Cannot edit pages using Firefox or Safari

[dorlow]

Here's the website I'm refering to... http://www.lakeviewschools.net. A principal just came to me a few days ago and said he can't edit the website's pages on his Mac. I tried pulling up the website's admin piece on my PC using both Firefox and Safari and noticed I have the same issue. All the text is in the center in about a 1" wide column with tons of white space on both sides. I can edit the page just fine in IE. The pages view just fine in all browsers.

Here's a good example. I'm attaching an image of what it looks like when we're trying to edit this website...

I would turn off the editor to see what the HTML tells you...

It looks to me like there is some CSS that is telling it to be XXpx from the left...

Here's the HTML for the page above...

Code: Select all

It doesn't make sense there's HTML that's messing up the way it only works in Firefox and Safari, because the websites view just fine in all browsers when just browsing to them by going to http://www.lakeviewschools.net/lakeview-elementary-3-5/

They just only don't view correctly when using Firefox or Safari using the WYSIWYG editor within the CMSMS editor.

Before the developer passed away, he was working for our company and he upgraded the CMSMS software on the server. I don't know if that has something to do with it. He was attempting to fix an issue where changes wouldn't take effect without submitting the changes. I couldn't apply the changes without backing out everytime, so he upgraded the software. That's the only thing I can think that has lead to this problem.

Try removing the <div> and </div> from that to see, it almost looks like they added some CSS to the editor itself in it's admin...

I don't think removing the <div> will fix it. This HTML is just an example. We have hundreds of pages in the site and all of them are doing it. I don't want to start opening every page and removing <div> </div> from every webpage on our whole site. I'm sure I'll have the website screwed up quickly. It has to be something global in the global template, or an incompatibility in the version of CMS we're running.
