<span> tag line break in IE7

Question

My code is as follows:

<table> <tr> <td> <div id='lunch'><a href='Lunchplace.aspx?c=1&id=110'><img style='margin-top: 3px;' src='./images/115x52_Brasseriet.jpg'class='imagealign'/><b>Brasseriet</b><br />Köttbullar med gräddsås & kokt pota...&nbsp;<span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;float:right;'>80 Kr<span style='float:right;'>70 Kr</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />Kycklinggryta med örtcremefraishe &...&nbsp;<span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;float:right;'>80 Kr<span style='float:right;'>70 Kr</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />Paj, Lasagne, Räksallad, Kycklingsa...&nbsp;<span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;float:right;'>79 Kr<span style='margin-right:40px'></span></span></div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src='./images/siteimages/linje_430.jpg'/></td> </tr> </table> 

And it looks horrible in ie7. All other browsers render it correctly, but it seems that ie7 does line breaks on spans, although gaps are built-in elements. Ill add a picture so you can understand!

I am sure you can see my problem!

In response to the rocket ron Here is the code that now looks (autogeneration of some parts)

  Lunches = Lunches + "<table cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' width='500px;'><tr> <td><div id='lunch'><a href='Lunchplace.aspx?c=1&id=110'><img style='margin-top:3px;' src='./images/" + Img + "'class='imagealign'/><strong>" + k.Name + "</strong><br />" + checkLength(k.Monday) + "&nbsp;" + "<span style='color:#f29400; font-size:small; float:right;'>" + checkZero(k.Monday, k.PriceMonS, 1).ToString + checkZero(k.Monday, k.PriceMonGet, 2).ToString + "</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />" + checkLength(k.Monday2) + "<span style='color:#f29400; font-size:small;float:right;'>" + checkZero(k.Monday2, k.PriceMon2S, 1).ToString + checkZero(k.Monday2, k.PriceMon2Get, 2).ToString + "</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />" + checkLength(k.Monday3) + "<span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;float:right;'>" + checkZero(k.Monday3, k.PriceMon3S, 1).ToString + checkZero(k.Monday3, k.PriceMon3Get, 2).ToString + "</span></div></td></tr><tr><td><img src='./images/siteimages/linje_430.jpg'/></td></tr></table>" 

This was the code you said would work, but it looks the same as usual.

The source code is generated here:

 Lunches = Lunches + "<table> <tr> <td><div id='lunch'>" + "<a href='Lunchplace.aspx?c=" + city.ToString + "&id=" + k.ResturantID.ToString() + "'><img style='margin-top: 3px;' src='./images/" + Img + "'class='imagealign'/>" + "<b>" + k.Name + "</b>" + "<br />" + checkLength(k.Monday) + "&nbsp;" + "<span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;text-align:right;'>" + checkZero(k.Monday, k.PriceMonS, 1).ToString + checkZero(k.Monday, k.PriceMonGet, 2).ToString + "</span><br />" + checkLength(k.Monday2) + "&nbsp;" + "<span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;text-align:right'>" + checkZero(k.Monday2, k.PriceMon2S, 1).ToString + checkZero(k.Monday2, k.PriceMon2Get, 2).ToString + "</span><br />" + checkLength(k.Monday3) + "&nbsp;" + "<span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;text-align:right;'>" + checkZero(k.Monday3, k.PriceMon3S, 1).ToString + checkZero(k.Monday3, k.PriceMon3Get, 2).ToString + "</span></div></td></tr><tr><td><img src='./images/siteimages/linje_430.jpg'/></td></tr></table>" 

Answer 1

In your "inner" range there is a css float property: right; - this causes line breaks in IE

the code below should work.

 <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td> <div id="lunch"> <a href='Lunchplace.aspx?c=1&id=110'><img style="margin-top: 3px;" src="./images/115x52_Brasseriet.jpg'class='imagealign"/><strong>Brasseriet</strong> <br />Köttbullar med gräddsås &amp; kokt pota... &nbsp; <span style="color:#f29400; font-size:small; float:right;">80 Kr<span style="margin-left:20px;">70 Kr</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span> <br />Kycklinggryta med örtcremefraishe &amp;... &nbsp; <span style="color:#f29400; font-size:small;float:right;">80 Kr<span style="margin-left:20px;">70 Kr</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span> <br />Paj, Lasagne, Räksallad, Kycklingsa... &nbsp; <span style='color:#f29400;font-size:small;float:right;'>79 Kr<span></span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <img src='./images/siteimages/linje_430.jpg'/> </td> </tr> </table> 

Answer 2

Your string breaks due to "float: right"; The CSS attribute that you have on the span element. Perhaps adding style = "clear: both" to your TD flag will fix this
