Mozilla Firebird...so very frustrating!
I recently re-did my website, and the CSS doesn't parse AT ALL. It used to, the only thing I changed was the graphics and some extra divs...but now it's not parsing at all.
Could someone with Firebird or any other mozilla product (it happens in any of them) give me some advice? Please check this website Thanks! |

My guess would be it takes the torg.css over the thing.css. I would find a better work around for whatever IE flaw you are trying to work around.

Make the margins in the body zero. . . there is some horizontal scrolling action going on in IE.

what resolution are you in malus, I'm not noticing any scrolling problems in IE6 from 800x600 to 1240x1024?
Took out the torg reference, still nothing. It looks like it isn't even parsing the CSS file...I'm going to try writting the style directly into the site...maybe that will be what I have to do... Fixed the big blackness problem at the bottom, I think. BTW, Thanks for the help guys, and thanks for letting me know it looks fine on opera! |

The two top background images are piled one over the other as well as the text using Firebird 0.7. Only the bottom two images seem to appear correctly on the page (when based on the results under IE 6).

Euh... I've tested under 1280x1024 as well. Is that a valid answer? or Was that a question? Me lost.

You mean you changed torg.css to thing.css, right? You didn't remove the link tag, did you?

okay, ironically...fixed mozilla (silly me, forgot a closing bracket) and now i'm trying to fix the top and bottom images along with fixing the left and right menus into position (so only the content div scrolls...looks neato in mozilla)...but IE took a dump on that.
As for the scrolling, I see it in mozilla, but not IE at any resolution, I did fix the bottom so it's always at the bottom, but I want it to be static too...so I just took the page offline temporarily. Does anyone know a good solution for fixing positioned elements in IE6? My main problem is the z stacking isn't occuring like it is in mozilla, very, very odd. As soon as I add a zstack value IE craps up, but mozilla runs great. Remove, IE works great, mozilla doesn't display right. ARGH! This was all so simple in my head! |

Might I suggest you pass your website under the W3C.org HTML Validator. It will be very annoying to see so many errors at first when you use this web app (most are just too strict use of "good coding" rules), but I comes in handy when you have a real annoying bug, like the one you have. Hopefully it might help u out ![]() Oh I really like the new page layout " just wait... ". It's so geeky (jk)MALUS : Yes... your PC is V-E-R-Y special

Uhhhhh. . . post the code. It's impossible to troubleshoot code if no one can see it.

sorry guys, I'm a dolt.
IE doesn't support fixed and treats it as "static" which blows, but I worked around it using 'body>#blork {position:fixed;}' style cheats. That way, mozilla will see the fixed and treat it the way I want (good) and IE will fall back on it's stupid ass and use STUPID absolute positioning (bad). I neve thought I'd see the day where a Mozilla based browser made me happy...dear God, next I'll be an espresso junkie! Sorry about the non-codingness. It's back, I need a miracle way to force the bottom...to the bottom. Stupid IE stupid letting me down! |

Another note.
It's about the corner images. It seems as if the color black (yep #000000) isn't really black black, but semi-black ( #010101 ). So us softer screen dudes can see the edges of the images. Nothing major, just a simple thing. Oh and just to say that your sites really looks sweet with Firebird 0.7 @ 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 (the fonts are a bit small, but thats normal at high resolutions). I really dig the layout mate. I looks sharp!

Thanks man, it needed a makeover desperately!
BTW, holy shit, I had to crank my brightness (on a trinitron!) to 90% to see that, but you're damn right, and it shall be rectified momentarily. Again, guys, thanks! |

Not sure why exactly, but earlier today while I was looking around on the board and found a link to your site, upon clicking one of the links my comp froze up. Min or two later, it recovers with at least 30 IE6 windows opened, with more trying to. Not sure what happened, or if it got into a loop, but it just kept opening until I powered down the comp. Browser error with IE(6)?

hmm on IE6 I see a vertical scroll bar at 1024x768 and in Mozilla Firebird 0.7 and Mozilla Nigthtly Build 9/17/03 I see Quotation mark's ' " ' before and after the side bars, but otherwise Nice page. I wonder if Malus meant Vertical (up and down) instead of Horizontal (left and right).

Hmm...that is strange, I dunno. Server could have been having some weird problems.
Well, I've optimised the site for 800x600 to 1280x1024 in IE5-6 (although, I took out some of the patches for IE5, but may not need them anyway). Mozilla should work at any resolution now, and will look better than IE6 until it supports fixed positioning. Sigh...images were corrected...css was tightened up...I think I'm pretty much done then. I will desperately try to find a way to make my damn bottom stay at the true bottom without image filler hacks...bah...I'm still looking for a way to get those two bottom images out of dreaded tables...but I'm tired and so very, very cold... Anyway, that should do it for me tonite...time to retire to my bedchamber. Fare thee well, and thanks everyone for the help and support! I appreciate that at least 5 people took interest in my isolated corner of the internet and you guys really helped point out stuff that I hadn't even checked for, I'm in thy debt!Until next time... P.S. I don't know what the hell those quotes are doing there either! And the scrolling is inevitable in IE6...only way to keep the bottom more or less aligned to the bottom of the browser at higher resolutions...sigh... |

{position: absolute; bottom: 0px; left 0px;}
{position: absolute; bottom: 0px; right: 0px;} Wouldn't that position your two images on the bottom? And when I said horizontal scroll, I meant it. It definitely horizontal scrolled in IE. Unfortuneately, I didn't take a screenshot to illustrate the effect. Now it seems to be working properly (well, horizontal scroll-wise at least).

See, that's the problem, technically it *should* align them with the bottom (and does in Mozilla) but with absolute positioning in IE6 it just poops them to the bottom of the browser window, not the page...causing them to be in the middle of longer pages...I'll fart around a bit later tonight and try and fix it, yeah, the scrolling was due to a bad position, should be fixed.

The scrolling did exist! Take that, naysayers!
![]() IE does a lot of things wrong. There is probably a way around it, but I couldn't tell you unless I knew your design like the back of my hand.
