Bug in IE7? margin/padding

Bug in IE7? margin/padding

am 24.05.2007 20:39:29 von Arto Steiner

Hello again

URL: http://www.thinklab-consulting.ch/demo02/

On IE7 I get the effect, that the gray horizontal "bar" on the
left doesn't always have the same width when viewing the site
with IE7. FF is ok.

Please compare the images to see what effect I mean:

Vertical bar behind images as wanted:

Vertical bar too narrow:

Thanks for any advice!

Hi Arto,
I had a similar problem.
If you scale down the width of your IE Browser very slowly, you will see
that there is a space appearing at the right side of the word portrait.
Just the same was in my style sheet and Beauregard told me to minimize
px styling - better avoid it.
I exchanged as much as possible to em and the space is not appearing
now. And - your gray horizontal "bar" jumps when the space appears.

Hope that helps
Knut

And if the horizontal spacing is not required to be a fixed width, use
percentages to set the spacing.
IE6 and earlier have a problem with rounding to integer values and that
can have odd effects. Apparently IE7 has merely changed the form of that
problem.
