That was somewhat overoptimistic.

There is no reportable markup error and no formal error in CSS code either. The problem is apparently caused by the width="800%" attribute in the table where the two pictures are. That's not a reportable markup error (actually, markup validators accept virtually anything in the value of a width attribute, since it is of type CDATA). You probably meant "100%" or "80%" or "800" (I can't guess). A value of 800% means 8 times the available width, and browsers treat this in different ways - Firefox seems to more or less ignore it, while IE is doing something that might be seen as more logical. :-) -- Yucca, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
