HTML - Can Anyone Outline Major Cross-broswer Issues?
Hello I'm new to doing websites but recently I have come to understand that particularly Internet Explorer has lots of issues! I realized this after a design that I had evolved mainly testing between Firefox and Safari just went retarded in Internet Explorer, and now I'm not sure what to expect. Can anyone outline the main issues that set IE apart? And whether there is a way to circumvent them? Because for everything I've tried so far Firefox Safari and Omniweb all behave predictably and relatively the same.
Thanks- Frustrated Fishpaws Similar TutorialsCan someone take a look at my CSS and HTML and tell me why the layout lines up correctly in IE but not firefox? In IE the right side div (#content2) lines up beautifully with my header and left content div, but in firefox it is pushed to the bottom of the wrapper below the left content div. Can anyone give me a hand? Here's my CSS: PHP Code: }body { margin: 0; padding: 0; background-color: #FFFFFF; color: #000000; } #wrapper { width: 800px; background-color:#FFFFFF; position:relative; } #banner { width: 800px; height: 150px; background-color:#FFFFFF; border-style:dotted; border-width:2px; border-color:#660033; border-bottom-style:none; } #menu { width: 800px; height: 30px; background-color:#660033; color: White; padding-top: 4px; } #content { padding: 5px; float: left; width: 500px; line-height: 1.1em; text-align:justify; background-color:#FFFFFF; border-style:dotted; border-width:2px; border-color:#660033; border-top-style: none; } #content2 { padding: 5px; float:right; width: 300px; line-height: 1.4em; text-align:justify; background-color:#FFFFFF; border-style:dotted; border-width:2px; border-color:#660033; border-top-style: none; border-left-style: none; Here's the HTML to go along with it: HTML Code: <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="layout.css"> <title></title> <meta name="vs_targetSchema" content="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5"> </head> <body> <center> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="banner"></div> <div id="menu"><font class="menu"><a class="menu" href="meetMV.htm">link here</a> | <a class="menu" href="vid.htm"> Videos</a> | <a class="menu" href="pic.htm">link here</a> | <a class="menu" href="article.htm"> link here</a> | <a class="menu" href="coach.htm">link here</a></font></div> <div id="content"> <center><font class="header">Michael 411 Moment</font><br><font class="date">content here</font> <p><font class="content">content here</font></p></center> <hr> <center><font class="header">content here</font><br> <font class="date">By MVTL Staff 2007-01-29</font> </center> <font class="subHeader">content here</font> <p><input type="checkbox" name="opt1" id="chk1"><font class="content">content here</font><br> <input type="checkbox" NAME="opt2" id="chk2"><font class="content">content here</font><br> <input type="checkbox" NAME="opt3" ID="chk3"><font class="content">content here</font><br> <input type="checkbox" NAME="opt4" ID="chk4"><font class="content">content here</font><br> <input type="checkbox" NAME="opt3" ID="chk5"><font class="content">content here</font><br> <p><input type="submit" value="Submit" ID="Submit1" NAME="Submit1"></p> </div> <div id="content2"><font class="subHeader">Fast Fact</font><br> <font class="content">content here</font> </div> </div> </center> </body> Thanks in advance! Hi All - Check out www.theSalve.org/flashVid.htm - Any ideas why the layout is different in Explorer and Firefox or even Safari and Opera for that matter. I realize I'm not using CSS. Don't know how to yet. Anything I can add to make it look the same on all browsers? Hi - Just wondering if anyone can help me figure out layout problems on the following page: www.marchgallery.com/comments.php I'm designing on a mac, and everything looks good in Safari. When I open up in Firefox, though, the comments are way below the intro text and the layout of the submission form is all messed up. I've never experienced this much difference in appearance between these two browsers. Maybe someone (nearly all of you) are viewing on PC? How does it look on that end? I'm really at a loss here. Any clues or suggestions would be much appreciated! Hey, I'm having issues with coding a website to be cross-compatible with Firefox and Internet Explorer (views fine in Firefox). I'm a BS artist when it comes to web design, and I could really use some help. The site is at this address: www.thepynebros.com It views correctly in Firefox, however, Internet Explorer distorts the font sizes, and will not wrap the CuteNews script around the picture of the trees on the index page. Can someone help me out? What am I doing wrong? Hey, I'm having a small problem with cross browser compatibility. In Internet Explorer my site looks exactly the way I want it to, no problems. However, in Firefox and Opera there is a space between the navigation and the content. I investigated my code and can't pinpoint the problem. Can you tell me what it is? So if you could just tell me the problem with no example, URL, or code that'd be great. I'm just kidding. The URL is TeamFlank.info. Here is some screen shots of it... IE: *click to enlarge* FF: *click to enlarge* Hello, quick question here. I'm working on this site: (replace @'s with a's) v@rd@burstyn.com/version2/ The previous designer left it in a bit of a mess, and now that I've made some changes that appear nicely in my Safari browser, the tables are hugely misaligned when I look at a number of the pages in Firefox (i.e., water.html or rites.html). Any advice as to how to get the tables back under control? I've tried for a while but nothing seems to fix it. Thanks very much in advance. Hello, I designed this website