First Website: Need to adapt site to I.E

Discussion in 'HTML & Website Design' started by Sonyboy, Mar 18, 2005.

    Ok,
    Now this is my first site.
    I designed the site but the problem is that it only works on Firebird.
    It really gets messed up when viewed in Internet Explorer which like 90% of the people online use.
    :rolleyes:
    So is it possible to get some sort of HTML Code i can place within the site so its more compatible?

    http://freewebs.com/mnaker

    Its not supposed to be a great designed site,
    After all it is my first and it should be good enough for coursework submittal.
    :)
    But I still want it to be viewable for Internet Explorer, As thats what I use to view it as school.

    Please help.

    Well your background is repeating so that on a 1024 monitor, the cell that contains "Welcome to Retro-Gamer.cjb.net" . You might consider using a table in a absolute width instead o 100%

    How would I go abouts doing that on Dreamweaver?
    Wouldnt that only solve one problem?
    :-/
    I really dont know, But on Firebird it does look perfect.
    I was hoping for some sort of HTML generator that would convert my HTML so it would be openly compatible.
    :(

    Right click on the table - somewhere you should see table properties.

    I don't use Firebird - but maybe Firebird is not repeating (tiling) the background (like a backgound should be)?

    I just started DW MX. Took me a little time to find it - do you know HTML code?

    Anyway - on mine there was a properties link at the very bottom. And then right above that - the table tag. When I hit the table tag I got to see the tables properties
