HTML alignment glitch

kerriganm · 02-06-2005, 11:03 AM

Can anyone help me out? I'm on a Mac. On this page: http://home.earthlink.net/~kerriganm...ticlepage.html, in the left column, the "Related Articles" box is showing up halfway down the page when I view it in IE 5.2 or Mozilla 1.7.2. It's top aligned when I view it in Safari, like it's supposed to be. I can't understand why it's not top aligned when viewed in the other browsers. Could you please take a look and see if you can find my mistake? I'd also appreciate it if someone could tell me how it looks on a PC, and let me know what browser you're using. Thanks so much!!

I can't really tell you why this might be the case, but I've attatched a shot of the page loaded in firefox under windows XP.

According to Microsoft Frontpage, the reason why the "Related Articles" box couldn't be at the top with the lemon picture is because you somehow created another column/cell under the lemon picture. It does not make sense how the column with the lemons got so long in height; when I checked the properties of the cell, the height was only 134.. I fixed the problem by cutting the "Related Articles" box and pasting it in the same column with the lemons. This is how it turned out.

Hope this helped. http://img213.exs.cx/img213/3623/articlep4rr.jpg

I agree with cremesoda. This is placed in the wrong cell. Move it to the cell above.
