CSS - Problems Rendering In Ie...but Not Firefox Or Safari
hello. i'm using a CSS tutorial and DREAMWEAVER to build a website. i find that the site is interpreted the way i would like it in either Firefox or Safari...but not in IE. When links are hovered over while using IE, the page distorts. has anyone experienced this type of problem before? thank you in advance for your time and assistance!
i did post several explanatory screenshots to illustrate the problem. replace each "@" with a period. mea culpa. www@wwpea@net/screenshots@htm Similar TutorialsHey guys, I'm in need of some help here. Okay, so. My site looks the way I want so far on google chrome and safari (mac). And right now I'm at the stage of getting it to display like the two. If anyone who decides to help doesn't have access to certain browsers, I'll further explain, but I think it's easiest said to see for yourself. Right now I'm focusing on ie6, ie7, ff3. The markup in some areas is whacky, I know, but I decided to pick up where I left off on this project (which I first began building awhile ago) instead of starting completely over with a good template. http://thecheckoutplace.com/compute...eOneNetbook.php If anyone can offer a hand, it means a lot. Cheers guys. Hello. I just created my first web layout using DWCS4 with CSS. On desktop browsers, it view great. However, when I view it on my iphone, the divs are not connected and a line is shown. The line goes away when I pinch in to view but reappears when I zoom back out. How can I fix this? My header div and content div contains an image and are set to no borders. hi all, having a problem with browser compatibility here... 3 lousy pixels makes the difference between one of my divs being knocked to another row in safari, vs. a perfect lineup in IE. have a look: http://www.offsitedbs.com the column at the bottom entitled "security" is a big div that gets knocked to another row in safari if i try to have it line up perfectly in IE (pc)... BUT, if i knock the width back a few pixels to line it up in safari, it's not flush in IE. code for the divs: <div class='bottomDiv'> <div class='bottomTitle'><img src="IMAGES/arrow.gif">Remote Services</div> <p class='bottomDesc'>Offsite Database Administration and Offsite Server Management.</p> <p class='bottomText'>At Offsite DBA Services we focus ... any potential problem.</p> </div> <div class="bottomDiv"> <div class='bottomTitle'><img src="IMAGES/arrow.gif">Onsite Services</div> <p class='bottomDesc'>OffSite offers a free comprehensive report on the state of your database at no extra cost to your company.</p> <p class='bottomText'>We take ... its optimal level.<br></p> </div> <div class="bottomDiv"> <div class='bottomTitle'><img src="IMAGES/arrow.gif">Security</div> <p class='bottomDesc'>Offsite DBA Services uses the latest SSL technologies to manage your database through secure connections and proven technologies.</p> <p class='bottomText'>Network technologies ... from snoops.<br></p> </div> and the css for the 'bottomdiv's: .bottomDiv { background-color: #F0F0F0; height: 262px; width: 193px; float: left; border-left: solid 1px #FFF; border-bottom: solid 1px #FFF; background-image:url(../IMAGES/bottomBG.gif); background-repeat:repeat-x; background-position:bottom; border-top: solid 1px #FFF; padding: 0px; vertical-align: top; } any & all help is very appreciated! thanks, nunzio If you go to the example site: devbum.com/coded/audven/ The top navigation seems to be pushed upwards in Windows Safari and Google Chrome and not centered like in FF, IE6, IE7, and Opera. I'm not sure why it's doing this though... does it also render differently on Mac Safari? Hi, Trying to get my website to work in IE7. Got to collumns. Side bar and main content. It works fine in firefox, opera and chrome but not in IE7. In IE7 the main content doesn't appear next to the side bar, instead its at the bottom the pade. The site is at accentibrass dot com If anyone has any ideas they'd be much appreciated! thanks Hi I am completely stumped by this. My CSS is not rendering in FF, I am running FF on a mac. Two pages, they are nearly the same, but show one display Css and the other does not - No CSS and With CSS I have been going crazy trying to find out what is wrong. The CSS link is here Thanks Jake one of my client's pages is not rendering my external css in mozilla firefox. the page's index is: (URL address blocked: See forum rules) It is in a frameset... the simplest page on my site is (URL address blocked: See forum rules)/leftspacer.html. I cannot get the stylesheet to put the background image in proper alignment. PLEASE HELP! All I am trying to do is pad some text so that it is aligned vertically, but whenever I pad the text, in Firefox, it forces the parent div up, instead of the text down, which makes no sense Code:
body { margin: 0px;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif }
#logoimage { margin: 5px 0px 2px 5px }
#version { font-size: 10px;
font-weight: bold;
margin: 4px 5px;
text-align: center;
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
right: 15px }
#header { background-color: #D2E1FA;
height: 20px;
position: relative }
#navigation { font-size: 11px;
position: absolute;
top: 2px;
left: 20px }
#userinfo { background-color: #FFFFFF;
height: 13px;
width: 150px;
color: #000000;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 4px 5px;
text-align: center;
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
right: 150px }
Actual html is here... Code: <img id="logoimage" src="/images/logosmall.gif"> <div id="version"> Beta Build 1000 </div> <div id="header"> <div id="navigation"> Test My Account </div> <div id="userinfo"> <b>Guest User</b> > Log In </div> </div> It actually pushes the div almost until it overlaps the image above, which makes no sense... How should I be applying the padding instead? thanks in advance! here is a html page with iframe (index.html): Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>iframe</title>
<style type="text/css">
#framebox{
width:200px;height:150px;
border-style:solid;border-color:#000;border-width:1px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<iframe id="framebox" name="framebox" src="iframe.html" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe>
</div>
</body>
</html>
and this is a iframe page(iframe.html): Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
#text{
background-color:#00f;
border-style:dotted;border-color:#f00;border-width:1px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="text">sample text sample text sample text sample text</div>
</body>
</html>
