page displays fine in any browser except IE, any idea why?

[PHPGeek80]

Hi,

 

I’m generating an html page using php. The html page displays the logo image with extra space below when using Internet Explorer, in other browsers the extra space below doesnt exist. I cannot work out for the life of my why Internet Explorer is adding this extra space. Does anyone have any input on this?

Any help to rectify this would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

which other browsers does it work fine with?

 

It isn't related to PHP,

 

but in your css you mignt want to add...

 

padding: 0px;

I have tested this site in:

 

Firefox, Safari, Netscape and Opera.

 

They all display the page fine with no extra space below the logo image.

I think its because you specified height:100% in the style sheet for your body and html tag try removing that and see if it works

I believe it has something to do with how ie treats images. Try adding "display:block;" to the css for the image.

Thanks for your feedback but, none of the advice given has worked.

 

Anything else that could cause this?

 

Please note: When i remove the doctype tag from the html, the page is displayed correctly.

I have had the same problem before. It was a problem with the table properties. Have you tried setting the cell background to be the logo image? That may indicated any sizing issues with the table.

[PHPGeek80]

nope, sorry didnt work.

 

I basically want the top portion to have a height of 70 pixels. Is this possible?

 

Thanks.

[adam291086]

No it shouldn't be. Something is conflicting some where. What is the height of the image? That may be causing it

[PHPGeek80]

the image height is 70px, its so strange.

[adam291086]

just looking at the source code through your link

 

<td valign="top" style="background-image: url(images/logo.png); height: 70px;"> 

 

change to

 

    <td height="70" valign="top"><img src ="images/logo.png" alt="" /></td>

[PHPGeek80]

Done but no change.

 

I cannot understand why this is.

[adam291086]

This is the wrong forum as well. Try putting a new table with one row and colum in the area for the logo. The add in the image into there and end the table. Therefore you have a page table and then a logo table, content table ect ect ect.

I have tried that but it doesnt work,

 

thanks for all your help. its must not be possible.
