Hi,
Just downloaded this cms few days ago and installed default site with default theme. Through Firefox site is displayed great. But when I looked at it through the IE 6 I was shocked:( Site was displayed differently. In IE lines are different, some kind of dashed ones, not like in FF. Placement of various objects are different too. So my question is - is there any problems with this CMS and IE6 and how can I ressolve them, because this CMS is great and I want to use it, but I want it displayed exactly the same amongst various browsers.
Apache 2.x, Mysql 5.0.32, PHP 5.2.0, CMS 1.2
Thanks.

Re: cmsmadesimple display problems
What screen resolution?...
IE6 has problem with min/max width so there are a few lines in the head like JS to help it so it may seem to be off a little...
The dashed lines are from the hr that can be controlled by CSS, you can use your own or other templates, the dash shows diff. in IE6 and Firefox always has...

Re: cmsmadesimple display problems
Screen resolution was 1280x1024 or 1024x768.
Problems I noticed so far (used CSSMenu top + 2 columns template):
1. Header height was different in IE and FF, removed link from it for this time. Shall try to find cause of the problem.
2. Page width was slightly different too. Modified Java script to be able to see the same width.
3. In IE dotted lines was shown like dashed lines (IE bug) Needed to make modifications.
4. When ^Top link is shown footer height is different too. Needed to make adjustments.
5. Removed "Print This Page" link because it was shown differently too:( Shall try to find the cause of the problem in the future.
IMHO it would be very nice to include default templates with the cms which are shown correctly and exactly the same in all current and mostly used browsers. But in other words this CMS and it's simplicity are great.
BTW, tried to install Calendar module and it thrown some errors too:(

Re: cmsmadesimple display problems
The biggest diff. I see at this site between Ff & IE is that Ff uses part of the screen to show the scroll bar IE has a space on the side for scroll bar whether it has need for it or not, so you see page pushed in 15 > 20 pixels in Ff...

Re: cmsmadesimple display problems
I made FF to show toolbar too, as IE shows. There still were differences in height and after that operation:) Anyway I modified this default theme and now it shows correctly in both browsers.
As for java script which sets width in IE... I can't understand why in CSS width is set in em units, but in Javascript width is set in pixels:/ I modified this script to set width in em units and now width is displayed exactly the same in both browsers.
