Default Really strange layout problem

Hi All,

I have encountered a very strange layout problem. If some of the words in the product title are all caps, then the layout breaks....only in IE.

Challenged breaks.
Freed does not.

If I make the word "CHALLENGED!" in the product title be mixed case, "Challenged", then all is well.

I banged my head against the wall for hours on this one...

Anyone know what is going on here?

did you hard code the table widths to a specific pixel width, or use percentages?

I left the cart code as it was, so the table width for the container of the prod name, image and descr is still in percents.

It's weird that although the prod name seems to be line wrapping okay, that all-caps word messes it up.

I experimented with putting the prod descr in a narrow table or div and it didn't help. If I edited the cart code, I could change the width of the product info container, and that would fix it, too.

this sounds like one of those odd problems you have to play with for three hours to finally realize what you were doing wrong. So unfortunately, i have no clue and dont mind telling you. lol
