CSS - Divs And Internet Explorer [help Needed]

My website, currently http://12.214.26.185 does not render correctly in IE. It renders in Mozilla and Konqueror. I am posting my css file. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am having problems getting my menu to align, I found the menu system at.

http://www.gazingus.org/html/Using_...HTML_Menus.html

However when you try and center it using tables or divs you get the result you can see in the attached image.

Strange thing it works fine in firefox, and sort of okay in opera, though its not centered and the menu is a little bugged.

I just can't think what causing the problem and its annoying me.

I've attached all the files in zip file for people to explore and see were i am going wrong.

thanks

Hi, for reasons unknown my template is being displayed towards the far right of the browser in Internet Explorer...It works fine in Firefox (page is centered) but I am rather confused as to why it is being displayed so strangely in IE? Help would be appreciated.

So I seem to have a problem with IE5.x and IE 7. The white bar in #top-bar that is supposed to run along the bottom of my blue banner on my page, works fine in IE6. But it either of the other two browsers it just hugs the top of the page.

It doesn't seem to want to obey the padding-top css directive. I'm not really sure why though.

Can someone have a look at it for me ?

Thanks in advance ... :-)

Are there any good links that might show what type of styles IE will render on a list element? I'm having some trouble getting a navigation bar working properly. I'm only doing hovers on links, so the hover problem should not affect me, but I can't get any styles to apply other than "list-style." Even font size or color styles will not show up.

Any idea why in IE the images and form elements in the middle row of this table are 50% opacity, but none of the text is?
The IE CSS: http://ezdispatch.org/css/ezd_ie.css
The other CSS: http://ezdispatch.org/css/ezd.css

As a note, The IE version of this page (see a larger version he http://ezdispatch.org/view_orders.php ) is already hacked beyond belief (ok, it's not THAT bad...but it's not cool either). Basically, to do the partially see-through background I used a .png with 50% alpha transparency (.grey & .important classes). The problem is that IE doesn't do PNG alpha transparency without their proprietary filters applied. Once I figured that out, it still didn't work. Turns out you can't attach the filtered png background to the tr...you must attach to the tds. So I did. Then I found out that the filtered background image stops propogation of clicks. You can fix the clicks that go to links by making the bg image 1x1...no problem. But, the table rows need to get clicks because they expand when clicked. To do that I added a clear 1x1 gif as the background image over the top of the filtered background image. For some reason that takes the click, and passes it through...even though there is still a filtered image.

The reason for wanting opacity for the whole row (as you would see viewing the bigger page in Firefox) is either for rows that are "done" or rows that are "deleted" (rather than the ugly line-through).

If you are confused...join the club. If you can find a solution, you are my hero.

Hello,

I have tried to do a div next to another div. This worked fine. However then in one div I placed thre other div's, and made them stay next to each other. Naturally one of them did not stay in the same line and wraped under neat the others. The problem is that the right div is now displaying well on FireFox, but incorect on Internet Explorer. (Altough when I set the borders I noticed that the border for the right div was wrong Here is my html code:

Code:

Is there maybe a hack I can do to internet explorer so that this element will be solved?

or my css is completly wrong, and I need to change it?

Just a small explanation on the css; I have a div that contains boxes (left) and another div that just contains text (right). This should be placed next to each other since I did the display: inline; in the left div css.

thanks for any sugestions,

regards,
sim085

OK, so IE 8 comes out, and it has the "compatibility mode" icon, to let everyone know the page is broken when the IE8 doesn't like the particular CSS. Through reading through tons of Microsoft documentation, however, I can't find anything that helps validate your CSS for IE8, or even tell you what it likes and what it doesn't like. It actually has some nice developer tools where it allows you to validate your CSS and HTML with W3C, but to no avail. You can be perfectly validated w/ W3C, and still the icon will show up saying it's broken for IE8 (and, in some cases, it actually is).

Any one know of where I can find a resource to validate sites for IE8, so that that damn icon doesn't keep showing up, and so I can more easily figure out what the heck it is IE8 doesn't like about my site?

Hi,

I would really appreciate some help sorting out an error that seems to only crop up on IE.

http://www.formulation.org.uk/redesign

Is fine on mac browsers (Safari/Camino/Firefox etc.). and fine on windows firefox.

the problem appears to be with content wrap. It covers a majority of the banner and navigation bar background. I did manage to fix this with fixed positioning - however this caused adverse effects to the footer.

Thanks in advance,

Tom

Good Evening Folks,

I would like to discuss Transparent PNG files and Internet Explorer.

I like to use 24-bit PNG files with transparency in my web work.
I like to overlay transparent backgrounds onto images with text
formatted over the top.

I like to use transparent PNG's as backgrounds for buttons, text and boxes
all over the place, I even like using them to mask out images.

I am very keen on using 24-Bit transparent PNG files in web design.

The only thing that really stops me or at least puts me off using them
is compatability problems with IE6 and below. IE7 doesn't seem to have
any problems with them.

I have found away to make 24-Bit transparent PNG files work in IE6,
It requires using a proprietary IE filter called AlphaImageLoader
I am still experimenting with it, but It seems to work OK utilising a few @import hacks.

But I can't make this filter work in IE5.5 or IE5, although Micro$oft's
doccumentation says I should be able to make it work in 5.5. Anyway I
could always use @import hacks to make IE5 browsers use GIF images
instead or maybe even JPGs.

Now to me this is a lot of mucking around, I accept that a lot of people still use IE6 but how many people are still using IE5.5 and IE5?
Does anyone have any other theories or ideas on how to go about this?
