Firefox <br> inside a script

I have a few popup menus that look fine in IE. In Firefox, one popup menu
doesn't look correct. I think it has to do with two <br> tags inside this
script.

Here is the tag:
<a href="rules.htm" id="MMMenu0012235615_0_Item_0"
class="MMMIFVStyleMMMenu0012235615_0"
onMouseOver="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0012235615_0');">By Laws & Recorded Restrictions<br>AND<br>Building Restrictions</a>

It is basically suppose to display: By Recorded Restrictions (next line)
AND (next line) Building Restrictions.

Any suggestions are much appreciated!!!
 
Hi Sandy,

I can't see anything wrong with that - do you have a url to the offending
page?
 
Change
By Laws & Recorded Restrictions<br>AND<br>Building Restrictions</a>
to
Bylaws &amp; Recorded Restrictions<br>AND<br>Building Restrictions</a>

In Code view, the & character is always the start of an HTML entity, the
ampersand being &amp;

I assume you mean Bylaw, rather than By Law
 
Thanks for the quick responses!!

Actually it does have &. I copied this tag into something else before
putting online the 1st time and it must have changed the coding. Here is the
coding I currently have:

<a href="rules.htm" id="MMMenu0012235615_0_Item_0"
class="MMMIFVStyleMMMenu0012235615_0"
onMouseOver="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0012235615_0');">
By Laws & Recorded Restrictions<br>AND<br>Building Restrictions</a>

It is on the sidemenu when you scroll over "Rules & Regulations"

It appears that your reader stripped out the change RONX proposed.

change the code to read exactly as follows:
<a href="rules.htm" id="MMMenu0012235615_0_Item_0"
class="MMMIFVStyleMMMenu0012235615_0"
onMouseOver="MM_menuOverMenuItem('MMMenu0012235615_0');">
By Laws &amp; Recorded Restrictions<br>AND<br>Building Restrictions</a>

Note the change, which may not be visible (in CODE VIEW) replace the
single ampersand symbol in the last line with "& a m p ;" (without the
quotation marks or spaces) shown with spaces between the characters,
which should be removed. I.e. add the characters amp; after the
ampersand. OR, change the ampersand to the word "and"

The popup menu displays the words as I want to see them but the rollover is
only going as far as the first line.
