    HTML formatting screwed by anchor line

    This cut n paste line (not my code) keeps ignoring my CSS, image should appear in a column but keeps centralising on page. All quotes balanced ok so can't for the life of me see why. Ok if comment out the <a bit. Any brill ideas? Ta!

    <a href="#" onclick="window.open('https://www.sitelock.com/verify.php?site=','SiteLock','width=600,height=600 ,left=160,top=170');" ><img alt="website security" title="SiteLock" src="//shield.sitelock.com/shield/"/></a>

    There's nothing in the <a> tag which would cause that on its own. It's more likely the <a> tag is picking up some CSS on your page which is causing it. Without seeing it on the page it's hard to know what's happening exactly.

      Ta Bunk.

      Not that line at all, sorted it by just putting a <br> after previous left hand image. Some wierd thing with all this float left stuff. Why it seemed ok before when I deleted the<a I have no idea. Witchcraft! Tables were much simpler.

        Try using clear:left in the CSS for the element in question.

          I would open firebug and see what is scrwing with it. Probably something stupid like an unclosed div

            Cheers, clear:left is in CSS props for BR, that's why a BR fixed it.
