Corinne Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thank you in advance for all the help you offer to everyone! I have a navigation bar and horizontal menu. In firefox the text goes down below my content (I can see it sticking up a little) in IE it is fine. My CSS did validate with no errors. I am new at this a can not figure out what I am doing wrong:( Thank you for any help you can give. Corinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 We'll need a link to the site if we are going to look at this -- it will depend on what code and images you are using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSW Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 ... But the basic rule is "Firefox shows you what you coded... IE shows you what you want to see." If it is wrong in Firefox, then you coded it wrong. Correct it so it looks right... Then worry about IE. When IE8 is released it should show things the way Firefox does.

jlhaslip Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 ... When IE8 is released it should show things the way Firefox does. Closer, but they will likely be lagging behind on CSS2.1 and CSS3 still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corinne Posted February 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks for responding, here is the css if that would help. body { margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: center; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; background-image: url(gradient93679002.png); background-repeat: repeat-x; background-color: #6C0B00; } #wrapper { position: relative; text-align: left; width: 900px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; } #header { height: 250px; width: 900px; border-bottom: 2px solid #000000; padding: 10px 0px 0px 0px; } #navigation { float:left; width: 900px; height: 20px; background-color: #000000; padding: 3px 0px 4px 0px; } #navigation ul { list-style: none; text-align: right; font: small-caps 16px verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: .5em; } #navigation li { display: inline; } #navigation a:link, #navigation a:visited { padding: 0.1em 0.8em 0.1em 0.8em; background-color: #000000; text-decoration: none; color: #FFFFFF; } #navigation li a:hover { background-color: #510000; color: #FFFFFF; } #leftcolumn { float: left; Color: #000000; background: #FFFFFF; height: 460px; width: 200px; } #content { float: right; display: inline; height: 460px; width: 700px; background: #FFFFFF; } #footer { clear: both; width: 900px; height:30px; background-color: #6C0B00; color: #FFE7C4; padding: 5px 0px 10px 1px; font-size: 10px; } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Ideally, post a link to the site - if that's not possible, we need all of it - HTML and CSS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corinne Posted February 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Thank you Thelma, My mom just went into the hospital so I will be side tracked for a bit. But I wanted to thank everyone who read my post and tried to help. I will post when things get back to normal (that will never happen). Thanks again, Corinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
