Tables appear inline...

I have two tables that appear to be inline in MS engine.

My XHTML validates fine, but can't figure out the error...

If I put one break, it wont do anything. If I put several of them, then I can see the other table come out. (I have to put number of breaks so that it would oversize the first table)

Very strange. Never experienced that before.

What css are you using for the tables?

Have you tried table {display: block;}?

I don't have much CSS for tables. Nothing really that would be making a problem imo. I have background images for some cells and that is it.

The thing is, it's not only for tables, it's also for images. I have an image displaying inline with a table...

I read somewhere that it's some kind of IE bug for some of it's versions, but they didn't give a clear solution.

Also I noticed that if I just have a document with two tables and nothing besides it - it works fine, otherwise it's a total mess..

here is an actual beat down example of what I mean:

<removed url since the problem is solved>

note: this may appear fine for most of the users.

I use:
- Avant 8.01
- IE 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp1.020828-1920

You shouldn't post personal url's, since it is against the tos.

But since you have already, take out the "align="left"" part in the table tag and your problem will be solved (for IE6 anyway, didn't test it in anything else.)

MWpro, thank you so much! This just pissed me off, I had no idea what to do!

And I have no idea why I had align=left there either :¦

Thank you again!