http://www.aitputd.org/conference and found that it has compatibility issues when viewed with different browsers. e.g. The 'font' of the menu changes (becomes bold) when viewed in IE and Chrome browsers as opposed to FF3.5 Also The title 'sponsors' on the left does not stay at the center in IE and FF3.5 but seems good in Chrome. Is there a solution to address these problems?? Any help is highly appreciated. Regards, NP Heya, I'm working on my new website design for http://nickerson.biz and all was going good. Came to the point where I check compatibility in all browsers. Figured everything would be fine since its 100% xhtml transitional valid. Turns out IE ****s it up real bad. Has 5 noticeable things that SHOULD NOT be happening. Site looks great in FF, but IE... I can't figure out whats going wrong. http://i42.tinypic.com/nntyly.png Ideas? View source to see coding, all seems fine. I have a nice little HTML5 demo that plays a video in a canvas that is not displayed. As part of the demo, I copy "frames" from the hidden canvas into a resized canvas that is displayed. My "custom" code to manipulate the video frames works fine. What doesn't work depends on the browser, but also the source of the video. If the source of the video is on the local disk along with the html file, it plays fine and it loops fine in both Safari, Chrome. Opera and Firefox. If the source of the video is on the web, either as a local (to the website) where the html file is stored, or if the html file is local but the video is on the web, then Safari works fine. Chrome displays the video ONE time and then stops. The loop does not work. Remember, same code, works fine if all data is local. Changing the source URL of the video to a website is the ONLY change. Opera and Firefox do not display anything except the box rectangle when the video source is on the web. Firefox gives the error: Quote: Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE) [nsIDOMCanvasRenderingContext2D.drawImage]" nsresult: "0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///Volumes/Olorin/sliceNdice/demow.html :: processFrame :: line 34" data: no] No errors show up in Opera, but no video is displayed.

Works if all files are local, shows box outline if all files are on the web: Code: <video id="sourcevid" autoplay loop=loop> <source src="BigBuckBunny_640x360.mp4" type="video/mp4"/> <source src="BigBuckBunny_640x360.ogv" type="video/ogg"/> </video> Fails: Code: <video id="sourcevid" autoplay loop=loop> <source src="http://catalystart.reststop.com/html5/BigBuckBunny_640x360.mp4" type="video/mp4"/> <source src="http://catalystart.reststop.com/html5/BigBuckBunny_640x360.ogv" type="video/ogg"/> </video> Note: Safari works in both cases, as long as all files and website are reachable. Chrome works to play the video ONCE, then stops. Firefox and Opera show an empty outline, but no video. I'm not a cross-browser expert. I will accept any and all possible solutions to try. In the meantime, I will continue to see if I can find the problem. Obviously, I want it to work from a website. Guys, Please help me. Following website www.blaizekitchens.co.uk Looks fine in Mozilla But goes horribly wrong in iexplorer Can't work out what the hell is causing this! Can someone please point me in the right direction Cheers Damon Howdy I want to have a short .mp3 play when my site's main page loads. So, my index.html has <bgsound src="file.mp3"> and it works fine in IE7/8. It does not work, however in FFox. So, I did some research, and apparently FFox requires different code. So, this is what I have: <bgsound src="file.mp3"> <object data="file.mp3" type="application/x-mplayer2" width="0" height="0"> <param name="filename" value="file.mp3"> <param name="autostart" value="1"> <param name="playcount" value="1"> </object> Works in FFox just great. But what happens in IE8, is the .mp3 plays 2x. It's not a loop, the same .mp3 starts again about 1 sec. after the first, and plays with the first, about 1 sec. behind. Some people might think it is a cool effect, but not what I have in mind. So what's happening here is that the bgsound src code and the object code are both being triggered in IE8. Is there some code I can put in that will force IE to only look at <bgsound src="file.mp3"> and not the object data? Thanks in advance. hello, I'm working on a site with a lengthy online application. When a user begins the application he is told to use the back and forward buttons on our form (not on his browser). We find that users still accidentally use the browser buttons and when they do a "Webpage has expired" error page comes up. This error page is not part of our site and is a dead end. I'm not a programmer so I don't know the specifics. I take it as a given that that browser buttons cannot function normally in our application, but I'd like to know if there is a way to get control of the error page that comes up when users do click their browser buttons. If we can show them a page reminding them not to use the browser buttons and put a link there to get them back to the application it would be a big help. Thanks You will actually have to look at the site: http://www.avenuemall.com/ I need to know how to create the gray lines around the tables. I hope that explains it well enough. Whenever I do tables there is 2 lines outlining the table (boxing it in) or I put "0" in the border and there is none. It looks like each table is outlined by gray, I need to know how to do that. I looked at the coding, but I just got more confused. Is there are a quick easy answer for this? Thank you, ~eDee Hello I thought my site was good to go until I viewed it on a pc. I took a look at it in IE on a pc and noticed outlines around the graphic nav. Do I need to add a bit of code somewhere?
