HTML - Simplistic Website, Showing Different Layout On Different Ie Versions.
Hello there. Firstly, thank you for any and all help here.
I am no web developer, but I have done some for my degree and other various bits/bobs. I produced a very simplistic website for a client, however the website is showing up different, on different PC's and I cannot get to the bottom of it. Now, I know this is down to my own inexperience in coding, but I followed various books, online suggestions for layout (relative, margin) positioning techniques, and the website looks fine on my PC, on my mrs work PC, even on the clients PC in his office (this is a mixture of IE8 - Win7, XP). However, I get an email from the client, and his understudy, last night saying the website looks terrible. All the text the 3rd column looks out of line (maybe because I used line:height?). As you can see, without having a clear understanding of the backbone of HTML coding, I am going to suffer. The CSS validates, the HTML validates with W3c. The website is: http://www.fpcuk.co.uk The issue is with IE7 and IE8. I coded the website in IE8, but it looks different on IE7. Could you have a look at it for me, and let me know where I have gone wrong. or give me some tips on making it compatible with both IE7 / IE8. There is only about 20 lines of code. It is mainly the right-hand column. Here 's a few images: IE7 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...sueWithIE7.png IE8 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Jertsy/IE8.png I have nothing but respect for Web Developers, having to build websites for different browsers versions, damn.. So, after looking at my code - can you see any glaring issues that will cause it to distort the layout in different versions. Thank you very much. Spencer K EDIT: FFS!!! I'm tearing my hair out with this. I just cannot get the website to look right in IE7 and IE8 - its driving me fking crazy.. Even adding; Code: <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=EmulateIE7″ /> To the top of the page, hoping this will force IE8 to be compatible with IE7 does not work. How on earth am I supposed to figure this out. Everything I try looks different, everything. Not much help here either. Similar TutorialsSorry, I don't know where to post that, but I want to try to build a website for iPod but I have no idea how to start, I can make website for desktop version, but not on iPod version. How different do I have to do? Where to start? Thank you. Hey All, don't know if you can help but, my website address is: http://glycemicindexandweightloss.com if you look at the source page you will see that all of the coding is there but the website site states that it is formatted incorrectly. and none of the content shows up. If anyone can take a quick look at this and possibly see something off I would really appreciate it. thanks in advance. Michelle I designed a website for a client. It shows fine on my mac in Firefox but the CSS isn't loading properly in Windows Browsers because the background and the Link details aren't loading at all.

Anyway I know a few things about HTML and CSS... Also about Photoshop... I have been making some not awesome but good designs for blogs. I stopped a while ago since I kind of got bored at the time. For the last week I got a few new ideas and since then I'm planing a big come back. Anyway in the ideas I'm thinking of making a blog whos picture will be randomly selected among some of the ones I uploaded somewhere on then net. So I'm actualy looking for some type of a script that I could insert somewhere in the code that will somehow randomly select a link of lets say 3 links and then insert it somewhere else in the code. Or in more simple way ( i tend to complicate things ) I'm looking for something that will select a random picture from thoes to which I have links added in the code and then show it on the desired place as a backgraund and so on. I hope you understood me well (my English isn't the best too) and I hope to have an answer soon... Thank you in advance... Hello, I'm using Kubuntu Linux.

Hi! I have just reuploaded my site, which contains 3 image flips, and I am only seeing the outline of where the images should be in both Safari and Internet Explorer. This is strange because before re-uploading, this functioned just fin. Any ideas? Thanks! Here is the problem area: http://www.lolaandcricket.com/loe/index.html Hello. I just want to start off by saying that I have never made a website before; I am a film maker. Well, I had a project in mind that I wanted to fulfill, and I didn't know how to do it, so I came across this forum because it seemed like a knowledgeable resource. I have a bunch of videos that I have made over the past few years, and I want to create a website that has all of those videos to view. All I want my website to have is a name of my production company on the top, and a list of text that, when clicked, opens each respective video up in a new window below that. And that is all. If you could walk me step by step on this venture of mine, I would be most thankful. Adam I am making a website and my layout changes from computer to computer. What i mean is, on my computer the layout looks fine, on another one the layout is distorted. www.mlbmotors.com Hi all, hopefully I'm posting this in the right spot. I'm in the process of designing the layout for a new website, but I'd like some input as far as your recommended method for programming the skeleton of the attached image. I'd like to keep the look similar to this. Your recommended coding samples would be GREATLY appreciated! I am not sure whether or not this is the right category to put this in but hopefully you lot wont mind... I just wanted to know that if i wanted to make a layout of any shape or design that I wanted, would I first have to make the layout on photoshop or fireworks and then import the picture onto dreamweaver, then use div tags to layer things and such? just wanting to know becuase I'm starting to try and make more cutting edge websites even though I have made a few with flash and such Thanks for your time Sam Hi all, I just learn html+css and now I'm building my first website - http://www.bcichemical.com. My website look fine on IE but it doesnt look right on Mozilla, Can someone guide me on this matter. Thanks Hi, I am trying to create a liquid website. I have drawn up a prototype on paint and the image is attached. Can anyone help me to turn the prototype into a website? Thanks, I am making my band a website. I have all the graphics i need (as