Why in IE do image tags (16x16icon) want to force the titles of the articles to the right?
(when i view it in Firefox its formated right).
Thanks i've been stuck on this for an hour.

[real_illusions]

tried it in both browsers and it looks the same to me in both.

it was like spot the difference but i couldn't find any differences..

maybe its the align="center" in the table. explorer may read that, but firefox doesn't.

i usually put align in both tr and td, not in the table. even if its the same, like center, left or right etc..and things turn out the same in both explorer and firefox.

see if that does anything.

nope its something with the image expanding it. i have no idea why its doing it.

try putting putting width="16" height="16" in the image tag. cant see that being the problem however.

[Templarian]

already tried it also tried to set vspace and hspace to 0. is their anything wrong in the formating of the tables that i'm not seeing?


<table width="466" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="5" height="18" background="images/index_18.gif"></td>
<td width="18" background="images/index_19.gif"><img src="parts/i/i_arrowr.gif"></td>
<td width="438" background="images/index_19.gif"><span class="article_title">11-20-05 Site Maintnance</span><span class="article_author">&nbsp;Author,&nbsp;</span><a href="forum/member.php?userid=1">Faded Pixel</a></td>
<td width="5" background="images/index_23.gif"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td background="images/index_20.gif" class="article_body"></td>
<td colspan="3" align="left" valign="top" background="images/index_21.gif" class="article_body">
If you notice things are looking weird on some of the pages, dont fear, its just we are doing some maintnance to the PHP Files.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="4" height="5" background="images/index_22.gif" class="article_body"></td>
</tr>
</table><br>

Try adding a DTD to your HTML page(s). That might help?

Check out:

if you need it

nope didnt do anything.

[revelations1318]

make the entire header for the article a td, then put two <divs> inside it (one for arrow, one for title).....that should sort it out. HTML always likes to force spaces around images, CSS may help.

thanks rev didnt even think of not using of not using a table to split up the icon and title.
