HTML - Firefox Vs. Explorer Rendering Code Differently
Here is the code:
EDIT: I missed part of the code: <id class = "vision"> CLEAN is founded </class>on the belief that education is the essential foundation for global climate change solutions. CLEAN is a program designed to supplement existing elementary (1st-8th grade) science education. First, children learn the fundamental scientific background they need in order to understand global climate change. Second, CLEAN provides them with the tools and support they need to take positive action. Particular emphasis is placed on climate change as a concern that is not only individual and local, but equally collective and global. This emphasis is supported through the development of communication and collaboration between classrooms locally and internationally. The problems presented by global climate change can seem overwhelming, often leading to apathy and inaction. By combining practical information with a fun, engaging, play-based learning environment, CLEAN fosters a positive attitude that empowers children to take meaningful action. and the "Vision" code in my css is very simple: .vision { font: bold 25px Tahoma, 'trebuchet MS', Sans-serif; } In firefox it renders like this: while here it is in Explorer: Why the difference and how do I fix it? I have read that Microsoft doesn't follow the "rules" established by the web boards about how code should be done. Is this the problem in this case? Thanks! Similar TutorialsGreetings and thanks for checking my question out. I oversee an academic site for mostly text at www.zeitschrift.co.uk and when I recently updated it with new material, specifically at www.zeitschrift.co.uk/v4n1jryskamp, it will not seat properly in the browser window, but this page seems to work ok with explorer. Does anyone have any suggestions. Much appreciated, HTML Dad Why do they render differently? For example look at my myspace www.myspace.com/markster106 The profile box (the one with all the text about me) is in one position in firefox, and when you open it with Internet Explorer, it is different. How should I deal with this? Code: .profile { height: 130px; width: 440px; background-image: url('http://www.freewebtown.com/markster106/myspacelayoutmunit/myspacepicture.jpg'); z-index: 2; overflow: automatic; background-color: #9c9c9c; border-style: solid; border-width: 0px; font-family: sans-serif; text-align: left; padding: 2px } The above is the CSS used fgwtg tgwtgw twgwrtgwrtg Hi, I've been making a website but have only been testing it in Internet explorer, now I've tried opening it in Firefox and noticed alot of problems. When I open it in IE, there is about a 4-5mm gap at the top before the header appears andeverything is positioned fine because I have layed it out this way, but in Firefox the gap at the top doesnt exist and therefore everything is a few millimeters out of position (text, images etc). Is there anyway that I can get rid of this gap at the top of the IE page so that it looks the same? I have tried margin-top with no luck. CSS code: Code: /*This first piece of 'body' code defines what colour the background of the whole website is. It is set to #000000, I.E. black.*/ body { background: #000000; color: white; } div#site { display: block; color: #000000; margin-top: -10px; } /*This header code sets the size and background image of the header section of the website. It sets the image to a picture I have created called 'header2', and the code also needs to link to the image as it's not in the same folder as the css/html files, so the code 'images/header2.gif' finds the file 'header2.gif' in the sub-folder 'images'. */ #header { background: url(images/header2.gif); width: 865px; height: 143px; } /*This header .text section defines any text properties that will be used if I decide to add any text to the header area.*/ #header .text { position:relative; top:42px; left:322px; word-spacing: 24px; font-size: large; } /*The navbar2 section of code defines how the navigation bar is set out. The width is set at 70% so that the bar doesnt go all the way across the screen. It is also center-aligned to make the page look neat.*/ div#navbar2 { width: 70%; border-top: solid #000 0px; border-bottom: solid #000 0px; background-image: url(images/button.gif); } div#navbar2 ul { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #FFFFFF; line-height: 30px; white-space: nowrap; } div#navbar2 li { list-style-type: none; display: inline; } /*This code sets how the text should be layed out on the navigation bar.

