Odd text display

[ssprouse]

I have a div that is repeating the last two letters at the end of the div only in IE6. I honestly have no clue what could be causing this! I've racked and racked my brain. Any help?

The link is http://www2.ccboe.com/westlake and it's under the Academics section in the middle of the page (again, only in IE6.)

Thanks for any light you can shed on this.

Can you show us some of the underlying code? And what 'two letters' are you referring to for those of use without IE6 installed.

The two letters are the "ts" in Departments. Attached are the main template file and the CSS document for the template. I'm running this off of a CMS.

-Also, I wanted to point out that the 'ts' isn't just being cut off or wrapping to below the div. It is repeating. If I edit 'Departments' to say "Depar" it repeats the "ar".

Wow, truly amazing. I think it would have taken me a long time to figure that out. I really appreciate your fast response.

For one more nagging issue - On IE (6 and 7 that I've tested) there seems to be a 1px gap between my background and my content. My body has a margin of -1px, but changing that messes up the positioning of the whole site on all browsers for me. I've tried adding a pixel onto the wrapper width, but that causes some issues as well. Any fix for this?

there seems to be a 1px gap between my background and my contentWhere you get a dark line on the top left of the content?

[ssprouse]

Yes, that 1px gap where it is a dark line is what I am referring to.

As for the errors, unfortunately a lot of those stem from the company who wrote the CMS code I think. I can go in and try to fix some of what I know about though. Do you think that will solve my issue?

FYI - I was able to resolve this issue with a little margin and width tweaking.
