Using Netscape 6.1 on WinME. Compare above page in N6.1 and IE 5.5. Note that arrows that are clearly visible in IE 5.5 have their right edges obscured by the WTC photo in N6.1.
Eric, you should know better than to file an evangelism bug in Buzilla for Netscape 6.1! CNN => P1 Anyway, here is the problem. <table width="310" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#CC0000" class="mainpagemenu"> <a href="invest.section.html" class="mainmenu" style= "padding-left:5px ; padding-right:5px"> INVESTIGATION&nbsp; </a> </td> <!-- ***** NOTE THAT THE ORIGINAL SOURCE HAS width="310" for the next cell and all other cells like this in the page. This is a horribly invalid width. The correct width is the width of the image for the arrow.new.gif. Correcting this problem solves the reported problem. Note that the page as coded does not display as the author intended even in Internet Exploder. ****** --> <td bgcolor="#003366" width="310" align="right"> <a href="invest.section.html"> <img src="/SPECIALS/2001/trade.center/images/arrow.new.gif" width="20" height="20" border="0"> </a> </td> </tr> </table> In general this page has several unnecessary HTML errors. FORM Tags improperly nested outside of TR tags in TABLEs, closing DIV tags without beginning DIV tags, etc. I will attach a corrected version of the page.