I have created two different size ones as one of my html pages has a lot more content on it. here are in the divs in CSS:
Code: #picstrip{ width:200px; height:740px; padding: 10px 10px 20px 10px; background-color:#8d6cd1; z-index:999999; float:right; } #picstrip2{ width:200px; height:1270px; padding: 10px 10px 20px 10px; background-color:#8d6cd1; z-index:999999; float:right; } I want these divs to be touching the footer i have created: Code: #footer{ background-color:#2ba475; width:800px; font-size:10px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight:bold; } table.foot{ text-align:center; } I am currently able to make it work it just one of the web browsers at a time. The div seems to be shorter in size in IE. is there any way round this problem? I will be so greatful for any help. Thank You I can not seem to figure this issue out. I know certain browers render different ... for IE FF uses alt tags and IE title tags... (I think thats right) but this issue seems weird there is a shadow around my List in IE but not in Firefox and the first line is broken to a second line in Internet explorer take a look This might not even be fixable, Thx! M My new website MoveBR.com isn't rendering correctly in Firefox, but it seems to be working fine in IE. Specifically the picture on the left is messing up the footer. Just the page I've linked to though...it's a test page to get this working on others. It seems to do this whether the picture is inside the content or in its own div. And if anyone is using Safari, I'd appreciate it if you could tell me how it looks there too. Anyone else come across problems with table rendering in firefox? It seems to happen with larger tables, say a table with 30+ cells for a calendar. Sometimes firefox will render extra cells and throw everything off. The code is fine, this will happen randomly in different locations. Sometimes a refresh will fix the issue, sometimes the refresh will just move the issue to another location. I've noticed that display:inline-table; fixes the problem for firefox, but in other browsers like opera display:inline-table; will get rid of margins (which I need). Anyone know anything about this? I have run into a problem when using tables in Firefox. I code for IE 6.0 and I like my browser to determine when to put text on a new line once the table width has been reached. Rather than put breaks <br> in my text I just let the browser decide. When I open a page in Firefox it does not wrap the text within the table it just allows the text to flow to the right until the end of the text occurs. To fix this I now have to use <br> whenever I want a new line to begin but this creates other problems when others view my pages in IE 6 or IE 7 as the line breaks are now choppy sometimes consisting of one word on a line. My screen resolution is 1280x1024 but if someone does not have this resolution the page is a mess. I am using Dreamweaver as my editor and Firefox 2.0.0.15. Works just fine with IE 6 or IE 7. Can anyone help me with this? Here is an example of a page that I been forced to put <br> at the end of each line: http://www.outdoorphotographycanada.com/dwilson.html Thanks, Dave Hello, I am building a website for a client : http://timhawarah.com/testing.php In Firefox (my favorite browser) there is about a 15 px space in the rooftop of the house which is wrong.

Thank you <html> <head> <STYLE TYPE="text/css"> <!-- body { background-color: #570000; background-image: url(http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r...uzaramka.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center; background-position: top; } --> </STYLE> </head> </html> i made a website and everything looks good on it when i view it in firefox but when i use explorer some of the images wont show up, just has the red x in the corner. any suggestions whats goin on? Hi, Now am developing a site for my company, am using HTML and CSS for site designing. If I view the page in Firefox and IE, Firefox looks correct, but in IE the page looks some extra spaces. Is there any tag (or) code is available to fix this issue.. (or) Please advise me a solution to correct the issue. Thanks for your help in advance. So, I mainly use firefox, and my page looks fine in firefox.. but in Internet explorer there are some issues: heres the code: Code: <div align="center" id=article> <table margin:0 border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td colspan="3"><img src="images/articles/top.jpg"/> </td> </tr> <td width="4px" style="background-image: url(images/articles/left.jpg)"></td> <td width="734px" style="background-image: