HTML - Firefox Vs Ie Rendering Issue

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

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.

In IE the website looks like it should.

What can I do to correct this problem.

Any help would be most appreciated!

Thanks,
TaylorJumbo

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!

This seems to be an oddity these days, but I have a problem with my website in Firefox though it works just fine in IE (6 or 7). The website displays correctly, but my form fields will not allow any text to be put in them. The weird thing is I have another website that uses the same formatting for the text fields and they work fine...

Code for the form that works in IE and not Firefox is as follows:
<div align="right">
<form method="post" action="test/login.asp" name="LoginForm">
<input name="action" value="login" type="hidden" />
<table>
<tr>
<td><label>Username:</label></td><td><input name="UserName" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label>Password:</label></td><td><input name="Password" type="password" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<button name="LoginBtn">Login</button><br />
</form>
</div>

Code for the form that works in both is as follows:
<div id="layer3">
<h2>Client Login Form</h2>
<form method="post" action="users/login.asp" name="Login">
<table>
<tr>
<td><label>Username:</label></td><td><input name="UserName" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label>Password:</label></td><td><input name="Password" type="password" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<button name="LoginBtn">Login</button><br />
</form>
</div>

Both forms are inside <div> tags, both are on pages that use frames. Let me know if there's something I'm missing...

below header the sidebar text is not clickable in Firefox but working fine in IE. Can any one help me please.

thanks

ok, i have honestly been trying to get this fixed for days but i do not know what else to try.

i need help trying to get the following head code to look the same in ff and ie.

ff displays it correctly (of course), but ie seems to be off. the header leans towards the left and everything is uneven.

i don't know if it's because something is not a percentage, or if i have too many percentages defined.

here's the code:

Code:

N00b here, brought forth out of desperation and the fact that none of my coder-friends have a clue whats causing this.

Currently coding my first website ( by hand in notepad. Awesome learning... thinger ... not so great on the troubleshooting.)

So- can anyone help me fix why this site looks fine on IE, but the BG doesn't quite align in firefox?

Would be MUCHLY appreciated!

I've just come to do my new site, but for some reason I can't get the site to display properly in Firefox 2.0.0.1. The images aren't working properly, the banner image I have put in place works fine in IE, displays in Opera (I'm still working on the layout), but won't display at all in Firefox. If I use the developer toolbar on my page, it reports as a broken image, but I click the link and the image displays. The alt text appears in my layout, which is more confusing.

But I can't find a solution for this. It's nothing to do with the markup, I've tried displaying the image in a completely blank page, still nothing.

I have a U3 drive, it has Firefox 1.5 loaded on it, the image displays fine in there.

Any ideas?

http://www.hypersonicscream.com - Can anyone let me know if it's a problem with my copy of Firefox?

I am having a problem with content being misaligned in Firefox. If you look at the page in IE it looks fine. But several elements are misaligned in Firefox. If you look at the site www.displaypoints.com/promotions (currently displaying as http://69.89.31.104/~displayp/promotions.html) in IE and then Firefox you can see the issue. This is happening on several pages including this one so I'm sure it's a coding issue but I can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

Dear All,

As someone relatively novice in html I am currently redesigning my website and have got it to look exactly how I want it in Firefox. However, it does not display properly in IE. The url in question is www.adamwestmagic.com/home.php.

The differences to note are the top right images of the 'heart' and bottom left images of the 'spade' show a small gap below them - I believe this is something to do with the 'overflow' option and have tried adding in a 'style' command to counter this but with no luck, and am not well versed in CSS to do it via that (yet). EDIT: This has been fixed - I was following standard coding procedure of indenting to aid reading, so was indenting my <tr><td> tags. Removing tabs (removing whitespace) around the <img> tags fixed the problem. Thank you IE!

Another obvious discrepancy is the left hand 'gradient' image - IE seems to have rotated it by 90 degrees for no apparent reason. EDIT: This is now also fixed, by changing the 38 x 1 pixel png image for a jpg which magically remedied it. God knows why. This is turning into a bit of a soliloquy!

The final, and perhaps more substantial difference is that IE does not dynamically resize the page, whereas Firefox does. I know this is perhaps unconventional in not picking a size for the page and leaving left and right space for higher resolutions, but I do not like that look on large screens.

I have changed to a black background for the purpose of debugging - it would be very difficult to see the gradient images etc. with the standard grey/white background.

Interestingly these issues vary compared to another computer. I am running XP and IE 7 and see the error with the gradient image, but resizing happens fine. Another computer (laptop) running Vista and IE 7 doesn't seem to have the gradient image problem, but does not resize properly. I am thoroughly confused!

Any help is gratefully received, thank you.

I have designed this HTML home page with a table and it is coming up different in IE8 and Firefox but comes in fine with Safari and Chrome. The navigation area labeled "testing" in navy blue should have a width that reaches from each side. When opening in IE8 or Firefox, it comes up short and I cannot figure this out. Can someone look at this simple code and tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,

Tim

Hi,

i am new to this forum and would really like to congratulate all of the administrators and people keeping up this very good work.

I am trying to make a nested table in HTML, however i have some display issues. In Firefox, all the images and tables display well, however in IE, the bottom part (bootom image) does not display at all.

The page link is http://www.carmelgcauchi.com/site/TE...R%20KOTBA.html

There is also onother page wherby Firefox displays all the page correctly, while IE omits part of the table.

The link is http://www.carmelgcauchi.com/site/dwari.html

all help would be really appreciated.

regards

Hi, I'm having an issue with Firefox. I create the page graphics in Photoshop CS4 and slice it up. Then save the html and images into Dreamweaver where I add rollovers and a video clip. It looks perfect in IE and Chrome... But lines go across the screen in Firefox near the video. Why does Firefox do this? And is there a way to fix it without ruining how it looks in IE and Chrome? The site has been up for a year now and nobody has said anything or complains, but it drives me crazy and it does this whenever I try to make a new site this way with a video on it. I used Firebug, and when I change a <tr> value it fixes that area and makes another area look even worse. How can this be fixed?

Thanks!

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

Fixed it on my own. Sorry about the post.
