Browser Shenanigans!

• blogging • viewed 688 times • 5 years ago

Hey Windows people! I need your help. It seems there is a problem with how dp.com displays on certain browsers. A concerned dp.com member sent in a screen capture of what she sees on her IE browser. Take a look at this! Scary!! At first I thought it was an Internet Explorer thing, so I fired up my Mac version of IE, which is totally outdated BTW… Here’s what I saw. Nice! I also took a peek with Firefox, Camino, and my everyday Safari. All looked good.

Weird, right? Now I only have access to a Mac. I need another opinion! So tell me, what do YOU see? Is it like example number one *shudder*, or more like example number two? I am having an awful time trouble shooting things I cannot see, yanno?

UPDATE: Apparenly it’s something with with IE 6. I had some special CSS for IE 6 that I have now removed… any difference? Anyone?

UPDATE: Okay kids. Yoshi found the cause! (Thanks Yoshi!)

I’m running Firefox on Win2K and I see #2. I remember back around christmas some friends of mine who used Macs were having problems viewing my site correctly and it turned out to be a problem with how type/fonts were rendered on different OS’s but I can’t say if that’s the case here.

Don’t you just hate that? I get my site all tweaked to perfection and it looks great in Firefox or Safari. I then boot up my PC, and an hour or two later when it’s finally loaded, I check it in Internet Explorer. It always looks like crap and I have to go back and fix it. I’ve had to disable a lot of functionality because it didn’t work in IE.

IE sucks.
