    Adverts in reviews

    Just noticed that in opera (7.21 is the ver im using) the big annoying ad is sitting right infront of text, which some people might want to read.

    In firefox its not in the way of text, anyway heres a screeeny so you can see what I mean..
    I expect its one of those things where to make it work in IE you have to break standards causing it not to work in opera...




    Please note Im not complaining about the ads - I know they have to be there, but whats the point in having the same ad twice on the SAME page? (the banner ones) not that its something for you to be bothered about, as you still get money for it, but doesnt the company paying for them relise its pointless?

    Erm.. how did you fix it so fast? ..? hmmm...


    edit: for some reson, refreshing the page after its loaded fixes it, but in a new tab, it will still do it.. strange...

    It's because Opera doesn't resize the div to match the content I guess. When you refresh the page the image has been cached so the div resizes automatically. On a new page the image is downloaded so it doesn't size immediately. That's just a guess, I'll look at it later

    Yeah, I used to get this problem in FF (sometimes still do)

    For some reason, just a quick refresh and it's gone.

    7.54 doesn't seem to do that (just had a gander through the Akasa case review) - perhaps time to upgrade?
