HTML - Site Displays Correctly In Chrome But Not In Internet Explorer
I am primarily a PPC / offsite SEO guy. My html skills are horrible and I can't do much more than basic text modificaitons using Microsoft Expression Web.
One of my clients who has the site: http://www.grandaffairrental.com/ displays correctly in Google Chrome on all pages of the site. However in IE and possibly other browsers on the bottom of the home page the text overlaps and looks like garbage. Similar probelms exist on: http://www.grandaffairrental.com/AboutUs.htm (bottom) http://www.grandaffairrental.com/Services.htm (bottom right) http://www.grandaffairrental.com/PriceList.htm If someone could kindly tell me how to rectify this I'd greatly appreciate the assistance. Thanks in advance.

Any help? Cheers Hello everyone. I have just stumbled across this group whilst investigating an issue I am having with a website, what a great resource you have here. I look after the website for my local volunteer fire brigade and I have maintained it for a number of years without any major problems. However in the last couple of weeks it has become apparent that the website is not loading all of the frames for the pages. This appears to only be an issue when browsing with Internet Explorer, as it all looks fine in Firefox. The website is located at http://www.mvcfs.asn.au/ It is only very basic, as that is my current level of HTML programming, I am considering changing to an alternate web layout program like Wordpress, however I haven't looked too much into the details of it yet. I have tried loading this page in I.E. on a number of different computers and they all suffer the same problem, I am currently using version 8.0.600 right now and it is not working, the Firefox version I am viewing it on is 8.0 and that appears to work ok. Is anyone able to suggest a possible solution to this issue, I haven't made any significant changes to the site in the last couple of weeks, so I am not sure why this problem has suddenly come up. Thankyou for your assistance. Regards Matt I have a wordpress blog in which on the single post page the container div is non-existent and the sidebar and footer go into the content div. The page displays fine in firefox it only has the problem in internet explorer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is an example of the problem: http://purplemushroomreviews.com/gam...mption-review/ Hi, can anyone help me with this? My site shows in firefox but when it is viewed using internet explorer, parts are missing and everything is everywhere. I really hope someone can teach me how to correct it. Site is www.agraphix.com.sg Thanks! ps: i know my html is a mess, i'm not really good at it. =/ Robbie. Hi, I've got a problem with a pre-existing webpage not operating correctly with Internet Explorer. The website is in development to be replaced, but until then I'm stuck keeping it updated and working. Normally I use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox for browsing, and didn't notice until today that the page doesn't load correctly with Internet Explorer. The website's basic structure is the header/navigation bar across the top, a left column navigation bar, and then the main/body column on the right. Website: www.hfhsouthcentral.net Issues in Internet Explorer (most likely all related): The site's homepage doesn't load correctly from the base url The links don't operate correctly-instead of opening in the current tab, they either open in a new window or new tab depending on browser default settings The "Home" link simply opens the main body frame for the site home page, as opposed to the complete home page I've tested and verified that the page works incorrectly with IE on different PCs, and displays correctly with other browsers on both PCs and a Mac. The links do work in the primary header/navigation frame as intended with other browsers, but visitors using Internet Explorer receive simply the header/navigation bar when going to the default site. Other things I've attempted to do to fix the issue Using IE's compatibility mode Lowering the security setting Making sure active X was allowed Running IE without any add-ons running Turning off my anti-virus, firewall... I've also flushed the cache and have been testing each change by reloading in IE9 (shift-F5) to verify the problem was still present, and tried running the index.htm file through validator and fixing what it returns as errors (having tested / fixed all of the errors that it returned failed to solve the issue).

Hi, It seems that a lot of threads of this board are geared towards people having CSS issues in IE, I'm learning how to make websites at the moment and have also noticed this issue. Why have Microsoft not done something about this? I don't understand, it seems like Firefox and other browsers have always been a few years in front of IE over the years, so why won't Microsoft just make a browser compatible with all the latest CSS features, if Firefox can do it I don't understand why Microsoft can't? Is making the browser more update really that difficult? Hi Experts, I have a page which has a small toolbar and an Iframe. Somehow I am getting a weird white space between the header and the rendered Iframe (Chart in the snap shot). An expert here on EE told me about box model bug and that it can be be fixed by DOCTYPE declaration. Luckily It got fixed but only on IE7, I want it to work on IE6. Can you please suggest me a way to get rid of this white space?

Worked out the design in Photoshop, cut all the images correctly and put them in tables. For text input I used the textbox form. Sounds like it should work.... However when I load the page in Internet Explorer the textbox and other image form are not level with the rest of the page. Additionally when I load the page with Firefox it looks correct but I cannot use the search (by hitting enter or the spy glass). You can see what I'm talking about at www.masconline.info/test/titlebar.html I managed to get the page to display correctly using layers. However I want to use this page as a sever-side include so that may not be a good idea. After working with the code for over three hours I have to find a solution. HELP ME! Thanks.
