We are using a background image on links to signify they are external. The image sits on the right side of the link using background: url() 100% 0;
All is fine in firefox, but in IE the icon overlaps or sits at the top when the text wraps to a second line. Is there a way to make the background image follow the text inside a link rather than looking at the link as a block? I've tried display: inline-block and that made the spacing better, but didn't fix the issue. Here's an example Good link: | Google Virtual | | World (icon) | Bad link: | Google Virtua(icon) | The icon sits at the top and doesn't | World | flow with the text Has anyone found a way to fix this? I don't want to go back to inline images and our standard is to have the icon on the right and not the left. Otherwise, I would have placed it on the left and it would have been a cake-walk. P.S. sorry about an earlier html formatted email, I try to send them in plain text.
