I'm putting as all OS's since its an internet explorer bug and IE is present on all windows and a couple other OSs. I'm assuming this is 1.6-cvs since [[n:special:version]] says 1.6devel. This is my first bug report, so I hope I didn't fill this out wrong. When I inserted a centered picture into a table cell on wikinews (en) (via [[Image:Telephone-modele-W48.jpg|center|65px|Phone-us Please]]. well actually via a template that had the image link in there, but you get the point) It caused all of the left sided table row to run-into the right sided table row. This happens in both Monobook skin and cologne blue skin(more noticable in monobook. however the search bar on Cologne seems to have a similiar issue in IE) on internet explorer(6 sp2). it does not happen on firefox (tested 1.5). I fixed the problem by just using <center> to center the image. See: http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=184205 - revision of main page where it happened http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Template:FrontPageHotlineMenu - template transcluded that caused it. this was the revision used. Currently don't use the template for anything. This bug was not found by me, but [[Wikinews:User:BrianNewZealand]] as I don't generally use internet explorer. The only thing that i could think that might possibly cause it is /* emulate center */ .center { width: 100%; text-align: center; } *.center * { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } from http://en.wikinews.org/skins-1.5/common/common.css?1 as i've heard of internet explorer going strange with widths for no apearent reason. This is all the info I could think to include in here. if anything else is needed let me know. [[n:user:bawolff]]
By the way I'm using Windows XP SP2 In case you didn't geuss already.
Changing to Windows XP, even thought it might cover more than one version of Windows. You can't call this an "all OS" problem if it affects one browser. It might not even affect IE for the Mac.
Ok that makes sense. Sorry about that, This is my first time reporting a bug.
Even in the previous revision, the images and some text in the right column spill over the edge. Can you check that this table is correctly laid out?
Created attachment 1264 [details] Good version where it worked like it should This is the good version, which is directly before the bad one. using IE tab in firefox
Created attachment 1265 [details] Bad version. where everything colides Bad version where everything collides (using IE tab in firefox)
Not for me. one wroks perfectly fine and the other one colides everywhere. Screenshot included. (using IE tab in firefox). Note: I didn't check table validity because I don't understand wiki table markup (sorry only html <table> markup).
Tryed to reproduce this at http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/User:Gangleri/tests/bugzilla/04439 Please read comments at Bug 4677: Provide a magic word __NOCITE__ ; disable the "cite" links at redirects best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
You said it was hard to replicate because the templates changed, in a comment on Bug 4677. For me the historical revission still has the table issue
(In reply to comment #9) > You said it was hard to replicate because the templates changed, in a comment on > Bug 4677. For me the historical revission still has the table issue Sorry Bawolff! I made all that work in Firefox. No chance there to reproduce the problem. Can *confirm* that the error exists in IE at the original url http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=184205 which shows now another content the attachement 1265. http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&diff=195367&oldid=184205 is a diff between the bogus version of Main Page and the actual one. *note* Please note that the diff in "reversed" order (values for diff and oldid are reversed) where the old revision renders at the bottom http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&diff=184205&oldid=195367 shows the same rendering problem in IE as your original url http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=184205 and includes also the diffs. The problem is reduced now to the difference of the [[s:template:FrontPageHotlineMenu]] and the substitution at the [[s:Main_page]]. This is simulated at http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3AFrontPageHotlineMenu&diff=196586&oldid=184206 *localized the bug* http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AGangleri%2Ftests%2FMain_Page&diff=196607&oldid=196598 It seams that "|center" in Image:Telephone-modele-W48.jpg|center|65px|Phone-us Please is the problem for the original problem. Best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]

Over 2 years since this was reported - is this still a problem? I don't have XP anymore so can't test it.
Created attachment 11215 [details] The "bad version" on IE 6, Win XP SP3, in 2012 – looks funny, but okay I've just looked at the original revision[1] on IE 6 (installed via Multiple IEs) on Windows XP SP3, as an anonymous user. Looks slightly funny, but mostly okay; I don't see the issue. Can this be closed now? [1] http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=184205
Created attachment 11216 [details] The "bad version" on IE 6, Win XP SP3, in 2012 – low res – still okay And here's the same on a lower resolution (the smallest one that gives no horizontal scrollbar). There is some overlap, but it's maybe 10 pixels, I don't think it's worth debugging, given it's IE 6.
(Ah, it looks about the same on Monobook as on Vector – a tiny overlap.)
WONTFIXing per above.
