Display Issue in Win IE5

I am having difficulty getting my code to display properly in Win IE5 (a major issue!). It seems to ignore my "mainImages" class with padding-left: 170px. This works fine in IE6 and Mozilla/Netscape. Below are sections of the style and html that the issue appears to apply to (full version is <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.populus.com/v5/">www.populus.com/v5/</a><!-- w -->). Any thoughts?<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

#mainWrapper {position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; z-index: 20; width: 100%; height: 550px;}<br />
#populus {position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 70px; background-color: #4b6670;}<br />
.mainImages {padding-left: 170px;}<br />
<br />
<div id="mainWrapper"><br />
<br />
<div id="populus"><br />
<br />
<a href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"/"><img class="mainImages" src="img/home/populus.jpg" width="207" height="40" alt="POPULUS" /></a><br />
<br />
</div><br />
</div><!--content-->hunmm..I tested your page,and when I change the 170px value to 270px; it does seem to effect the location of the image,what exactly do you expect it to do which you think is not happening?<!--content-->The issue is that Win IE5 seems to ignore the <br />
<br />
.mainImages {padding-left: 170px;}<br />
<br />
When I view <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.populus.com/v5/">www.populus.com/v5/</a><!-- w --> in this browser the logo is hidden behind the first column (ignoring the padding). Have you tried viewing in Win IE5?<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

Zach<!--content-->After doing further research, IE5 doesn't support padding on image elements. And perhaps not on any inline elements?<br />
