Problem with a button of Deepblue theme

Hi all,

I have used a slightly modified Deepblue theme with different logo.gif and logo-graphic.gifs compared with original. I also have changed the buttons a little. It have worked very well for many newsletters that I have sent, but yesterday the Top10 button was placed under the Home button and not to the right as usual. I have not made any changes to template.php at all during this period. Earlier the Top10 button was not clickable and did not lead to Top10 of the site, but now it does.

Here you can see a picture of the buttons positions

Well, something has changed somewhere. I believe everything is self-contained within that templates directory for DeepBlue, so check the dates on the files there.

Any other server changes that you are aware of? Did you move servers? Anything?

No nothing have been changed at all on the server and I have checked file dates in the templates folder too.

I have, however, to get it to work by using this code for the Top10 button:
<img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"{SITEURL}/modules/HTML_Newsletter/templates/{TEMPLATENAME}/top10.gif\" width=\"140\" height=\"18\"></td>

It looks to me that something has caused that last image to wrap to a new line but the original template code seems to indicate they should all be inline.
It might be worth adding up the image widths, plus any border widths to see if the total is the same as the table width. As this theme has a fixed width, if the total image (plus borders) width is greater than the fixed table width, it would cause that sort of wrapping.

The reason why I made the change was that originally when the Top10 button was in correct position it was not clickable and not working as a link. My thought was if I change the code so Top10 is not clickable and remove the link, it should work again and it did.

I have looked in WinMerge in the source code for a identical newsletter that is working and not working and here is the difference in the source:

Looks like the first closing /a tag has wrapped onto a new line which wouls break the link (your second example).

I know this issue very well its like a dejavu because I had the same problem with my multilingual site. I had my own buttons there and size but somehow this issue didn´t go away whenever I switched over to the english part of my German website.
This is a known issue in theme Deepblue.

Good luck !
