July 18, 201016 yr Hi all wonder if you can give me a hand with this sometimes on first loading of site the text goes over the image refreshing fixes this but wondered if there is a way to stop it totally. It is the image of the brush next to the main text where the problem is occurring. http://www.gpwindows.co.uk/
July 18, 201016 yr You're using an old-fashioned table based layout, but a check with this validator didn't show any serious errors with the table codes although it did raise 11 errors and 23 warnings about other matters. http://validator.w3.org/ I didn't see the text over image in either IE7 or Firefox. Since one of the errors is that you used align="absmiddle" instead of align="middle" for the image of the brush, perhaps that affected some browsers. You are using HTML 4.01 doctype but you have closed tags with /> which is for XHTML instead of > for HTML. Images need alt="description" inside the img tag. You should learn to use divs and CSS instead of tables for layout which might load in a browser more easily.
August 1, 201016 yr Author Ok i have validated it all now and every page passes yet i still get this problem in chrome mostly when i open it in a new tab or window refresh fixes it but would prefer it didn't happen at all really
August 1, 201016 yr Just had a look on Chrome 5, Mac OS X and couldn't replicate your problem. Where exactly is it occurring on the site?
August 1, 201016 yr It only happens on the main homepage here is a screen not happening for me in firefox or ie
August 1, 201016 yr Certainly ok for me in Chrome still, tried loading several times: You could put the image inside it's own div with a specified height and width. This way, if the text loads before the image, there's no jumping around of text in any browser. This may be what's causing the issue.
