Thierry yes, I can see the logos pic when the bug occurs. I know of these threads confirmed by OP http://archivist.incutio.com/viewlist/css-discuss/61585 http://archivist.incutio.com/viewlist/css-discuss/57494 no reaction http://archivist.incutio.com/viewlist/css-discuss/59324 so there is not much evidence for this alt thing. I think it's not a float drop as usual, as it is not reproducible locally. Those seeing it online cannot see it twice in one session, only initially. Possibly it's related to the incremental rendering of big pages plus connection plus cache. Clearing the cache in IE should have the same effect, but no. Once the page was rendered, the float drop is gone. That's why I had to rename the folder each time to see the bug. And with an empty alt string, the float drop vanishes, here on my side at least. If this is real, it must be related to the problem with the missing image you are mentioning. Maybe there is a short moment of ambivalence where IE does not really know if it is there or not. regards Ingo -- http://www.satzansatz.de/css.html ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
