i just made new website and there's only one problem, scrolling don't work in IE for MacOSX. It works on NS2-7PC, IE5-6PC, all Operas etc. What could be problem? All code is XHTML anc CSS2 compliant?

I have tried to take different parts away, put it just then helps, when everything inside <body> is away.

Is there any known bug for this? Or just me?

There's your problem. Internet Explorer often has trouble with these types of scripts/languages.

Could you provide a link or post some screenshots? It would help to have some code fragments or a bit more of an idea how you have put your page together.

Sorry, that was my poor attempt at humor. Microsoft just laughs at being compliant!

Anyway, are you using absolute-positioned content? I have run into problems with this on Internet Explorer before. It would display like it meant to show the rest of the content off-screen, but you couldn't scroll. I got around this by switching to relative positioning on the content I was having problems with. Post your site/source so we can take a better look at it.

thx for advice! It helped a lot!

I checked 51st time all the code and found finally the bug. There has left "overflow" tag to the css file IE is so stupid when you refresh (even with alt+refresh) it sometimes don't load included files.

Sry i couldn't show the site for you, it's commercial site and just in development. And because it's uses many server-side rules and different css/js files, it would be too big work to make working "static" version of it.
