Website help...

Post by Pwolf » Mon Dec 22, 2008 11:09 pm

I'm in the process of recoding my website and I'm moving away from tables... tables made it easy cause my current site looks fine in all browsers but this CSS thing is causing some stupid little issues... So far it looks fine in IE7 but when I move to firefox its off...

Any of you who have experience with this mind giving me some advice?

what I did to get around IE and its delusions of grandeur (read: programmer's decision that IE was important enough to ignore/make their own web standards)
was to make separate CSS files.
One for IE
One for pretty much everything else |:

as of IE7, the following trick still worked (taken from my site's code)

Code: Select all

<!--[if IE]><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie.css" /><![endif]-->
<!--[if !IE]>--><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /><!--<![endif]-->

Yeah, what kariudo said. Thanks to IE not following web standards you either have to use old html tricks (such as tables) or create separate style sheets for IE, then tweak those sheets until they look the way you want them to.

Got it working now with a single .css file. haven't tested it with opera or older versions of IE though.
