XHTML Layout - Browser testing please :)

The stylesheet and images aren't loading for me at all right now.

Nice to see you around, Phil

Sorry I hadn't changed the base href from my local machine. Does make a difference apparently

Yeh I'm still kicking around Megan, haven't visited as often as I'd like to simply as the business has gone proper nuts in the last year

Much better Looks good in Opera. But you know that already

Looks A OK in Firefox Here.. 1024x768

Howdy
You need to set a background colour

In IE6 at 800x600 the left nav has a chunk missing just before the long black image (which I guess will be an ad). If I jump up and down the page using the mouse wheel the gap will colour blue but there is still left with a big hole - about 2 inchs where as opera 8.51 and ff 1.5 are both good.
The font is also smaller in IE with a very small horziontal scroll bar at 800x600 (other browsers dont have it).

In IE the related links are clickable on the whole length but the section link is only clickable on the text, ff and opera is full length.
The global links (across top) and footer links look like they need to be centered.

nice clean layout

I assume you mean for the body? If so, done...

Bugger. That gap wasn't there before, where's that come from??

Yep I noticed that as well and pout it down to how the browsers interpret links. I suppose I could get round it by applying the link to the

I've added the resources directory front end now as well, still ok?

I can do Knoqueror on Linux tomorrow if you want.

Please. May as well go for the abstract as well as mainstream

If you want that abstract, I could always find a copy of Links

Hi openmind,

I had a look at your site on my Mac (OS X 10.4.4) on a 1024x768 display in the latest versions of Opera, Safari and Firefox, the site seemed to work fine, could see nothing that looked broken or in the wrong place.

Hope this is helpful.

Works fine in Konqueror 1280x1024 linux.

Slight problem in Opera now, ok maybe not, in opera and ff the tall black banner ad is hard on the right border (side blue one) but IE it is in the middle, everything else ok.

In IE however, the main content is now over lapping the side navigation. Using the title bar (top blue one in browser) as reference, the side navigation ends about under 'c' of resources (ff is under 'o') but the main content is ending under 'o' ('e' in ff).
and the gap still there.

Add this to your file (not your css file)

#sectionLinks a {
height: 1em;
float: left;
clear: both;
width: 100%;
}

#sectionLinks a {height: 1em;}

that will allow the whole div to be clickable in IE.
Not sure on the gap (hate fault finding in CSS), try take out the font size or end teh relatedLinks links div before starting the advert one

Cheers Busy. I'll have a look at those today...

Thanks also David and Paul, good to know

OK I think I've fixed the gap and overlap issue by fixing the width of the left nav and setting a margin-left on the main content.

Looking better now Busy?

Is good in IE now, good job

Woot! It's gets the Busy seal of approval

For any new members, that means quite a bit by the way

Cheers Busy...

thats what modrater do LOL!!!

A ok in Opera, FF and IE here... (800x600) and (1024x768)

No what I meant is that I've "known" Busy for the last 4 1/2 years through TWF and he can be a tough man to please simply though his attention to the smallest, but still important, things...

ah ok...
