Does Internet Explorer understands <span style="margin: 5px;"> ?

Hi, I'm wondering if IE does not understand <span style="margin: 5px;">
I've this website in WP that it has adverts and I'm using adrotate plugin to manage, and the only css rule for the ad block is <span style="margin: 5px;">(before) and </span>(after)

Please look at the screnshots



any idea why this happens?

Add an extra definition to the span style: display: inline-block; and see how IE reads that.

 

seconding clive, span is an inline element, if you want to add margin you need to define it as block element. either display:blcok, or display:inline-block would do.

 

Adding display: block; pushes the element to a new line so you may wish to check out what's best in your case.

 

yes; working with inline-block
