problems with white-space: nowrap property

Postby ruthann » Wed Mar 19, 2008 12:43 pm

Hi,

I am in the process of re-doing my site and I am trying to develop a basic site template. I am linking pages to an external .css for all formatting. I am just about done with this “outside the store” template; before I start plugging in content and doing the inside the store versions I want it perfect.

I have run into a problem that I can’t seem to solve and I was hoping that someone could give me some feedback.
The line that reads “Home | What's New | Specials | Artists | Join Mailing List | Contact Us | ----------
Has the following properties in the .css

#globalNav{
color: #cccccc;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 10px;
white-space: nowrap;
margin-left: 25px;
}

It shows up fine in firefox but the line breaks after Join Mailing list in IE7. There is plenty of space…I can’t figure what is causing it to break.

The full url is: http://www.medalia.net/working/index4.html

I am only interested in the top, bottom and sidebar…the content is just a place holder to see what a finished page might look like. If anyone notices any other problems with the template in other browsers I would appreciate knowing. Thanks for your help.

You just have a errant paragraph tag in there.

Code: Select all
<a href="/maillist.html">Join Mailing List</a></p>


The </p> should not be there.

Thanks so much!
I can't begin to tell you how many times I re-read the code looking for something out of place.

It's amazing what a fresh pair of eyes can do.

Now it's back to work for me...a little wiser and more than a bit chagrined.

Thanks again.
