Re: [css-d] Span Container Background Issue

[jp bouyer]

 <p style="display:inline-block;background-color:red;">Some text<img
src="http://ak.imgfarm.com/images/travel/ExpediaSponsor.gif?24057304";
border="0"></p>

should work. If this is a isolated part of your site, you can remove the P's
display property but as you wrote it with a SPAN, I assume it's an inline
element of your page.
