php nuke theme problem
« on: August 04, 2007, 08:45:29 PM »
I'm working on a php site and i took an old theme i made for some band website i made a few years back. i saw that the theme displayed different in IE, Firefox, AND Safari! Everything was right in IE, there was some weird blue bg in firefox and the borders were messed up in the tables, and in Safari certain text was the wrong color. Anyone have any clue how this happens and how to fix it?

You're going to have to fix the CSS script. IE/Opera are pretty much lax in the coding, and FF is the most CSS-compliant. My suggestion is to always start coding for FF and then editting the code for IE/Opera. Opera/FF have their own help files for CSS if you get lost. :)

Many of these types of problems can be corrected by running the css file through a validator ( http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ ) and fixing the errors. Once all the errors/warnings are addresses, it *should* display properly in all browsers.
