FireFox Looks like… IE Looks like

  • hello there,

    If i view my site on Firefox
    https://www.alibutt.com

    it looks nice and clean.

    if i view it on IE6 . …… its looks misaligned … unless i expand the window.
    I know that IE does not use proper standards etc… but can anyone advise what needs to be changed to make them show the site more or less the same?

    Thanks in advance.
    Ali

  • I suspect that it’s due to the following line in your post:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system

    Try adding the following line to your style.css:
    .entrybody p {
    margin-top:8px;
    margin-bottom:16px;
    overflow:hidden;
    }

    Hi ,

    I have tried

    .entrybody p {
    margin-top:8px;
    margin-bottom:16px;
    overflow: hidden;
    }

    and
    .entrybody p {
    margin-top:8px;
    margin-bottom:16px;
    overflow:hidden; <——- no space
    }

    but it makes no difference. i have even hid the post that you mentioned ??

    Its just on IE that the header looks wrong ??
    Any ideas?

    Can you do a force refresh (CTRL + F5) to make sure you’re not caching the css file? It appears fine on my machine.

    It does look fine on higher resolutions. 800* shows the header to match (possibly) the percentage set for the main or content, which leaves whitespace on the right. I’m sorry I can’t help more, but I would guess it’s related to one of those percentages.

    Hi,

    I have forced a refresh but the problem remains.
    If the window is full screen then the header and footer look fine.

    its just when you start making the window narrower(is that a word?!) that the header and footer start looking funny (only on IE). .. its looks perfect on Firefox, whatever the width !

    This is the stylesheet.
