IE7 “em” Tags & Twitter
July 1st, 2008I’ve finally managed to track down the issue with Internet Explorer 7 which was cropping the first image on the site. It’s a known issue when using italic text when next to a floating image which thus explains why it appeared to be an intermittent problem. I’m not sure why my Google searches didn’t point me in the right direction sooner but nevermind, all is well in the end, at least with Firefox and IE7!
The solution: I’ve added in “position:relative” to my CSS image class.
Also, I’ve been using Twitter for a little while now and it’s a handy little micro-blogging service which I think will be beneficial to Consolation Prize, so the sidebar now contains my latest three “Tweets”. If you’re a Twitter user then look me up, follow my updates, and I’ll of course reciprocate your kindness.
