Hi! This is my first site using css and i´ve noticed that IE doesn´t show all the css properties right. What is the problem? I can´t figure it out. So if u have any idea that could help, i would appreciate hints solving it out. Here is a link to a sample page. Please try it with FF and IE and u see the problem i mean. Thanks in advance. HDaddy http://koti.mbnet.fi/thinner/ytn/njohtokunta.html So what i ment was that the title of the person text is showing right "reddish" in FF and wrong "black" in IE. I want to know what is causing the difference in IE...so why is it wrong in IE?
Different standards. You should develop in FF and the tweak it for IE, you can only control scrollbars with CSS in IE for instance. IE 5 and IE 6 display differently too. Always try and keep height and width to auto, sometimes you need to set padding and margins to 0 instead of just blanks
There is no element <vuosi>. Firefox treats it as a default inline element, as part of its xhtml parser, and assumes you've properly extended the DTD. A trip to the W3 validator would have caught this. That appears to be semantically a definition list, <dl>. Mark it up as such, and apply the styles to the <dt>s and <dd>s. cheers, gary
Thanks for the help gary. I tried it but i didnt quite get it to work...a bit tired...will try it tomorrow again when not so tired.
This doesn't always help solving layout differences between IE and FF. Workarounds is what are needed in most cases.
