What is your monitor resolution set at? (see instruction if need be)

With all the experimentation that was being done with placing photos side by side, Internet Explorer was the only browser that provided a scroll bar on the horizontal axis when the photos were wider than the screen. Firefox and Google Chrome both stacked the photos one on top of another, Didn't like that.

For those of you that may have had problems viewing the photos side by side, I'll bet you weren't using Internet Explorer.

Worked great on my Mac

Safari 4 (beta), Mac OS X 10.5.6

I wonder how it works under Safari for the PC?

My firefox is 3.05 with no scroll bar, stacked photos. I'm going to upgrade both Safari and Firefox to see what happens.

This exercise shows why different folks see things differently with the images exceed the screen resolution width.

Upgraded both Firefox, 3.0.8 and Safari 3.2.2 and no improvement. Still stacked vs. side by side.

Runing Vista Home SP1

I'll stick with IE 7. I get spell check with it also....when I remember to run it!

And it goes without saying, window 'width'.

Hi,

I'm running beta versions of Firefox and Safari and they along with the latest official releases Firefox all show the same thing.

Now for all you IE fans I see the same thing with IE8. The scroll bar doesn't let you see two images side by side it just slides a very small amount to the right... and as you get close to being wide enough to see them both the scroll bar goes away.

Sorry I don't have IE7 on my system anymore nor do I have the older version of Safari to look at.

I'm running xp sp3 and a video card with ATI 3800 chipset.

I have my firefox set for automatic spell check as I type but I still mange to mangle my words.

What do you mean by 'stacked'? Overlapping, or one above the other? If the window is not wide enough to display them side by side, the rightmost pix will slip BELOW the left one. You can see this effect by narrowing the window width while displaying my previous post.(#151 in restoration of my greenie thread)

By stacked, I did mean one above the other, without overlap. IE Explorer lets you narrow the screen down yet still maintain the horizontal scroll bar. It won't stack the photos one above the other EVEN on post 151 of greenie thread. It won't stack them because that's not the "design intent" of the HTML code. The design intent was side by side.
