CSS and javascript

Hello,

During the past 2 days in an effort to learn CSS I've read 2 books and
today I've started the process of redesigning our footer. I've run into
an issue whereas I can't figure out how to float text around an image
produced by javascript. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The footer in development is ...
http://www.4everhers.com/dev/footer.asp

The footer I want it to look like is on any other page.

Thanks,
Terry

I am not sure, but I do not think these are the results you expected. You may wish
to make your example just a little more flexible.

Why use Javascript for the image?

The javascript displays a COMODO SSL logo which displays our validation
information real-time. I have to use javascript --- so I believe.

I figured out the problem ... It was totally user error. I stopped
working on it for a couple of hours and when I came back I realized that
I had put the javascript and the span statement in the wrong location.
Should've been moved up "above" the text that I wanted to float around it.

I'm wondering if I can get help with something else. The footer
displays fine in IE and Opera but not Firefox. I've read that there are
various hacks that you have to do sometimes. Can anyone give me an idea
as how to make the right side line up?

Thanks!

So what happens for visitors with Javascript disabled/unavailable?

Sorry, but I know from previous posts that you've made that the content
of your site is not something I want to be looking at - especially at
work. No doubt someone else will be able to help though.

Yep, you're right Mark. And I do apologize! I generally include a
disclaimer stating that we sell lingerie and therefore display pictures
of women wearing such.

As for javascript, I'm really not sure what I can do. The method for
displaying the logo is set by Comodo. I will go to there site and look
to se if there's an alternative, but I don't think so.

That's OK - I recognised the domain name.

If you can create a page with your new footer without photos, I'm more
than happy to have a look.

Yeah, if it's a 3rd-party thing you don't have much choice. Can't hurt
to check with them though - they really *should* provide a better
alternative.

Nothing but a footer "here" ...
http://www.4everhers.com/dev/footer.asp

I just need to get the right side to line up. Well, that's not all. As
BootNic pointed out, I need to correct the problem of discombobulation
when the text size is increased. But I'm learning and I'll tackle that
issue "next" week.

Thanks

Well why didn't you say so?

Line up with what? The menu?

TBH, I think you're going to need to largely rewrite it to get it to
adjust nicely with larger font sizes, so you might as well do that
first.

It was in an earlier post. It appears to display fine in IE and Opera
but in Firefox the right side does not line up.

I will completely redo it this time focusing on text resizing. Anyway,
it's the best way to learn! Thanks for looking Mark.
