Header adn Menu strange in IE not FIREFOX or MAC

Post by yorgi63 »

Hi all,

Doing a site for a friend of mine. Everything was going well till someone looked at it in IE rather than Firefox and oh boy.

Looks really wrong. I had run into this before and I just set the page width to the exact size for instance 728px in the style sheet like so:

/*****************
basic layout
*****************/
body {
  background: url(/images/back.jpg);
  color: #000;
  margin:0em; /* gives some air for the pagewrapper */
}

/* center wrapper, min max width */
div#pagewrapper {
  border: 0px solid black;
  margin: 0px auto;    /* this centers wrapper */
  top-margin: -1px auto;
  background: #000000;
  color:#cccc99;
  width: 728px;
}

Can anyone tell what the heck I did wrong or am doing wrong?

Oh and I am using the latest version of CMSMS.

Thanks!!
Yorgi

Well first of all you have errors in your page... This might not fix your problem, though:

Look in the template for this and remove, then maybe we can talk about the rest...

=b){nw=b+"px";}if(w



#pagewrapper {width:expression(P7_MinMaxW(720,950));}
#container {height: 1%;}

Thanks for all the info! I checked the errors and it seems to be confined to the FLASH Header which I have looked at. There are some spacing issues the just up but that is not the main issue. I removed the following as suggested. See below but acording to: http://browsershots.org/ it still doesn't work right.

Any help would be appreciated. Like I said I had run into this before and set the width in the CSS file.

Thank YOU all,

George
