Netscape/Firefox image display issue

This works fine in IE, but is breaking in Firefox, and reported in
Netscape as well. I can't determine why.

http://www.chartermainstreetgld.com
click on the real estate section on the left nav area.
You can see where the green real estate image is being moved down a
line in firefox, where IE displays it correctly.
<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="800"><tr
class="header"><td><a href="defaultXSL.asp"><img
src="XSl/CharterMI/images/headers/Sub Page Headers/Header Top Half.jpg"

alt="Charter Main Street" border="0"><br><img
src="XSl/CharterMI/images/headers/Sub Page Headers/Header Left
Corner.jpg" alt="Charter Main Street" border="0"><img
src="XSl/CharterMI/images/headers/Sub Page Headers/Header Bottom Real
Estate.jpg" alt="Charter Main Street" border="0"></a></td><td
align="center"></td></tr></table>
Any help would be appreciated.

Why not just give the actual URL?

<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="800"><tr

The two images on the second row are 94 and 911 pixels wide. Now first
of all, how is a 911px image supposed to fit in a 800px table? And
secondly, for many browsers 94+911 = 1005 pixels which when browser
chrome and scrollbars are taken into account is too wide for many
users' browser windows. So FireFox wraps the second image onto a
second line in order to try and prevent any horizontal scrolling (a
forlorn hope as something else on the page pushes the width out
anyway).

And have a look at the form in Opera...

Thanks, Steve.

For some reason, an _awful_ lot of people (mostly outside this
newsgroup), seem to think it's the done thing to post a home-page URL
with navigation instructions, instead of the actual URL. It drives me
up the wall.

Another code error is the use of invalid image URLs; spaces are not a
legal character. You should encode spaces in filenames as %20 when
used in a URL, or, better, give your files names without spaces or
punctuation in the first place so their names can be used directly in
URLs.
