Hey guys,

Just f***ing with a website at the moment and it seems that upon a resize of IE window, the image (right alligned in the table) overlaps the text (left aligned in the table). Is there any way / option that im missing that tells the image to not overlap the text??

Image to try and explain what i mean : http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/5025/overlap1tj.th.jpg

tables are evil. are they in seperate cells?
edit: post a link so we can play with the code.

the error doesn't happen when you use firefox tho, only happens with IE

because IE is evil

I think they meant post your html source so they can check it over for errors/improve it

edit: no help but it's fine in opera too. Just put one of those "this site is best viewed with firefox, if you use IE you may be disadvantaged" things on there. Heaps of sites have that crap but with IE instead of FF. About time FF users took back the internet!

i would love to do that, but somehow i dont think my client would like me to :P

well then I guess you'll be fixing it all by yourself

edit: It's because you've got the picture in a table or a cell or something, and the text is just like background text. It's like putting an image on a page that has a background image. That image is obviously going to show up over the top of the background. You haven't told the browser that you want the picture beside the text as such, it's just that it happens to go that way in full screen. Put them both in the same table, but seperate cells

looks like you've got text floating inside a td along with another actual table. stick border="1" temporarily into your tables so you can easily see what's going on with them - I'm pretty sure that if you wrap that loose text into it's own td (before the td containing the images of course) you won't get that happening.

looks like it

no u r

Using fireworks ?

FP :D

it simple, u have used width=100%

change the 100% to a fixed size. eg. 300. ie. 300 pixels.
u might also want to use the nowrap tag.

Or learn CSS for defining page layouts :)

Its a s***load better than tables in most situations.

you definitely need to learn CSS and DIVs ;)

ended up putting 2 more tables in, one for pic and one for text and it works. Its only gota tide me over till i install the news system

thanks guys!

Works fine in IE for me.
