In IE 7, some of my pages are displaying white space at the top of the
page. Some pages show more than others... I cannot seem to figure out why. Two examples: http://labsysgrp.com/contact_us.php http://labsysgrp.com/newsletters_archived.htm Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks! |

I've not yet installed IE7, but after taking a look at your source code you do appear to have some incorrectly nested elements. You might want to use the Validator to see where the errors are as they could be the cause of your mysterious white space.

I also noticed that even in 900px wide browser windows the white text sections at the top obscure each other.

When I edited the comments out of the top section of your page
CODE <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html><!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/index.dwt" codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" --><head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="doctitle" --> <title>About Us</title> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> the white space in IE 7.0 went away. The following code seems to get rid of the white space in IE 7.0. CODE <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>About Us</title> <link href="css/print.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="print"> |

thanks for all the tips
What I find odd is that there are 20+ pages, with the same comments in the code that don't have this problem. These are all generated by a template I created in Dreamweaver. Eight of thirty-five pages are affected.... weirdness. Maybe if I modify the template file and resave it will affect something... hopefully not in a bad way |
