HTML - Text Size In Ie Vs Firefox
Hello. I'm helping my 9yo son make a webpage, and I have stumbled across a text display behavior I don't understand. See images below.
The issue is that text over a certain size does not appear correctly in IE6. The 1st image shows the file as created in Nvu, with rows of incrementally larger text. The 2nd shows the file in Firefox; each row of text is larger than the last, as it should be. The 3rd attachment shows the same file in IE6; after the 5th row, the text size remains the same. Why doesn't the text display correctly in IE6? I tried on another PC; same result. The upshot is that my son's webpage looks correct (i.e. as it looked when designed in Nvu) when viewed in Firefox, but not in IE6. Is this correctable? Thanks.

Hi, I would like to know if I can make the background image (over which I will write the content of the page) to fit the space I'm using. For example, I don`t how to explain it , but I see sites with the navigation bar image or the content image to adapt its size according to the amount of text on them. And then it seems like they are infinite, again, it adapts to the isze of the page. But my background image stays the same size all the time and I can see the end of it.

I mostly just make small changes on Dreamweaver so I dont have to get a web guy for changing a sentence here and there. My issue: I almost always use Firefox and looked at my changes on this browser.... Once I looked at IE for my page, there are weird symbols. Does anyone know why this is occuring? Its on my header for "Se Habla Espanol" and on any symbols in the text. Here is a couple links to good pages & pages with the weird symbols. http://www.firstchoicedebtrelief.com/about-us/ http://www.firstchoicedebtrelief.com/debt-settlement/ here is the text example im referring to. This debt relief strategy requires that you stop making payments to creditors entirely. Instead, you save your “payments” in a special account. When that amount approaches 40%-60% of one of your account balances, your debt settlement negotiator contacts your creditor and offers to settle for that lump sum on the spot. Thanks so much to anyone who can help...... Issues like this can take me forever to figure out. Hi! I have a page that contains a text area. What I want it to do is to change its size according to the size of the browser window. How can I make it do that? I did it once but just can't seem to remember how I did it. Thanks I'm building a webpage for this nonprofit company and after moving data over from the old website to my newly created site it looks fine in Firefox but shifts halfway down the page. I am using dreamweaver to make the site. any ideas why? Here's a sample of what I mean: http://www.doornetwork.org/test/s_week.htm other pages look fine like this: http://www.doornetwork.org/test/miami.htm the original site has them set correctly like this: http://www.doornetwork.org/d_week.htm I didn't make the old site and am a relatively amateur website maker. Any help would be grateful. edit: a few friends have confirmed it looks right in Opera and IE7 I have this strange problem... my text in Firefox is taller then IE... html in valid w3c and css the same... what can I do ? please help ... Hello. I'm back again. This time I have a different problem: Because the text sizes in IE are much smaller than in Firefox, the alignment of certain divs comes out disarranged. Notice that in FF, the big red box's position begins at midpoint of the contact us navigation. But, in IE it begins a big close to the end. I think this is due to the different text sizes. I was wondering if I could use javascript to test which browser is currently being viewed, and base on the browser type it would switch between css to correct the differences? (Sorry for the overly huge images) Also, I'll post the code later. For some strange reason if I want to have an ad or image on the left of my text article usually i put a div code around whatever it is like.. Code: <div style="DISPLAY: block; FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 0px 0px"> </div> This works GREAT in firefox but then i was shocked when i went over to Internet explorer and tested my site there using the latest browser.. it doesnt acknowledge that code and so the ad or the image ends up being above my article instead of nicely on the left and the text wrapped around it on the right like you see in firefox Any ideas how to get around this? Maybe a fix that works for ie. and firefox? thank you guys and gals in advance Why Does Alt Text in the html img Tag Not Work in Firefox? It works well in IE but not in Firefox. Anyone knows why? Thanks in advance. |
