MARQUEE Issue on IE

[flashfan]

The following code is fine on FireFox; but the marquee
looks too narrow on IE, don't know why. Could anybody help?

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 width="100%">
<tbody>
<tr bgcolor="#4791C5">
<td colspan="2"><img src="/images/spacer.gif" height=1 width="770">
</td>
</tr>
<tr bgcolor="#4791C5">
<td align=left style="padding-left:10px;height:20px;border-bottom:1px solid #10659E">Account: 12345</td>
<td align=right style="padding-left:10px;height:20px;border-bottom:1px solid #10659E"><MARQUEE WIDTH=100% BEHAVIOR=SCROLL BGCOLOR=#4791C5>Alert messages goes here...</MARQUEE></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

try quoting all your values.

It doesn't help by quoting all attributes.

[flashfan]

<td align="left" ...><nobr>Account Number: ..</nobr></td>
<td width="100%" align="right" ..>..</td>

will fix the issue. Still don't know the reason.

Unless you specifically assign the width, the browser will try to give each cell a nice "average" that it sees fit and fair. You can't count on every browser guesstimating the same way...
