Guest Cashster09 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) I have now switched doctypes and started changing my pages over and my rightside greyish bg color is not showing up in IE7.... In IE 6, FF 2, 3 and chrome it works fine, but my client has IE 7 and I told him to look at it today... my css code is #container { margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: left; width: 820px; background: #FFFFFF url( bg.jpg?z=16168 ) repeat-y; background-position: 0px 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } the bg.jpg is the image for the greyish background the funny thing is, that was working on friday....and i never changed that at all or touched it! help anyone?

Wickham Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 The gray background does show in my IE7 for the right panel under Contact Us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cashster09 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 is it only under the contact us tab or every page? www.we bdry cleaners.com thanks for checking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corinne Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 It looks the same on all pages for the color in IE 7. Is it a very light grey almost white ? that is what I see. It is the same in FF also. Corinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cashster09 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) ok great.....then why on my secretary's computer with IE 7 it's basically white? The color has disappeared when on friday it was just as the pic i posted....?

Corinne Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Well to me the screen capture does look kinda white to me. I am not sure but could it be the computer, colors can look slightly different on different computers. Sorry if I am confusining you. But the color I see on IE is the same as the screen capture you linked to. Corinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cashster09 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) thanks corrine.... I now made the side darker gray.... It should be a little better and viewable a little bit more on your puter....Yours was probably like my sec's in that it was very faint.....Now at least it shows up a little more... the grey looks like the color on this site to the left...

Guest Cashster09 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) Minor issue in IE7 with the articles page. I have a newspaper background that is inside a table, but the only browser its not showing up in is IE7. Is there a quirk i'm not aware of for this browser? I dont have any text in the table yet but the background shows up on other browsers. here is my css code for the table td.newspaper { background-image: url('newsback.jpg'); background-repeat: repeat; padding-top: 5px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 15px; padding-right: 15px; text-align: justify; font-family: trebuchet MS; vertical-align: top; } html code is text will go here http://www.web drycleaners.com/webdrycleanersarticles.html thanks in advance Edited April 27, 2009 by Cashster09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 It shows in my IE7. Use http://browsershots.org/ or netrenderer to see how a page looks in different browsers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cashster09 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 i wonder why my sec's computer it doesnt show up and it looks just plain white...pretty annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 It could be a cache problem (unfortunately you can't tell a viewer to clear their cache very easily) or a slow download (is it a large image file size in KB?) or perhaps she has a problem with her computer (old or infected or not much spare space).

Guest Cashster09 Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 no i actually refreshed the page for her but not sure why the rightside looked basically white and the articles page didnt show the newspaper bg... no its a very small file... I guess i shouldnt worry about it....I just hope my clients IE 7 on his puter looks like everyone elses instead of my sec's...lol By the way, netrenderer is awesome...thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
