Title: website question
Post by: moose on February 17, 2006, 03:42:46 AM

Hey, why is it IE can't load my website right but Mozilla can?

Is it something on my hosts end? Half the images dont show correctly for some reason

My new site is http://www.103rd.net/ccrhl/ , or http://www.ccrhl.com once it resolves the forward from the old site

the old is http://www.103rd.net/hockey/

That would be because Firefox is Mozilla, straffo? :cool:

Here's what it looks like in my IE, moose. Everything renders fine to me, including new domain.

you might want to declare your doctype if you want it to be displayed similarly... try something like:

Afraid for what? :cool:  

Im not worried at all... websites I usually visit and need, works best with IE. I know they are safe and "surfing allover/everwhere" is not what Im doing...:aok

IE is very insecure, and there are security vulnerabilities in it that will allow websites to install their software without interacting with you, the user.  Your statement asserting your safety is the computer equivalent of saying "I never wear seatbelts because I only drive down to the store."

IE can be tweaked some to remove some vulnerabilities.

Interestingly enough, the number of Mozilla exploits have gone up lately. More users means more targets. It's not completely linear though, because Mozilla users tend to be more tech savvy than mom 'n pops with IE.

Oh and the "problem" on websites displaying incorrectly is NOT Mozilla most of the time. Rather it's web developers writing non DOM stuff, i.e IE specific code. Blame the coders there, not the browser.

Exactly. Mozilla uses a more strict DOM renderer... if it works in FF, it'll work in almost any browser (Except for that POS Opera...)

Don't be silly.  The difference is night and day.  If people got hit by lightning as often as people get infections from using IE, the death toll would be in the bubonic plague range.
