Hi everybody,

 

Normally, this page of my site looks Ok on firefox, safari, chrome, etc.:

but, on IE8 there is a big white space between the first

and the second one.

 

This is the code of the div:

Does someone know how to fix this?

At this point, there is very little point doing testing in IE8 -- the browser hasn't been finalized yet and still has bugs, so it may change in the final version. I'd suggest sticking with IE6/IE7, and then go back and optimize if necessary for IE8 once it is officially released.

Good point,

 

Thanks

I agree. IE8 ruins half the things I work on. I pay it no mind...

If you think that viewers may be using IE8 beta 2 and seeing something you don't want them to see, add this immediately after the

section tag:-

 

 

for XHTML (without the closing / before > if HTML) which makes IE8 work as IE7. It must be immediately after the

tag, not lower down the head section.

 

There are thousands of problems with IE8 at present and I don't want viewers of my sites to use it. It doesn't display some drop down menus correctly and even stops displaying half way down a page sometimes until you refresh. It also doesn't make anchors work if the anchor code is empty. The Opacity attribute isn't supported; only the IE filter.

Thanks for your answer.

I kind of solved the problem. The main idea was to have some text and (3 paragraphs) a picture floated to the right, so at first, I put the

tags and the tag, then I floated the to the right. It worked perfectly on Firefox, etc., but it wasn't working on IE8. So, I finally decided to wrap both tags with two divs, one for the text, one for the image, and floated them.

Problem solved:
