nsrunalertpanel

I'm currently using NSRunAlertPanel to display a dialog.

It works perfectly in Leopard and Snow Leopard. In Tiger, it also works except for the icon.

In Leopard and Snow Leopard, the icon I used for the App is displayed on the left side of the strings. This is the expected behavior.

However, in Tiger, there is a big margin on the left side of the strings, the icon is missing but the gap for the icon is there.

Here's how i used the code:

NSRunAlertPanel(@"My Application", @"My Application's string contents", @"OK", nil, nil);

I really need to know why this happens. I did not add any code for the icon to appear in leopard and snow, but it's there.

Thanks.
