68742 - ablecomm.com - Bad layout exhibited on page

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect, P4)

Description

[lidl]

When visiting this website with Netscape 4.75, the text of the
web page is divided into two groups, one on the left that flows
around several images, and a second column on the right, with
a gray background.

If this Web page is visited with a recent version of the mozilla
code (I cvs updated around 3:00pm today -- Feb 13, 2001), the
page layout is mostly correct.

However, the text to the right of the "Worth Clicking At" image
enters into the far right column, overwriting the text there.

I don't know if this a brokenness in the web page or the browser
build, but it exists.

I can confirm this with 2001021206 on NT. This seems to be caused by a missing
or wrong placed </center> There are some nesting errors in this page. If i put
one in myself, before that text block, then the problem is solved.

malformed html. see
