HTML Nugget and PayPal

[michu@abcsystems.ch]

hey all.. well this bug sounds strange i know..

i want to add a paypal donate image on my sidebar, as a html nugget plugin. so far so good, i add the paypal html block to my html nugget (i dont use a wysiwyg editor) and save it.. unfortunally the image is zoomed! when i create a empty hrtml document and place it on the web server, it works as i should. "Perform Markup Transformations" is not enabled.. you can see this "bug" on www.neophob.com, on the left sidebar. any hints?

cheers

Weird one. It's got an inline width and height applied, but they're each 1. I'd remove those and try again. I can't get it to change via the EditCSS plugin. Every other image changes, but not that one.

Sorry.

well i contaced paypal again.. i also used the unencrypted version of the paypal button with the same result. the image with w=1 and h=1 seems to be a transparent pixel.. so solution here as well..

thanks anyway!

regards

The problem is this; the paypal image is not a <img> HTML code, but an "<input type='image'>". In the CSS of your template, all "input" fields have a width of 100% or so; this is usually done so that all input buttons are made the same width like your sidebar; but it also applies toy our paypal butotn.

Solution: Try to use a HTML code for the paypal button that uses an <img> image with a <a href> instead of a <form> element.

hey garvin.. thanks! i actually used a cheap solution:

<br />
<div align="center">
<table width="99" rules=all>
<tr>
<td>
....

works like a charm! thanks
