border collapse in FF but ok in IE 6 and 7

2 New Member
Hi all,

I am currently working on a website and until recently everything was working fine on both IE 6, IE7 and Firefox V. 2.0.0.11

However, when i changed the footer heading to "Design by WebFactory365.c om" text and colour at the bottom of the page, everything was fine in IE6 and IE7, but in FF i lost all my borders around the main menu nav bar, login page and e-shop. (It´s as if all the borders and tables that can be seen in IE6 have collapsed) I realise it could be a IE6 or IE7 issue i need to address, as FF, i believe is considered more reliable..

The last day or so, I have tried to upload the original file and played around with border widths etc but to no avail. It still looks bad in Firefox.

Any help in this matter would be most appreciated.

The site is www.webfactory3 65.com

Thanks

Richard

Yes, the problem is IE. Never use IE as your test browser and never use IE as an example of how things should work.

You are using the xml declaration on the first line. Only modern browsers know what to do with this while IE goes into quirks mode. Remove this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

Then validate your html for your list of 56 errors there. Then validate your css for the error listed there. Test your site in Firefox first. Then see if IE manages to display your proper markup correctly.

This works fine in Opera and IE, but in Firefox 1.0 there seems to be a problem. With border-collapse set to collapse, it indents the table 1px to the left. Any ideas how to resolve this without any browser specific hacks? <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">...

Hi, I have example html below which contains a couple of hidden divs. However, some of the table borders within these hidden divs are actually displayed when they should not be. In my example, I have comments indicating that if I remove the 'border-collapse' attribute for two of the tables within the hidden divs, my problem is fixed.

Hi I need a datagrid on a page, but it is rendered with the style "border-collapse:collapse;". I do not need this style. It interferes with the settings in my CSS file. I tried to supress it with this code (1 line of code): DataGrid1.ControlStyle.Reset(); which works.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
