messed up html issue

[Red Squirrel]

Ok this has been bugging me for a while.

If you go here:

Notice how the google ad randomly decides to display aligned to the left, other times it's centered (which it should be). Why is this?

I have another weird issue like this here:

Some of the text in top area randomly goes unbold.

This is also not a browser issue, as I've seen it happen on different machines.

The google ad is not centred, it's right aligned in a table cell to give it the appearance that it's centred and thus if the ad is too big it'll just end up going all the way to the left (shrink your browser window to see).

Can't comment on the second without actually being able to reproduce it. Could easily be something as simple as visited link styles etc.

Yeah well that's what I meant it's centered in the table cell. But at random it wont center in the cell but instead go to the left. If I hit refresh it fixes it. All the ads are same size.

I've just had a flick through and some of the ad's themselves come with styling code which is overriding the right align on the table. You should probably put your own wrapper around the ad script.

hmm never even thought of checking the ad code itself, as yeah maybe it's adding more. Wonder if I should maybe use an iframe so I force it the same size then center the iframe itself. Since whatever I do, the ad code will override as it comes after it.

Using an iframe will mess up adsense, as it generates adds in context to its surrounded content.
