I have an issue with an image that just doesn't show up in IE6-8 no matter what I do. I even tried just putting in the url for the image and it still wouldn't show it. I took it into Photoshop to make sure it was properly saved as a jpeg and it is.
The file validates (with some minor color warnings).
<a href="http://mandp.lamster.org/contacts.shtml">page with problem</a>
and the photo alone is at
<a href="http://mandp.lamster.org/images/MP65APhoto.jpg" title="photo only">photo only</a>
Another issue with the url for the page is that I can't seem to get the width of the right pane smaller.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks/Hal

man, thats a weird IE thing
man, thats a weird IE thing going on there. To reduce the size of the left pane, simply change the width of #rightPane. I changed it to 500px wide, and it changed. Try and contruct the img tag to look like this and see if that helps.
<img src="images/MP65APhoto.jpg" height="370px" width="200px" style="padding-right: 10px;" />

Yes it is live. I just
Yes it is live. I just checked the source in FF and it is showing the same url as you posted:
But why doesn't http://mandp.lamster.org/images/MP65APhoto.jpg that work either? It must be something with the image itself. And I can't figure out what.

found the problem
Finally got it fixedl. I had brought it into photoshop and saved it as a jpeg but for some reason IE 6-8 didn't like it. FF, Safari and Chrome didn't have a problem with it. I just brought it into Fireworks and exported it out as a jpeg and NOW IT WORKS.
As usual IE is brain dead. Ughhhhhh.

dude, that's weird.
dude, that's weird. from-now-on, use PS and do save-for-web to save your web images. That may have been the strangest thing ive seen in awhile.
