Formatting not uniform across browswers

  • The majority of pages built with the site have used the default format. There are a couple of pages that we needed to fit the full width of the screen so we used the elementor canvas template. All but one of those pages (https://www.cddne.com/fabric-doors/) the formatting is uniform on all browswers, but for some reason the search button in the “side bar” (it’s a sidebar created from scratch for that particular page, not from our theme) and the buttons don’t all line up (spec sheet/quote/site visit).

    Is there anything that can be done to make sure that the formatting is uniform across the board? I should mention that I used chrome when building the site.

    I’m not an Elementor support person, but I was curious about the issue, so I took a look at your page using various browsers.
    Frankly, I don’t see how you can get everything to line up unless the content for each product is of the same height. You could force the issue by using a different section for each part (product details, warranty, options, etc.), but then the responsive presentation on a smartphone would be completely wrong.
    One possible solution is to include two separate page structures, one that suits a narrow screen and one that suits a wide screen. You hide the bits that you don’t want to display, depending on the viewport width.
    Regarding differences among browsers, it is true that the page in IE11 has a lot of unacceptable issues. In Firefox and in Opera, it looks pretty much the same to me. With Chrome on a smartphone, the page looks pretty good.

    Thanks for the feedback. It’s weird because the formatting actually shows up funky for that page on another widescreen monitor (we gave a presentation of the site yesterday to the company and for some reason this one page showed up weird). I need to ask my boss to ask what browser he was using, but my guess was it was probably IE because when I open that page on my computer with IE, the formatting is a little funky (not as bad as it was for our presentation). It’s just one page though, so I’m not going to lose sleep over it, I just wasn’t sure if there was a simple fix for this. Based on some digging I did online, it seems to be a common unsolved problem across the board when it comes to uniform formatting between browsers.
