorer

I struggle with debugging IE because I simply can't stand it and prefer not to deal with it.

Anyways, I'm working on a treeview plugin and everything seems to be in order...

However, there's an issue where it appears completely messed up only in IE7 (not sure about IE6, but who even uses that anymore).

.

Does anyone have any insights on how to resolve this or why it's misbehaving?

Here's the HTML & CSS example


CSS

body{
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
}

.vbc-treeview{
    font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;
    font-size: 12px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    padding-top: 0px;
    overflow: auto;

    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;

    border: 1px solid #828790;
    margin: 5px;

}

.vbc-treeview ul{
    list-style-type: none;
    margin: 0px;
    margin-left: 20px;
    margin-top: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
    position: relative;
}
...
...


HTML

<div class="tree vbc-treeview">
    <ul>
        <div class="tv-sibling tv-sibling-vertical tv-sibling-first" style="height: 609px;"></div>
        <li class="tv-expanded">
            <div class="tv-collapse tv-expanded"></div>
            ...
            ...
        </li>
        ...
        ...
   
</div>

Answer №1

One possible solution is to include position:relative in the parent div.

Answer №2

The issue lies in using position: relative; on the elements.

Simply remove this property and the problem should be resolved.

Additionally, consider adding zoom: 1 to these specific elements to test if it resolves the issue.
