A reader has just brought to my attention that IE7 on Windows XP Professional, ver 2002, SP 2 displays pages such as http://beachpaper.com/issues/current/page28.html to look like beachpaper.com/zimgnav/bperror.jpg, by pushing the large JPG to the right. However, the home page, beachpaper.com, displays correctly for him and it’s built from the same template. I built it using GoLive on a Mac and it looks fine in that outdated IE and all other browsers I’ve ever tried, so I’m at a loss at what to do. I ran it through the W3C validator and didn’t see any likely suspects. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    I went to a page on your site that didn’t display correctly in IE, saved the source and DL’d the CSS and applied it to the page… and I’ve got the issue duplicated.

    And I think I found the problem.

    The following line is causing the issue:

    <td rowspan="3" colspan="3" valign="top" width="800"><!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="Region" -->

    If you remove the colspan=”3″ call, and make it look like this:

    <td rowspan="3" valign="top" width="800"><!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="Region" -->

    Well, then everything displays properly for me.

    I’d like to spend more time on it, but I hope this helps.
