Wittman.C Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Of course IE is displaying the text color of my site in black rather than the grey that I have displaying nicely in Firefox & Chrome. Does anyone have any idea what might be happening here? Is there a known bug that I am missing perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Can you give a link to the online page? Or at least paste all the styles here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wittman.C Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 I can't post a link to the page, due to the site being in dev. The style is really long and big, and I have yet to narrow it down to a specific area. I was more or less looking for a known bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I can't think of an IE bug that would cause text to be a different color. If it affects the whole page, look carefully at the body style and then work down through the p tag styles, the h tag styles and containers checking for a style that overides a previous one or a spelling mistake. Sometimes one browser will guess what you want while another doesn't. Check that you have the # before the color code and ; afterwards. color: #eeeeee; Firefox has an add-on that shows all inherited styles for any part of your markup but I don't know the name of it.

Susie Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Also, I've had trouble before if I have the links in the wrong order. If you already knew this, I apologize for repeating it, but they should be in this order: Link Visited Focus Hover Active If you need more assistance with this, let us know.

Guest mrodrigues Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 I have the same problem sted above. If you can go to http://www.dulfar.com/default.asp, both using google chrome and Internet explorer. Using IE, you can see the difference between the background color of the top left image. In google chrome you can't!!! How can i solve this? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 The small image on the left is a png but the wider image is a jpg. It's possible that IE is processing them differently. Can you make them both jpg and check? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
