rondog Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Ive noticed this is only a problem in IE6(and probably some more older browsers)...Firefox 3 and IE 7 it works fine. Visit this site: (you will have to do it twice because you need to login first.) http://ronnieswietek.com/flashden/newsletter/newsletter.php?do=preview&id=2 u: admin p: testadmin I put a blue background on the div so you can understand what I am talking about. If you look at it in firefox, the blue covers the whole newsletter, text and images, but if you look at it in IE, it only does a small portion of it...Can anyone figure out this mystery??? CSS for that section: #newsletter_subject { padding: 5px; font-size: 18px; color: #ffffff; background-color:#999999; } #newsletter_preview { overflow: auto; background-color:#000066; } #recipients { padding: 5px; font-size: 18px; color: #ffffff; background-color:#999999; } and then the corresponding html: <div id="newsletter_subject">flashden newsletter!</div> <br> <div id="newsletter_preview"><font size="6"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 255, 153); font-family: georgia;">flashden <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">is</span> <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">awesome</span> <span style="font-family: impact; font-style: italic; text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(153, 255, 0); background-color: rgb(0, 51, 204);">I</span>!</span></font><br> <br> <img style="width: 202px; height: 261px;" alt="" src="http://flashden.net/new/site_flashden.net/interface/logo_top.gif" align="left"><br> </div> <br> <div id="recipients">This Newsletter WILL be sent to the following users:</div> etc.....

TheFilmGod Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Why are you using <br />? Do not use html markup to create padding or vertical whitespace. You can easily use css by using css padding: 10px 0 0 0; I wish I could help you further, but I do not have IE6 anymore. I upgraded to IE7 because I have choosen to stop catering for IE6 users.
