Strange . . I tried the first of the Olds-based auctions this guy has when
I was at work. Nothing at all like that, and my reaction was much like
Milton's. That was with Opera 8.54
I come home, and try the first half-dozen or so Olds-based auctions under
that seller, and I get the same thing Chris does! This is with Firefox
1.5.0.2
A quick perusal of the HTML reveals that there's an improperly closed h3
tag. Also, it's hard to tell because the HTML is so tangled, but there
appear to be a lot of opened tags that aren't closed, then a line at the
end where they try to close a whole bunch of h1, h2, h3, h5, center, and
font tags all at once. This, I imagine, is confusing the heck out of the
Mozilla/Firefox page-rendering engine. If I were to hazard a guess, that is.
Opera, and I would assume, Internet Explorer, both are more forgiving of
such mistakes. Still, while the HTML is incorrect, I can't imagine why
Mozilla/Firefox would keep making things bigger.
Someone whose expertise is web-pages/web-development could probably spot
the problem more precisely.
