Hello ranchers,

I am facing a strange issue in IE6,7 browsers.

I have a TestLink text and a image test-icon.gif inside a anchor HTML element.

Below is the code to open a child window when user clicks on the TestLink link or test-icon.gif image. when user clicks on the TestLink everything is fine as expected but when user clicks on the test-icon.gif the child window opens but the parent window gets redirected to undefined url.

As i said above it is observed only in IE6,7 browsers.

FYI: In the above code, i have used a span element inside a anchor element as i want only the TestLink text underlined inside the anchor element not the image test-icon.gif inside the anchor element.

Any help is really appreciated, thanks in advance for your time and attention.

Well it would help to show us your code, but I am guessing it uses an object reference, but the reference is the image and not the link when clicked.

Personally I would not use an image tag. I would use a background image with no repeat, positioned left center, with padding to give space for it.
