I am struggling with the 2 Google ads within the forum_posts.asp page;

This happens ONLY in IE8, IE7 and Firefox don't show this behavior;

No matter what I try, the 2 ads can't be placed on the same line, but are displayed on top of each other. First i thought it had something to do with the design of my page which gives the forum less width than standard, but i tried reducing the google ads to 200x200, and still no luck.

The problem would be to do with the reduced space that you are using for the forum.

You may find that you need to disable one of the ads.

Hmmm, no, don't think that's it.

Changed the google ads to smallest possible size (125 wide) and they still were not on the same line in IE8.

Strangely enough it works now, with the 250 wide ads in IE8... and I don't know why :-/
