Highlighting in NewBB with IE

A couple of my users (at scenespot.org) have been complaining about highlighting within the forums while using IE. They go to highlight one word, and pretty much the whole page seems to highlight.

For the most part, I don't experience the same behavior here.

Is that potentially a theme issue? Or is that a bug that might have been squashed with 2.0.6? I'm currently using 2.0.5 on my site.

Any theories?

Actually...it's not limited to the forums.

I did some experimentation with the site. If I change the default theme to the default theme, the behavior ceases. Thats why I thought, perhaps, that it was a theme issue.

So it must be the theme.

Does anyone have any idea what HTML errors could cause such a behavior? I need to tweak my theme so this behavior doesn't happen anymore.

What, specifically, should I be checking about the DIV tags?

Re: Highlighting in NewBB with IE

I found a reference to a problem similar to yours in the css-discuss mailing list archives when dealing with absolutely positioned
tags.

CSS-Discuss: Unselectable text bug in IE? - the solution provided there was to add a 1px top margin to the body tag in your css:
body {margin-top:1px;}

That seems to have fixed some errors.

I seem to be having other problems with the PHPSESSID...so I'm deferring this to a new topic. Once I get that settled, I'll return to figuring out if my problem is still truly a theme problem.
