FF & IE issue

Hey guys,

I have an issue with how something is appearing in IE as compared to FF. I have attached a pic so you can see what I mean. It is in the post new thread. Is there something I can add script wise to make FF look the same as IE as right now its all squished.

Thank you for any help with this :)

Have you tried changing your FF font size? It can mess up pages if you've accidentally changed it.

The font is the same in both FF & IE, nothing has changed in that regard. I think it's more a spacing issue. I just don't know how to fix it or even if I can fix it. Thank you for responding though, much appreciated :)

Now when I'm looking at it, I see I have some of those issues too. Well, maybe the site is mostly designed for IE then. :(

hmmmmm. My forums look the same in both IE and FF. Now if you go to my place on MySpace, looks great in FF, but horrible in IE.

My greatest desire (well, almost) is that one day all these browsers would render a page/site the same way!

That's a nice thumbnail and we could talk about the finer points of rendering across browser all day. But, that won't answer your question.

To answer the question, we need to see the CSS and HTML for that block.

LOL sorry Noppid. I posted the pic because the code for that block in the New Thread template doesn't include 'Check if already posted' or 'Post Anonymously'. See below. Where do I find the CSS for it? This is where I feel dumb :confused: I only know where the main CSS is, under All Style Options.

I think the 2 should be a 4 as you are adding a cell in the next row with thread prefix.

Tried changing to a 4 Dave and there is no difference to how it appears in FF.

I just tried your forum. I am the user named Chris. :D

Everything displayed fine in Firefox for me. You might want to check to see if the latest version of Firefox is being used.

Ditto. Your forum displays just fine for me as well.

hmmmmmm interesting, but that is great that it is indeed displaying correctly. I have only resently updated FF too *scratches head*

Hey Chris, thank you hun. You tipped the forums to 500 members lol I was so excited. In the not too distant future I need to commission you to do a new logo for me. The one I did is not classy enough and I had a look at some of your work yesterday, and I love it.

Thanks Chris and Peggy for taking a peek and letting me know. I feel better about it now and can sleep tonight without thinking about the prob. I hate that hahahaha
