Odd html issue - seems to be IE specific

edanto

I'm making an eBulletin for work, using a mass mailing tool inside Salesforce called Vertical Response. I started off with one of their templates, made minor changes to it in Kompozer and in testing realised that the display looks funny in IE compared to chrome and FF.

I hope this link works - perhaps it only works on my IP as I'm logged in to the system now. I can post the code as an attachment if that's the case.

As you'll see, the problem is around the column proportions. The blue column should only be 30% of the width, but for some reason displays much wider in IE. There could be something in the html forcing that to happen, but well I don't speak html well and could do with some help please.

cheers

From what I can tell, you are trying to put in the same image twice, but only one is appearing for some reason. As you have put them right beside each other without a space, it is forcing the the column to expand as it is trying to render the images side by side.

Search for this line here:

You have a table with 2 cells. Both the table and the first cell have a pixel width applied to them, so I don't know if the percentage declaration of the second cell will take affect at all.

thanks I'll get a chance to check that out this afternoon

Thanks very much, that invisible image was the problem and it's fixed up now.
