Question

<div id="simg1" style="display: inline">
<img src="images/image.jpg">
</div>
<div id="sbdy"><a href="www.google.com">some text</a></div>

CSS Style:

#simg1 {
background-color: #fff;
    float: left;
    width: 85px;
    height: 80px;
    border-width:5px;

    border-right: solid 2px #fdd61e;
    border-left-top: solid 25px #fdd61e;
    border-left: solid 3px #fdd61e;
    border-top: solid 3px #fdd61e;
    border-bottom: solid 3px #fdd61e;
    border-radius: 15px 0px 0px 15px;
    overflow: hidden;
}
#sbdy {
background-color: #fff;
    position: relative;
    color: #000;
    float: left;
    width: 160px;
    height: 75px;
    padding: 5px 6px 0px 2px;
    border-right: solid 3px #fdd61e;    
    border-top: solid 3px #fdd61e;
    border-bottom: solid 3px #fdd61e;
    border-top-right-radius: 15px 15px;
    border-bottom-right-radius: 15px 15px;  
}

This code works fine in every browser, but in IE, the text div is showing up beneath the image. There is no problem with the width since I have tested with more width too. I have tried everything but cannot figure out how to fix this bug.

Answer 1

There’s a double float margin bug
that’s neutralized with display:inline
and a standards DOCTYPE. – Krof
