CSS - All Browsers Vs Ie - Css Trouble!

Hello,
With following css for header

Code:

div#header{
	height:75px;
	background-color:#ffffcc;
}

I am getting three different views in IE, FF, Opera. In IE entire background color is pale yellow, In FF only the line is pale yellow. In opera line and area below it is pale yellow.
Here goes goes html.
Code:

<div id="header">
  <h3 align = "center">Welcome to <b>Your Space</b></h3>
</div>

What is going wrong here?
Thank you.

I need to link to differnt style sheets to a page and i need it so it will use one if the user has IE and a differnt one if the user is using anything else that works properly. Is this posable and if it is please tell me how? and if theres a way of doing it that uses php i would like to use that method.
thanks

I'm in the process of revamping my website and am trying to use css to position things. I've used browsershots to view what the website looks like in different browsers and platforms. All is well with one exception, IE6! Grrr.

Now I'm a total css newbie so what I'm doing wrong is probably painfully obvious to you guys, but I've been beating my head against this for a while now and would appreciate it if someone could take a look over my shoulder and see if they can spot the problem.

If you use IE6 you'll notice that the featured products are listed below the last 'service ad' image instead of at the top of that 'column' even with the first 'serivce ad' image.

Again, any help in diagnosing/fixing this issue is greatly appreciated!

Here's a link to the page:

My web site (URL address blocked: See forum rules) is causing me problems with CSS since I have reworked it.
If you look at my web pages in Internet Explorer they look perfect. In Firefox when loading some of the pages the top logo blinks and takes a few seconds to load. In Opera some pages move slightly to the right.
I know the problem is related to the length of the center div but I have no idea how to fix this unless I make the small centers longer.
Also my previous version of this site just used one image. Logo.gif was in the background.
I have put Logo.gif in the header and have used GREEN.jpg as my background now.

Hi all,

I seem to be stumped on something that is probably simple. At this test site you'll notice the left nav area as well as the text content area.

I am trying to set it up so that both are 6 pixels below the header image. Obviously, then they would be even with each other.

Everything I've tried has come close but never right in both FF & IE. Could someone please give me a hand with this?

Thanks!

Chris

Hey All:

Its that time again- testing my pages in different browsers. I have browser cam for another 7 hours, this is my snapshot of the page I am testing.

Ok, this is the first time I am testing my code. Any reason why older browsers are not interpreting my CSS correctly? Maybe something I should know about older browsers.

Any feedback is helpful- thanks

Hello,

I've got a question about CSS3.
That are the correct procedures to make my CSS code compatible with all the browsers ? For example, I want that the elements of my website stay identicals on all the browsers.

Thank you in advance !

I have a three column (25% - 50% - 25%) page layout via CSS which works perfect in IE. But it does not work in Firefox. Here is my CSS code.

#leftColumn {
float:left;
width:25%;
margin: 5px 3px 0px;
padding: 0;
}
* html #leftColumn {
width:25%;
}

#rightColumn {
float:right;
width:25%;
margin: 5px 2px 0px 3px;
padding: 0;
}
* html #rightColumn {
width:25%;
}

#main3Column {
margin:5px 25% 5px 25%;
padding: 0;
/* 50% or auto or no width does not work in IE.
100% here is the remaining of the available after left and right columns */
width:100%;
}

The ID 'main3Column' is for the middle column. Width: 100% works fine in IE as it excludes 25% for left and 25% for right and 100% of whatever remaining for the middle column.

But in Firefox, middle column is taking 100% of the screen width instead of the remaining after left and right columns.

Is it possible to come up with a code which works for both IE and CSS ? Please help.

Hi,
I have been thinking about this cross browser problem. Is there a list of things that FireFox can do and IE can't (plus other browsers) in CSS.
It would be great if somewhere on the net there would be a list of these things so i could use it as a cross refferance.
.

At the mo i just use trial and error but th\at means spending hours to get designs just right

Thanks

I have a small box displayed at the top of the page for an "anouncment column". Opera and IE show it properly, sort of, and NEtscape/mozilla show it further down the page. I want it to be at the VERY top of the page, IE/Opera show it a few px down and mozilla/netscape show it a good 10+ down. I have tried playing with padding and it made no difference. These browsers are the new versions.

any ideas?

Code:

<div style="position: absolute; left: 617px; top; 0px; width: 147px; height: 30px; background-color: transperant; padding: 0px;">
<h5>text is here</h5>

</div>

the style sheet
Code:

  body {
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman",
          Times, serif; 
}
}
  h1 {
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
text-align: center;
font-size: 30px }
  h2 {
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
text-align: center;
font-size: 25px }
h3 
{
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
text-align: center;
font-size: 20px }
h4 
{
FONT-WEIGHT: normal;
text-align: center;
font-size: 15px }
h5 
{ 
padding: 0px;
FONT-WEIGHT: normal;
text-align: center;
font-size: 12px }
h6 
{
FONT-WEIGHT: normal;
text-align: center;
font-size: 9px }
p {

text-align: left;

    color: #000000;
font-size: 12px }
hr {color: #7d7c7c }

good day

looking for some css that is compeltely compatable among all major browsers.. namely firefox, ie, safari, and opera.. i've been searching all over the net and forums for css, but cant find any..

i just want a simple 3 column layout, with the middle column being auto width, and left and right fixed width.. can someone point me in the right direct?

Just when you think you have everything pixelperfect (even on IE6) IE7 drops by. In most browser the page works correctly, the colored blocks all have their roll-over.
But something is different in IE7: it gets wrecked.

Is it possible to have IE7 behave like IE6? That would be most convenient for me, but that's only a work around, not a solution.

So a couple of similar pages:

Please have a look with me:

(in the xml/html files, the css files are the same)
version2 is similar to the first, except I have only 1 column filled.
version3 is similar to the first, except I have only 2 columns filled.

version2 is similar to the first, except I have only 1 column filled.
What you see: there are some roll-overs in the first column except the first one on top ??
version2 is similar to the first, except I have only 1 column filled.
What you see: there are some roll-overs in the first column except the first four on top ??

I think it might be some repeating/stacking in positioning, but to me:
it seems like (not to shabby but somewhat) proper css code?

NOPE IT'S A VISIBILITY ISSUE See next post...

Any idea why this error ONLY in IE7 occurs? And how to solve it??

I'm using the following code:

<font style="font-family:Verdana; font-size:10px; line-height: 70%; color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"<br />Photo Caption Goes Here</font>

And it doesn't seem to be cross-browser compatible.

The photo caption seems to publish differently across multiple browsers. I like how it's displayed in Firefox but on other browsers the photo caption is partially displayed or the line height is too close together. What's the best way to add css to a <font style=""> so it's cross browser compatible? Or does this have something to do with other styles on the page?

I'm currently working on a very basic website, which seems on the edge of finishing. www.meltonbusiness.co.uk

Tiny hiccup remains is that the image RIGHTLY appears on "content area's" top right in Firefox but the same image appears right at the bottom of the Content.

Can anyone help.

I'm about to begin designing a site, and I thought, since an external css file is only downloaded once, to make it easier to browse the site after everything has been loaded on the index(having all the images on the style be inserted through CSS), including headers navigation and such. But then I thought about compatitbility for gecko browsers, which don't display images. Instead the show the alt text. So my question is, is there any way to apply alt text for images displayed through CSS?

Maybe in the div that the image is in I was wondering, I'm not entirely sure. And thought I'd ask.
