Content blocks behave strange!!!

Permalink
Hi all

I just tried to set up a "about us" page. It worked fine with the old pictures, but now that I added new pics, it's just plain weird - the blocks keep moving in position!

I tried one big content block first, adding "Content", and then just adding all the pics and contact info. It didn't work - every second picture got moved to the right, and up - so I actually made a single content block for every picture / info. Still, same crap... I then even added an empty line between every two pictures - nothing.

still looks like this:

http://www.c-ex-c.org/Testsite_concrete5/index.php/_ber_uns/ansprec...

What is that? When entering editing mode, they look fine: picture to the left, and then the info to the right. One below the other, all leftbound.

help!

thanx

I think you've got the align left property set on those pictures, and they may be taller than what you're replacing.

This is just how HTML lays out.. if it CAN float a picture left of the content, it will - even if its another picture it's floating...

so throw some returns in there.. tinyMCE does a single line return if you hit Ctrl-Return. with some space between your paragraphs/pics that should stop.

Ok, I fixed it, thanx for the help.

Another question though: Why does the site

http://www.c-ex-c.org/Testsite_concrete5/index.php/_ber_uns/ansprec...

look different in IE and Firefox/Opera? Look at the spaces between the pictures... in FF/Opera, they're perfect, but in IE, they're far too big...

Haha, IE strikes again!

Seriously though, try swapping your doctype to loose and see if that works.

Edit: Attempted to post the code but the forums are messing with it.

Sorry, tested it and changing the doctype won't do what you need.

I looked at your code though - you're using a lot of line breaks, etc. for positioning. This is probably why you see a difference in IE.

Instead, wrap each photo/contact info in a div (or table as it's TinyMce) and position that div/table appropriately.

Hi jizzle

thanx for the tip - I inserted all the info into tables.

But now, the tables show up NEXT to each other, not one below the other...(have a look at the site).

How do I get them to show up in one column, one below the other?

thanx a load!
