| | Hi again!
Recently I noticed that IE and FireFox display table layouts in different ways. It is a headache for web designer to add some compatibility for the issue.
Currently I have some problems using tables in my website. For example FireFox adds 3-4 pixels to my table width where IE display is clean.
I use some CSS mixed with HTML normal tables and want to customize my PmWiki theme to integrate it with the rest of my website.
I appreciate any help.
Thank you. |

Could you provide us with a link to a page showing the template, or maybe the code?

Firefox has default settings for tables, like border, padding, etc, that other browsers don't or may not have. You can see the same thing when comparing Opera and Firefox concerning tables. If you want them removed, then use the border, cellpadding and cellspacing attributes.

Well, for one, you shouldn't be using table layouts at all. Sure it's easy, but in the end it makes your code very very messy.

Thank you for your kind guidelines. Yes, the code with tables looks indeed messy! But as I described in my earlier posts - hiding somewhere in this major trap! - I use Qupis and to install a CMS by hand is a total torture there so I had no chance to test another possibility at all. Besides I am a newbie in web design and I appreciate everybody who teaches something to me!! With that out of the way, finally I could fix the tables using margins and cell paddings, even I could define opacity in my menues in both FF and IE, by manipulating the CSS main files.  Thank you all for taking care of my question. Regards, Cyrus

Don't go around telling other people what code they should use. You just can't render code useless year after year. It effects a lot of websites. MANY people still use tables and the most popular browsers should take that into consideration -- for business reasons -- instead of taking a condescending elitist view.
What POINT would someone have to post something like "you shouldn't be using tables"? How does that help this questioner?

IE(pre8.0)/AOL Browsers Don
Firefox And Ie: Table Layouts Look Different In Us!
My site looks fine in Safari, Firefox, Opera, and even IE 8.0, but looks like the dog's breakfast in I.E. 6 and 7 and on the AOL Browser, which I understand is IE-based. Basically what's happening is that the content/story sections of the site are riding UP in IE, covering portions of the masthead and most of the navigation bar.
I've filled with the padding and margins to no avail. I really need help (in the "for dummies" mode -- I'm pretty new to all this!) because much as I'd like to tell everyone to just use Firefox or upgrade their IE, as a practical matter, most folks use the browser in which this is not working, rather than the ones that do.

Graphic bump in IE 8. Any help?
Firefox And Ie: Table Layouts Look Different In Us!
I'm a novice web developer using tabled layouts and CSS.
See this page: http://www.Caramelicious.Net
In IE 8 there are some weird miss-alignment of the rollover graphics in the main navigation which makes the inside border and graphics look missaligned verically. This page looks fine in Firefox, etc.
There is a form on the 'view cart' button that I thought was causing the bumping, so I created a class for 'form' with 0 padding, 0 border, 0 margin. This fixed the bump in Firefox, but not in IE. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Displaying problems with IE
Firefox And Ie: Table Layouts Look Different In Us!
I don't know what to do.I've created web site for Firefox, but when I see it in IE it's really messy.
The problem is that the table from template has totally different W-sizes for cells.And cells are justified from bottom to top and it shouldn't be like that:(. The rows should be concentrated at the top of left column...It has to present some kind of meny .
Does anybody know how to fix it? Please...:))))
