I am taking my daily newspaper website kicking and screaming into the
wide world of web standards. I'm having to do it in a very transitional
way unfortunately, there are still some tables being used for layout,
but much less that there has been in the past.
I do have one problem though, and I'd like some collective help, if
possible... keeping in mind that this is a work in progress... (I've
been pulling my hair out trying to figure this out!)
You can view my new design here: (sorry about the pop-up, that's not my
idea...)

(for comparison, just look at http://www.dispatch.com )
The problem is in the "video" links... in IE on both pc and mac the
text doesn't wrap or break to a new line beside the "Sports poll". What
am I doing wrong?
The basic markup is:
<div class='videolink'><A href='xxx'>Link goes here</a></div>
The relevant css is:
div .videolink
{
font: bold 10px/10px "Verdana", "Arial", "Helvetica", sans-serif;
margin: 3px 0px;
padding: 3px 0px 3px 55px;
background: url(/images/2003/video.gif) no-repeat left top;
height: 18px;
}
What do I set to make the text wrap?
Thanks for your help.
