CSS - Not Sure Why This Happens On Safari For Ipad

I am using the <pre> tag in my application and it works for IE, Firefox, etc... except for Safari. This is what I am using in my css

Code:

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
      #Pre tags with word wrapping for Mozilla, etc...
      pre {
      white-space: pre-wrap; 
      white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; 
      white-space: -pre-wrap; 
      white-space: -o-pre-wrap; 
      _white-space: pre;
      font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; color:#000000;
      }
      </style>
      <!--[if gte IE 5]>
        <style type="text/css">
            pre {
             word-wrap: break-word; /* IE 5.5+ */
             white-space: normal;             font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; color:#000000;
            }
            </style>
           <![endif]-->

This is how I am using the pre tag in my perl cgi application
Code:

  my $id = $FORM{'id'}; 
  my $query = "Select title, news_story, begin_date, author from su_archives where news_id = '$id'"; 
  $sth = $dbh->prepare($query); 
  $sth->execute(); 
  my ($title, $news_story, $begin_date, $author) =  $sth->fetchrow_array;
  @begin = split(' ',$begin_date); 
  @date = split('-',$begin[0]); 
  $startDate = $date[1].'/'.$date[2].'/'.$date[0]; 
  print "<br><b>$title</b><br><br>"; 
  print "<p><i>$startDate</i><br></p>";
  print "<PRE WIDTH=55px style=\"font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, geneva, swiss, sans-serif;\">$news_story</pre>";

Any Suggestions on how this should be revised for Safari?

Thanks in Advance

Hi, so far I have my website look the same on IE7, (maybe IE6), FireFox, and Opera. Now there is another browser called Safari for Mac! How can I test my website on Safari if I only have a PC? also should I worry on this!? or if my website works on FireFox then it means it will work on Safari as well?

regards,

Hi there,

I used to use tables to format my websites. I want to use css now for formatting my site but I have a small problem...

When I am on my Windows XP computer with IE6 My Site looks just fine.

But when I turn on my Mac and I open the page in Safari it ****s up a little bit. And of course I want my site viewable to al users with al browsers on any platform.

This is some of the code I used:

Code:

body {
	background-color: #fff;
	margin: 100px 0px 0px 0px;
}

.leftside {
	width: 500px;
	float: left;
	border-right: 1px dashed #999;
	padding: 0px 0px 0px 100px;
}


.rightside {
	width: 150;
	padding: 10px
}

this is the url of my testpage:
www.headradio.net/template/index.php
Just take a look how it looks in safari (or firefox) and how it looks in IE6

Thanks
Daan

I have my webpage coded in HTML 4 and CSS, and everything is valid. It displays perfectly in all browsers, with one exception. In Safari 1.2, the menu background positioning is screwed up. It is supposed to display the b&w image first, then rollover to the color image. Instead, it is displaying the color image, and not repositioning the image so it displays correctly. It works fine in other browsers. any suggestions??

(PS) i'm judging the Safari support by BrowserCam.com, I don't actually have a Mac to test with. And yes, I do need it to work in Safari since this is a class website and we are provided with apple laptops to use.

Hello,

Is there a hack for Safari 3.
I found this hack :
@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0)
{
#safari { display: block; }
}
The problem with this hack is that he is valid for all verison of Safari.
My need is a hack only for Safari 3.

Thank you in advance for your help.

My site displays correctly in Firefox and IE (which was hassle enough) but when I view it in Safari on my Macbook, the last nav menu item is pushed down below the rest of the menu instead of in line with the rest of the menu. I just got my macbook, and I'm not very in touch with al of Safari's quirks yet, but I was under the impression that it was more reliable than FF or IE. Does anyone have any idea what's causing this, and how I can fix it?