url(images/articles/middle.jpg)"> <br>Text here.... </td> <td width="4px" style="background-image: url(images/articles/right.jpg)"></td></tr> </table> <table margin:0 border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td><img src="images/articles/top.jpg"/> </td> </tr></table></div> Basically, I want that set up so I can put text in and the pics are already made to that they tile properly and neatly, that works, except there are spaces between top.jpg and middle.jpg I reused top.jpg on the bottom, cuz it looks the same anyway and it saves bandwidth by reusing the same pic. But theres a space there too, except not in firefox, which is how it is supposed to look. Basically, top.jpg, left.jpg and right.jpg form a border, and middle.jpg is a shade of grey that fades to a darker color, but tiles correctly for the background, while text is displayed there... and it works, except for the spaces between top.jpg and the rest of the places. Thanks for any help! Hello, We have been trying to find the best way to fix our band website www.random-rocks.com the buttons work on Internet Explorer but not in firefox or others. The Buttons i'm talking about are the one's on the left side of our website.... we designed the site with html...etc... Anyone, please help me... with this problem.... use the source code... if that we help you. Thank you.....it has been way to long with this problem. thanks Hi, I know this is quite a common and problem, and it is one that often make me want to pull my hair out! The problem this time is that my problems arise from a database generated layout. In that, depending on how many fields are in a database, my code will display a number of small divs. When viewed in firefox it displays perfectly as I would want, but in I.E it goes all funny. Here is the code Code: <?php mysql_connect("localhost", "0607197", "12345") or die("Can't connect to database server!"); mysql_select_db("db0607197") or die(" Can't select database!"); $updated = FALSE; if(count($_POST) > 0){ $admin = $_POST['admin']; array_map('intval',$admin); $admin = implode(',',$admin); mysql_query("UPDATE seats SET admin=1 WHERE id IN ($admin)") or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR); $updated=TRUE; } ?> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" method="post"> <?php ?> <?php $booked = "<b>Seat Booked</b>"; $sql = "SELECT id,username,admin,rowId,columnId FROM seats ORDER by id ASC"; $result = mysql_query($sql) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR); while(list($id,$username,$admin,$columnId,$rowId,)=mysql_fetch_row($result)){ if($admin==1){ echo '<div style="background-color:red;align:center;width:53px;text-align:center;padding-top:5px;padding-bottom:5px;float:right;height:43px;border:2px solid #FFFFFF;"><b><font color="black">'.$rowId.''.$columnId.'</div>'."\n"; } if($admin==0){ $checked = ($admin==1) ? 'checked="checked"' : ''; echo '<div style="background-color:green;padding-bottom:5px;align:center;width:53px;font-weight:bold;text-align:center;padding-top:5px;float:right;height:43px;border:2px solid #FFFFFF;"><b><font color="black">'.$rowId.''.$columnId.'<input type="checkbox" name="admin[]" value="'.$id.'" /></div>'."\n"; } } ?> <p><div style="float:bottom;text-align:center;paddin-top:40px;"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Book Seat" /> </div> </form> Could this be solved by some simple CSS? Position:absolute perhaps or will I need a better, more efficient way of outputting the data? Advice please. Thanks in advance Daniel Could someone here please tell me why the site I am building displays the left side navigation bar differently in Firefox and in Internet Explorer? I have worked on this problem for about 8 hours and I want to bang my head on my desk because I cannot figure it out. Here's the site: www.carlosuresti.com Any help would be much appreciated as my boss wants this done ASAP. Thanks. -thur Hi Guys, I was hoping you could perhaps help me with a little issue, this has been bugging me for quite a few hours and I'm entirely at a loss of how to deal with it. (I'm not new at the forums, I just can't remember my previous username " Basically the following page - http://www.citybeat.co.uk/breakfast/index.php The header is displaying fine and everything looks dandy in Firefox, open in Internet Explorer however, well, as usual - that's an entirely different story. The top is in HTML not CSS so source code is viewable, you'll see the in internet explorer the image that should be on the left has centered and the background colour has dissappeared.. I'm really hoping someone can help before I lose the will! Thanks, Andy |
