[e-mail], could you test this again with a current build

Comment 5

[nmichael]

What do you mean by current build?  I am not a mozilla developer just a user so
please clarify.  I am now using version:
Mozilla 1.3
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312

and the bug is still there.

I also have this problem on the espn left side menus, ex.
http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/index
The left side menus do not line up correctly with text or page.  
Also on this page the color blocks on left side do not line up:
http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/clubhouse?team=cin

Using:
Mozilla 1.4rc2
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030612
clean install
Java 1.4.2b

Just noticed as a workaround that if you select "Text Zoom" 90% it looks correct.

I can confirm the problem with the last URL Geoff mentioned. This is a duplicate
 of bug 24409...basically espn.com is detecting Mozilla as Netscape 4 and
generating illegal HTML code as a result. I'm going to mark it a dupe of that
bug, unless anyone can confirm it isn't the case. At this point it's an
evangelism issue to get ESPN to use HTML and JavaScript that doesn't knowingly
break in Mozilla. I realize this might not be what you want to hear, but Mozilla
is committed to supporting official standards, and doing what the ESPN site asks
would break that commitment.
