Divs, Images, and Browser combinations?

THE SITE

AOL 7 - WIN 2000
IE6 - WIN 2000
NETSCAPE 6.2 - WIN 2000
Netscape 7 - Mac

Why does the header not display correctly in different browsers? The total image length is about 760px, which should fit in an 800*600 res no problem. I understand the broweser window would have to be maximized but as far as I can tell they all are!

I'd rather there was a horizontal scrollbar than the right image not aligning!

you might try this

<div style="position:absolute; top:0px; left:0px; width:800px;">
<img src="img.jpg"><img src="img2.jpg">
</div>

that should keep it from wrapping, at least in ie.

the AOL window wasn't maximized, i'm staring at the max button

very valuable resource:

doesn't include some of the newer browsers, but certainly worth looking at

In netscape 7 on the Mac you have the side bar expanded so it is not a maximized window either.

Use a container div with a fixed width...no percintages and it should not wra on you at all.

You're right. I was looking at the very top-right of the pic.

Yeah, I realised this so I was wondering what I could do stop it wrapping. Like you said, it looks like a fixed width should fix it.

Thanks everyone.

The best way is CSS like suggested but with a lil extra added like;

<img src="1.jpg" style="top:0; left:0; position:absolute; height:100px; width:250px; border:0;" alt="Yaddayaddayadda" />

That should work in ALL browsers except NN4 series but who gives a **** about them anymore

I can't see how a fixed width, container DIV will work actually. I want the navigation image to be on the very right hand side regardless of resolution. A fixed, 800px DIV won't be at the right on 1024*768 for example.
