Images not displaying properly in Wordpress

When the markup is not compliant, it's almost impossible to get the browser output to be useful and consistent.  If you can get the markup right so that it passes validation, we can revisit this question from a position of advantage.

I know that this theme is screwed up, but is there a way to work around this?  I'm just looking for some simple touch-ups.

Hi Experts, thanks for the feedback, and here's where I was able to get.  I changed the page's URL to this site, please look here:

http://www.redalertconsulting.com/options-and-programs-test-page/

Omni:
I tried what you said and it didn't change it.  Please see the code below if that helps.

Julian:
There are no <br/> elements in my code (see below).
I added the following at the top of the page and the buttons appear to have been centered, which is a good thing.
I added the margin-bottom property and set it to 0, yet it only moved the buttons slightly higher.

<style>
  form {
  text-align: center;
}

Upon inspecting the code that is on your test page, the <br />' s are still there.  If you are telling me you removed them, then this indicates to me that the code editor is inserting them into your HTML.

You may need to refer to the manual on your code editor, or try using a text editor like notepad to edit the file then FTP it up to your site.

... the <br />' s are still there.

This sort of thing is a common symptom of testing the wrong script.  Changes are made to a script, it's saved (but in the wrong directory), and when the test is run, a different copy of the script gets executed.  Poof, the changes disappeared for "no reason."  

Add a signal string to the data, perhaps an HTML comment.  Look at the before and after "view source" to verify that your tests are what you expect.

Also, if you are using WordPress' HTML editor (which I strongly suspect is the case), you should know that it will automatically insert <p> and <br /> tags into your HTML.

You can stop this behaviour by adding the following code to your functions.php file in your theme directory:

<?php remove_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' ); ?>

Um yes there are <br>'s in your script.

Here is the ACTUAL code that is on the page you gave us a link to

<form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" form="" target="Paypal"><input type="hidden" value="_s-xclick" name="cmd"><br>
<input type="hidden" value="VL89HCWFFW8SN" name="hosted_button_id"><br>
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_subscribeCC_LG.gif" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"><br>
<img width="1" height="1" border="0" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" alt=""></form>

Select allOpen in new window

After making the changes I suggested in my previous post using Firebug the problem does resolve.

Did you update your css file with the text-align: center for the form? Doesn't seem to be updated on the link you gave.

Hi Experts, sorry for the delay, but I was hit with work...give me a little bit of time and I'll continue with this shortly.

OK, thanks for letting us know.

You're welcome.
