Can someone please help me with a CSS problem with IE6. The problem is with
the following site.
www.vistahelp.ca
The text in the top right ("Internet help resource for Windows Vista")
doesn't wrap properly in IE6 only. In Firefox and IE7 beta it works
properly. As you increase the text size in your browser in IE6 it wraps a
word down to the next line and leaves part of the same word on the top line.
In the other browsers it wraps cleanly at the word breaks i.e. the whole
word moves down to the next line and doesn't leave part of the word on the
top line. Also on some pc's only, again with IE6 only, the same text is not
right justified. It is in other browsers. It is on some pc's with IE6.
Many thanks in advance. I'm new to CSS and struggling with it :-)

Expression Web Designer Beta by Microsoft. I have tried editing the code by
hand to fix it. I have run the code through several online code checkers and
it has no errors. I think it is something in the way IE6 interprets the
code. IE6 has many idiosyncrasies that need to be coded around. This is
probably one of them but I don't know the workaround. EWD actually has an
option to check the code for IE6 compatibility but that comes up with no
errors.

I thought tables were deprecated with CSS. I'll try it and see what happens.
Thanks,

Try setting up the text on that line into a two-cell table. Look for a
setting to set the cell properties to "no wrap". That should resolve
the
issue for IE.
