Title: HTML coders
Post by: Spikes on March 12, 2009, 05:03:51 PM
Hey all, working on a design here, can't figure out why the template is so screwed up in IE, but it's fine in every other browser. I know Ie sucks and all, but if I'm to get this sale I need it to work fine. It may be just an extra </div> for all I know. If someone could check this out for me it'd be great.

Are you using dream weaver?? I know that some code doesnt work in IE but in Mozilla, safari and so forth, there are things in each web browser that will cause it not to work, colors and things like that could be different cause of it

when i open it in IE and the mozilla i see the diffrence, but again from what i was taught it can react differently in different web browsers. I am checkin out his code ATM also, i will post if i find anything


im not finding anything wrong in your code spike, so its most likely the browser not your code

Glancing over it here at work, the only thing that looks odd in the index.html file is that a little of the formating is off at line 46 and 50 that could be cleaned up a little.  99.9% chance that's not it since it seems only cosmetic (so it won't actually change anything if fixed) but with IE, who knows, it's finicy as hell.

Same here man, I even ran it through Dreamweaver and Expressions code checkers.  There are others, but I don't have them here on this comp. 

Im not sure on this.  If you figure it out please let me know, as I am curious now.

Well, when I first downloaded the template it worked fine in IE, so my editing must have screwed something up somewhere.

Edit: The two errors I'm finding is 1.) the white splotch by the nav bar on the right and 2.) The entire area where there is text seems to be...the tables are all screwed up.

Edit edit: No I am just using Notepad++.

ok thats odd, see this

      <li class="m1"><a href="index.html" class="act">Home[/url]</li>

i cannot find its corresponding class for this or any of your other links in the CSS page, normally it will have something like

.m1
background-color:#FFFFFFF


something along the lines of that, i found the float hover and so forth, but i cannot find this one, so you may have to contact the people you got it from

I don't think the m1 matters whatsoever, don't know why the designer put them in there.

well, again not sure then, i have looked through your entire CSS and HTML code, and cant find anything that would do that, so

and the reason the "m1" matters is because that links that page to the CSS class, which will make the page how you want it to, or that areas background and so forth

I ran the page in IE and I didn't see anything wrong, the links worked perfectly. Of course, that could be because I'm running IE version 6.something...


edit: Curses, too slow!

Well, it wasnt the links that were screwed up, it was stuff on Index, About, and Services that was, below the links area.

Don't you luv HTML...

Glad you made this thread though spikes, it gave me a chance to remember what I know of HTML before I completely forget it.
