css and IE6

G

Guest

I'm buiding a set of personal web pages using xhtml and css. My problem is
that some of the images will not display in IE6. They do display properly in
IE5 for Mac and every other browser I've tested on both Windows XP and Mac OS
X platforms. At the moment there are only 5 images. The page is divided
into css defined divs. The top banner has an animated gif which displays
properly. The centre column has a jpeg within a right floated nested div
which does not display and the right column, column div positions are
absolute has 3 gifs of which the top one does not display. One differrence
between those that do display and those that do not is that those that do are
external to my site ( an example being: <a
href="http://validator.w3c.org/check?uri=refer"><img border="0" width="88px"
height="31px" src="http://www.w3c.org/Icons/valid-xhtml10" alt="Valid XHTML
1.0" /></a> ). The boxes of the 2 images which do not display in IE6 are
collapsed but if you right-click in the approximate area where the images
should be you can download them. Does anyone have any idea as to what is
happening? You can refer to

on code used.

Validate your page using the W3C HTML and CSS validators. You have
errors. E.g., the syntax of the width attribute for the img tag is NOT
width="88px": it is width="88"; the px is only needed is CSS, in HTML
it is assumed.