in the menu and background), but I don't know how to put it all together and make it good looking. here is a picture of the general idea. That would go all the way to the bottom of the page and all the rest of the space would just be black. Now of course, thats not how it would exactly look, that was just a map out that I made in two seconds. I need just the area where people read all the info and such to scroll alone, and to have nothing else to do so. Just in case anyone doesn't know what i mean by "put it all together" I mean to get the top thing where it says band name on, and have the menu on the side, the place where everyone reads next to it, a bit of space below the area where people read, and the whole left be just black. thanks in advance EDIT- I realized i also should probably say this too. There is a graphic that runs through the entire page (band name area, menu, and place where people read). The band name area is a jpg, menu is a flash file, and then the place where people read is just regualr. well im creating a new website layout but its being an ass...or its just me well its like 5am here in the UK now which is probebly the reason for the problem but ah well i need it sorting asap and i cant work it out. my website is http://www.rharris28.com so you can see for yourself. basicly everything apart from the bar at the bottom should be on one line, but it just wont do it. i refuse to use tables as ive broken that habbit and want to stear clear of tables at all costs. so its all div's and css work. my html is HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Mixing Pixels - Internet Services :: Homepage</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css"> <meta name="verify-v1" content="KY6WP1pcuAyddeAyjc4oFZVeQDE0qbbA1GGcJ2Zgu8Y=" /> </head> <body> <div id="background" align="center"> <div id="container" align="left"> <div id="tb"> <div id="tbbg"></div> <div id="topsep"></div> <div id="tophome"></div> <div id="topsep"></div> <div id="topmap"></div> <div id="topsep"></div> <div id="topcontacts"></div> <div id="topsep"></div> <div id="searchbg"><b>Search:</b></div> </div> <div id="topmenu"> <div id="topmenubg">Home</div> <div id="topmenusep"></div> <div id="topmenubg">News</div> <div id="topmenusep"></div> <div id="topmenubg">Downloads</div> <div id="topmenusep"></div> <div id="topmenubg">Search</div> <div id="topmenusep"></div> <div id="topmenubgend">Services</div> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> and my CSS is Code: * { margin: 0; padding: 0; } #background { background-color:#01557C; height: 100%; width: 100%; } #container { background-color:#FFFFFF; width: 759px; height:500px; } #tbbg { background-image:url(/images/main01.jpg); width:256px; height:41px; } #tb { float:left; width:759px; } #tophome { background-image:url(images/but_home.gif); width:74px; height:41px; } #topmap { background-image:url(images/but_site_map.gif); width:94px; height:41px; } #topcontacts { background-image:url(images/but_contacts.gif); width:96px; height:41px; } #topsep { background-image:url(images/separator.gif); width:2px; height:41px; } #searchbg { width: 231px; height: 41px; background-image:url(images/fon01.gif); } #topmenu { width:759px; } #topmenubg { background-image:url(images/fon_menu.gif); width:132px; height:42px; float:left; text-align:center; } #topmenubgend { background-image:url(images/fon_menu.gif); width:135px; height:42px; float:left; } #topmenusep { background-image:url(images/e_menu.gif); width:24px; height:42px; float:left; } please help...many thanks hello, I want to figure out a way to make the layout of my website fixed, depending on the screen resolution and browser of the person that is viewing my site. I would like a layout with three rows (Header, content, Footer). the Content row should be 2 columns. i would specifically like the Header and Footer rows to be Fixed. and the right column in the content row to have a scroll bar, so that the content in it is the only thing I can scroll while my top banner and footer stay put. Can anyone orient me towards tutorials or any sort of information that might help me solve this? Thank you! Is it wrong to use tables to build your website's layout? For example, on one column you'd have the navigation, and on the other column you'd have the main website content. Is this method wrong? Hey all, I'm new here, and I love the layout of this website! I like the bright colors! Anyway... I created a website layout/site in Photoshop CS 5. The website: www.thegarbagedump.net I saved it as a html & images.. The issue I am having is when you click one of the bottons I want it to open the html document and display it within that square area with the border around it. I know I probably need a frame to do this, however I dont know how to add a frame, and it appears photoshop saved it in tables.. Could you please review the html source, and tell me how/where to add a frame, and make the Home, About, Domains button appear within that square area with the border? Thank You, Justin Hello! I am working on building a website, and eventually I have managed to find a resolve to all the hurdles that I have come across until it was pointed out to me that there are certain things that don't show up in IE. I have tried it in every version available to me up to 8 and there is one thing that reoccurs each time. If you open it in Chrome or Firefox it works fine. The cascading menu that should appear across the top of the page does not. I have a version of the site uploaded he http://users.farmerstel.com/wabbs125/work/index.html I have been using webpage maker to build the site in. If any one knows of a way to help I would very much appreciate any and all offerings. I have attached a copy of the script. Thank you in advance! Tracy Hi All, I have developed my website using Internet Explorer version 7.0 which was on my PC. When I opened site in Internet Explorer 6.0 I observed that there is a lot of difference in what is there on v7.0 and now on v6.0. I found many images has got displaced from there original location. Even there is are changes in the color scheme and the background effect of text. I use to see text in <LEGEND> tag in "white " color in my IP7.0 which is apearing in "Blue" color in IP6.0. I think this is happening due to difference in version of IP. Is that correct? Please suggest me the way how to design website so that it will appear as same irrespective of the browser used to open it. Thanks in advance. Regards, Jaas. Rather than write them out i took a screenshot. So how do i get past those? |