run this example. the text inside #text(the div inside iframe page) is intentionally written with and iframe is given specific width and height to make iframe scroll. What happens in firefox(in opera too) is that #text div does not strech to fill entire text string but instead has width equal to width of iframe and the text kind of overflowing the div. But in ie #text div is expanding to include entire text string. IMHO is that in this specific case ie seems to be right... well, i know that ie wrongly expands containers dimentions if content is too big BUT not in this case... #text div DOES NOT have any stated dimentions so that means that i want it to adopt for whatever dimensions the content has... What do you think? Hey folks, here's an odd problem that's got me totally stumped. I've got a nine item unordered list, each of which is a link that contains both text and a background image. The background image is a large spritebox. I'm using background-position to shift the spritebox to display the sprite specific to the a:link and also to display a separate a:hover version. Looks great in Safari and CSSEdit, but in Firefox four of the links are misplaced and the sprite is incorrect. The hover state is correct, however. This is hard to explain, but the example should help illustrate the problem. My thought was that it was related the psuedo class of a:link, but nothing I've tried seems to help. Any thoughts? The example file contains both the HTML and the CSS (just to simplify this problem for this forum). The full background image and the file containing the sprites is at my website, artmeetsearth dot org slash 2011 slash codetest dot html. To get the image type socialmediaicons.jpg instead of codetest. Thanks for any help you can offer! 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. Hi there, currently, my site uses CSS and it works perfectly in FF and IE. But when it comes to Safari, it doesnt seem to pull the CSS up properly, if at all. (www.nsma.com/store) Just wondering if anyone can help/shed light on this. the css file is at store/stylesheet.css. Im offerin payment if u can help. paypal is best for me, let me know Many thanks in advance I was told earlier that absolute positioning was a bad practice, at least to do it excessively in code, so I learned about margins and floats and fixed my page to where I want it. I test my page in Firefox 3 and Safari 4 (beta) and they both look exactly how I want the page to look. However, IE doesn't like a few things: 1. The top header positioning doesn't match up where it should (leaving yellow showing, which I placed behind the images to make sure I was aligning the images correctly rather than using the same background color). 2. The navigation by letter (A-Z and View All) is positioned right under the light blue bar when it should be in the middle of the light blue bar. Safari 3 has the same problem mentioned in #2 but is positioned level with the bottom of the light blue bar. Any suggestions and solutions would be most appreciated as I have tried looking for some explanation/solution to this problem for a few days now. Thanks ahead of time. P.S. the link is advance.byu.edu/sgtest I am making a Mac help site for a friend, and want the site to be compatible with as many browsers as possible. I am aware that IE doesn't follow the rules with css, which is why I have made a plain version of the site as well. Basically, the site is composed of two tables, the top one is the banner with buttons, and the bottom one has text. The background is fixed, as is the top table (so the only thing that moves when you scroll is the table with the text). My problem is that the top table can be centered either for Safari, or Firefox, but I have not found a way to center both of them. EDIT: The site is at www.ihelpnyc.com/dave/index1.html . It will probably change, but it's a good reference to see what I'm doing When I do this, it is centered on Firefox: Code:
<style type="text/css">

Any help is appreciated, as I am totally stuck. I have been using http://theodorakis.net/tablecentertest.html to see which works on both Firefox and Safari, but none of them work for both. Thanks! EDIT: The site is at www.ihelpnyc.com/dave/index1.html . It will probably change, but it's a good reference to see what I'm doing Hi all, After the latest update of Safari, my Web site has gone all Wonky in the layout. The problem occurs in table cells where there is both a field and some text. If I put a <b> bold tag on some text in the row or even a <span> with special style attributes like plain text, the text jumps up and becomes almost a superscript and the rest of the text remains at the baseline of the text input fields in the row. I uploaded a picture, not sure how to link it into the posting though. The forms on our site are old, 7+ years, so have been beautifully laid out until this latest Safari release. It used to only be IE that messed up formatting with each release. This is the first Safari release I have seen do this. Can anyone else confirm similar issues? Can anyone give me a hint on why the css/javascript controlled dropdowns don't appear right on this page in Safari: http://spa.american.edu As you can see in the view source the script is very basic and not embedded in an external file. Safari cuts off a portion of the final link. Thanks, Jeremy Hi all, I was wondering if someone could help me out. I have two divs on top of each other: 1 is a menu, 1 is a grid. In IE, the grid is displayed directly below the menu. However, when I view the page in Safari or Firefox, the grid is displayed below and to the right of the menu. See screenshots I have also included my HTML and CSS below. Thanks for your help! Code: /* Submenu */

Still learning CSS and trying to position simple text inside a layer on my clients site: The CSS positioning and font size are all appearing different in Safari (MAC), IE and Firefox. What am I doing wrong here? Go to : http://www.fractiousmusic.com At the bottom left corner I am trying to position the Steady Systems text. IE - looks fine Firefox - slightly positioned to the right Safari - completely out of wack. Covering one of the band member silohouettes and the font size is all wrong. Please view source and let me know if its a code error. Thanks! Daniel Greetings Well, what can I say. I'm a PC. I've been building these websites and have been validating them and all, and look great in IE 6 & 7. But when I finally get around to downloading the latest version (3.2) of Safari and Firefox, for some reason my background-color doesn't work right. Here's the site: http://www.freshrod.com/maryville/maryvillemo.html Have tried googling it, but no real answers yet. Anyone experience this before? |