I have a new site at www.sdgolflessons.com. Looks fine in all browsers, including Safari, until I changed the doc type to strict (from the default loose in my Dreamweaver), and now Safari has odd gaps. I don't have much CSS for formatting, so I can't figure out what's going on. I've tried to force heights, make sure paddings are 0, etc., to no avail. I'd appreciate someone checking it out. I have Safari on a PC, though I'm not sure if that matters.

I'm using the "first-letter" feature with CSS which shows up fine in IE, but is totally off in Mac's Safari. Any suggestions on a workaround? The following is what I have currently:

In main.css file:
p.initial:first-letter { font-size: 300%; float: left}

In actual page:
<p class="initial">Welcome!

I have some hidden divs that on click they slide down under the link that was clicked. It works fine in firefox and ie, but in safari if you click it the first time it looks good, but when you click and close it and open it again the hidden div is off to the right i cant figure out why this is happening only in safari.

this is the good one

this is the bad one
http://brendanperkins.DOT/pic3.jpg

this is the css im using
Code:

/* Individual page divs (also in left column) */
.hidden-divs {
	position: relative;
	display: none;
	width: 387px;
	height: auto;
	border-top: 1px solid #dddddd;
	border-bottom: 1px solid #dddddd;
	font-size: 11px;
	line-height: 1.5em;
	padding-top: 10px;
	padding-bottom: 10px;
}

.hidden-divs a:link, .hidden-divs a:visited {
	color: #4d4d4d;
	font-size: 14px;
}

and this is my html for the nav and hidden divs
Code:

<div id="main-nav">

I'm a developer of a PHP forum software, and I've made a CSS emoticons system which has been working fine for several months now. But only recently I've found out that the emoticons don't display at all in Safari. Here's an example of the code I use:

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/andy_black/andy/forum/emoticon.htm

In Safari only the bottom 3 display, and the images don't animate. The only difference between them all is that the top one has a space on both sides of the emoticon's HTML, while the lower 3 either have only one or no spaces.

I've made a fix for the forum which uses this workaround (by replacing one of the surrounding spaces with an &nbsp; character), but this has been met with mixed success (works sometimes, but still doesn't display at all other times), and I'd like a more "elegant" solution if possible. I don't have Safari myself so it's difficult for me to bug test. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Hey--

Working on a new site, I've got 99.9% of it finished and working, but a menu is displaying one pixel higher in Safari (Mac and PC) than any other browser.

www.inkyfever.com/customer/animotion/

The menu is in the orange bar at the top. It's created with an unordered list. You can view source to check the code.

HELP!

EDIT: Okay, I've got it to mostly work by changing some padding, but hovering over any other orange links, the hover color doesn't quite fill the space vertially. ONE pixel short at the bottom. Ideas?

I am having trouble trying to work out why on an iphone my css file never gets used.

when a user arrives at my site with a screen size <= 1024 i apply a different style sheet using this function - http://www.kelvinluck.com/2006/05/s...ts-with-jquery/. i know this isnt a way of doing it for an iphone as you use user.agent but i am doing it for smaller screens at the same time.

Code:

<link href="index.css" rel="stylesheet" title="screen" type="text/css" media="screen" />
        <link href="css/mobile.css" title="mobile" rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" />

that is how i order my stylesheets in my html. on opera on the iphone the css works fine but its just safari. on android the site works fine.

any help would be really grateful

thanks in advance

Hi.

I just discovered that my site has issues in Safari. Everything is fine in FF. Take a look in safari: bestplaceon.net.
1. Gallery thumbnails are all over the layout.
2.Right upper corner Google Plus is gone.
3.Text size is to big for Safari

I have tried different ways to fix this problem but without success.
Every help would be nice. Thank you!

I cannot see a margin when I test this page in safari from dreamweaver. Basically I am trying for a centered container which will hold all the content and have some space from the top margin and be centered. With the CSS I have the container shows up with a margin when I test it in the firefox browser and even when using live view, but not in Safari. The latest version of Safari.

What do I need to change to get the top margin to show correctly in Safari? Is something overriding something else?

Code
