The Hotmail / Firefox Line Break Issue Is Resolved
Have you ever come across the consistent issue of line breaks in your email design in Hotmail using Firefox?
One consistent annoyance I’ve always encountered has been testing an email in Hotmail with Firefox. For some reason, this combination of client and browser generates horizontal line breaks in emails. I never knew why… until now.
After some digging, Smith-Harmon has discovered that a simple bit of code is the purest remedy for this issue. At the top of the email (before the opening TABLE tag), make sure you include this:
<style>img {display: block;}</style>
It’s that simple. You can also accomplish the same effect if you code each image individually with the “display: block” property / value. For example:
<img src="images/header.jpg" style="display: block;" />
Kudos to Smith-Harmon for this useful shred of knowledge!
