Firefox Browser Usage and Support Forum

I'm experiencing a very stange problem when displaying images with a hyperlink in Internet Explorer.

For exmaple if I have the following it works,: -

<img src="images/profiles/thumb_HT02849927779F.jpg" />

If I have this:

<a href="images/profiles/HT02849927779F.jpg"><img src="images/profiles/thumb_HT02849927779F.jpg" /></a>

Then no images is displayed. If I look at the HTML I have this: -

<a href="images/profiles/HT02849927779F.jpg">

</a>

So it's actually removed the image tag - very odd me thinks!

If I have this code: -

<img src="images/profiles/thumb_HT02849927779F.jpg" />

<a href="images/profiles/HT02849927779F.jpg"><img src="images/profiles/thumb_HT02849927779F.jpg" /></a>

Then both images are displayed! I guess because the image is being cached from the first <img> tag.

Does anyone have a clue what's going on here, cos I haven't the faintest. What's even stranger is this problem is only happening with IE, it works fine in Firefox!

Any ideas are greatly received

Thanks,
