Creating web sites and browsers
« on: June 15, 2006, 08:14:48 AM »
And you thought you had heard the last of me lol

I've noticed after finishing my site that when i look at it through IE it's out of kilter, but when i use Firefox it's okay.

Any way to overcome this ppls?

not really.

Myspace is a prime example of it.

It's to do with differing translative abilities within the browser.

One thing u can try is,as u build ure site,keep previewing it in both browsers (ie and FF)

Yep, they're in tables.   I might do some more tweaking tonight though and see if that helps.

Question:  Can you change the left hand margin within a page just for a certain section?  Like, i put in a table to centre a single word, and the table started on the left hand side and had to extend it to the right side just to centre a four letter word lol - the "Home" link.  The same with the captions under the photos - i just put a single line table there as well, and moved the right margin in and out until i found the centre in page preview.  This is where it's out in Explorer with the captions under the pics not centred.

You can move the right margin around, but you can't the left.

Yeah, i've got multiple tables.  I'll work it out somehow.  The putz is doing okay so far lol

Do you use Dreamweaver, Ox?  Having trouble with copying and pasting text - won't let me.  Won't let me undo when i've done something wrong etc etc etc.  Is running crazy at the moment.

You know those pics i've got down the side.  Well, i thought i'd just do one and copy and insert the rest with just pasting.  Wouldn't let me, so had to insert every effing pic lol

Internet Explorer does some weird overflow with width. Treats 100% as 108%  ???.

Try putting this inside your "body" tag. I think it works.

Code: [Select]
<body ... width:expression(document.body.clientWidth > 800? "800px": "auto" ) >

The code goes "is the body wider then 800 pixels? if so, set the width to 800 pixels, otherwise, just let it size itself (auto)".

Sorry for annoying you ppls - I do try and find out beforehand, but keep hitting brick walls.
But putting on a board helps others as well who were thinking of doing stuff like this.
Err, gonna start another one on the weekend lol
