Internet Explorer 5 running on MacOS 9.1 does not place scroll bars in the window for the page below when the content is heigher than the available screen:

http://www.cm-life.com/pages/newdesign/

The scroll bars appear once you:

A. Resize the window

B. Toggle the Explorer Bar on and off

The URLs to the CSS files I use are below:

@import
http://www.cm-life.com/pages/newdesign/css/layout/master.css

@import
http://www.cm-life.com/pages/newdesign/css/text/mainNav.css

@import
http://www.cm-life.com/pages/newdesign/css/text/frontpage.css

IE 5/Mac doesn't seem to recognize the full height of the absolutely positioned DIV.

Has anyone heard of this being a bug or know of a workaround? I've done some searching here at the forum but found nothing about this subject, and even searched from www.alistapart.com and still found nothing.
