How come the Latest News section in the upper left corner of tbe home page has its text and picture on the same left-hand side overlapping each other? The picture was once on the left and the text was on the right, but not any more. Is it a browser setting,or a bug? Any ideas?
 
I checked it out on my computer and everything seems normal. I tried a couple of times and each time the photo's appeared far left with the text to the right of the photo's.

I even waited for the update and change of topics and all seems normal ;shrug

I will move this up into our "Site Help & Feedback" forum hopefully this is a simple answer and solution.

I am running Vista 64 and the 64 bit beta version of Explorer. I know it has issues but this doesn't seem to be a complicated thing. I just opened your web page from Safari and it opened just fine.


This is probably a "feature" of the beta 64 bit Explorer thanks for checking. I should of tried that sooner.

Save the wave!
 
This problem is a result of this web page being designed for an older version of Internet Explorer.

This is the help and support solution:
Help and Support

This is how I solved my problem.

If the problem only occurs on a few Web sites, and Internet Explorer is still usable when you open these Web sites, turn on Compatibility View for only the Web sites that are causing a problem. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. In Internet Explorer, open a Web site that is causing a problem.
  2. On the Tools menu, click Compatibility View.
    Note If Compatibility View is not available, the Web site only runs in Compatibility View or Internet Explorer 8 mode. If this is true for you, try Method 1A.
  3. Repeat steps a and b for each Web site that is causing a problem.
    Internet Explorer 8 now displays these Web sites like Internet Explorer 7. Use the Web sites that caused the problem and verify that you can now use them correctly. Then see Method A verification and next steps.
Hope this helps others!

It's an Internet Explorer 8 issue. I'm looking into it.
 
Yes ok. I did the above suggested compatability switch and the text graphic problem went away. The website did say it is related to IE8 and it is a result of something on the web page that was designed for older browsers.
Just trying to help. Thanks for the reply...good luck!
