displaying error messages

When I have errors on a form, and they show at the top in the red box, In IE, I am getting an empty red box above where the errors actually displayed. Firefox shows fine. Google Chrome shows the red box, and the error message below the red box. How can I fix this?

Thanks

Hi jrthor2,

It will be something to do with the CSS but I can't visualise exactly what you are describing.

if you go to http://www.vickiesangelwalk.org/joomla15/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&catid=31&id=49&Itemid=16 and just scroll to the bottom and submit the form, you can see what I mean.

Thanks.

Hi jrthor2,

Interesting, I've never seen that before. It's some kind of interaction between the css and the HTML but I have no idea what :-(

Try changing the <p> wrapping the message to a <div> ??

Could you tell me where the <p> tag is that surrounds the <span class="cf_alert"> tag? I found where the <span> tag is coming from, in chronocontact.html.php, but can't seem to find the surrounding <p> tag.

Thanks

Nevermind, I think i got it. I have the form inside an article, using php in my article, and it was putting the <p> around the form. I changed the code to a <div> and it workded fine
