As this is not an OS that has been supported by MS for a long time, and an uncommon browser, I can not even setup a test platform to test this on.
I think it best to ask this user to upgrade their browser to the latest version of IE or Firefox.

I've got to think that that's an ie v4 browser. No support for css height or width. The forum won't be the only site the user is having trouble with. Most designers are dropping ie 4 and netscape 4 compatibility as so few people are still using them.

Legacy support for IE 4 and Netscape 4 support was finally dropped from version 8 of web wiz forums as the number of people still using these browsers are like 0.01%
This allowed improved page rendering speeds, smaller pages files, less bandwidth, easier to implement skins, and better support for CSS and XHTML.
As browsers are generally free, it seems silly not to upgrade to a newer version.

The user was running win 95 though. MS dropped support for that some time ago. I doubt that there's a browser upgrade available. I don't even know if firefox will run on it.

For what it's worth, "height" isn't valid HTML for a table, row or cell tag. A couple of ways around it would be to add the value as a style, or use a 1×1 pixel transparent image set to 125 height and put that in the cell.

im having same problem
exact same place, and here its just text, links and some smilys.
the post can bee seen okay in Firefox newest
The post one can only see 10% of it in IE winxp total updated my own system
the code line problem is here.
<td valign="top" height="150"
class="msgLineDevider">
<!-- Start Member Post -->
The exact code problem is the height="150"
Now there must be a
way for us to make it work, whit Firefox and IE.
if not, then wwf is now just a forum for one browser :(
my site has i think 75% IE users and 20% Firefox. the last 5% are what ever.
WWF must work with IE and Firefox..
Any one got any ideas
on how to solve this issue.

You will only get this issue in IE if you have removed the XHTML document definition tag from the includes/browser_page_encoding.asp file:-
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr" lang="en">
If you remove this you will get the problem mentioned here.
