Re: Rendering Issue on IE6-7

Re: Rendering Issue on IE6-7

Doesn't look like this was the right fix.  I moved the script loading up above the rest of the JS and removed the "name" attribute from the left content DIV.  Still no dice. This problem can be replicated in IE8 by turning ON the "compatibility view" (the broken page icon in the ...

Re: Disabling/Dealing With Extra-Large Fonts

I use EM for all text.  The site scales fine, but this particualr problem isn't a zooming issue...it's that the user has an "XL Font" style enabled (in Windows, change the visual style from Aero to "XL -----"). This is an interesting problem that I haven't encountered before, and...

Disabling/Dealing With Extra-Large Fonts

Hey Guys, I have an interesting question:  How do you deal with clients that have 'extra-large fonts' enabled on their machines?  I have a client that is ~55 years of age, and uses the XL font styles on Windows.  This site ( http://pineridgesportingclays.com ) is solid in every browser (and I believ...

Re: Broken When Using Compatibility View in IE8

Validated.  Still didn't fix my problem...still works fine w/o compatibility mode in IE8, completely breaks w/ compatibility mode on. Note that I also validated my CSS.  It checked out on the first go. On another note, I thought that it might be an ordering issue, since it seemed to be 'hiding' some...

Re: Working with HTML/CSS...

I just wanted to point out that Opera has had a pretty comprehensive code inspector installed since approx. v9.1.  To access it, simply go to the 'developer tools' menu and click on Opera Dragonfly (http://www.opera.com/dragonfly/).
