CSS to Match in IE and Mozilla

2 New Member
I recently had someone create a new blog format/header/page for my blog powered by TypePad. It's form is in CSS. It looks great in IE, but it looks awful (and really tiny) in Mozilla. Is there a way I can get it to look the same in BOTH browsers? My viewers are about 50/50 between IE and Mozilla.

My blog address is www.papercrafti nwitherica.com.

Thank you!

The person who created your page made an amateur's mistake of using IE as their reference browser. Never, ever trust IE to do anything right. While it may be showing what you want, Firefox is showing what was written. IE is 12 years behind all other browsers in modern methods and practices. Always, always use a modern browser (anything but IE) when creating web sites.

Your site has 467 HTML errors and 110 CSS errors.

The problem isn't the CSS but the use of deprecated HTML markup, using the <small> element to size text. Firefox is performing correctly while IE, of course, is not.

I just took another look. The javascript hangs in Firefox and, apparently, is inserting HTML that is not in the original markup; the <small> element for sure.

Thanks for the reply. What do I change the <small> to then?

Hi all Lately I've been trying to compile pyXPCOM on my windows machine. But I've successfully compiled mozilla without pyXPCOM but when I adds the pyXPCOM module the build fails with this message: Error message: d:/test\moz\mozilla\extensions\python\xpcom\src\VariantUtils.cpp(1151) : error C2668: 'nsString::nsString' : ambiguous call to overloaded function

Does anyone else have a problem with the Mozilla browser not expanding a multi-line textbox to its proper size? My textboxes are all small and do not display mu;tiple lines in Mozilla or Netscape but are ok in Internet Explorer. Is there a reason for this and can it be fixed? Dave Uphoff

As a side note to me previous post, I thought I might post about how ASP.Net does not detect the mozilla browser correctly. This means that archaic html is used and some things are not even printed (like the client side validation scripts). To fix this, find the browsercaps section in your machine.config file and add the following somewhere in there: <case match="^Mozilla/5\.0 \(+;+;+;+;...

Hi, i've created a simple web application and throw in some labels, textboxes and requiredfield validators in there. during my testing using different browsers, i've noticed that when i was using Mozilla browsers(Firebird and Mozilla), i've noticed that the validators are not being rendered in the page. it's being rendered properly in IE.

I've been looking at the Mozilla source (1.8b1) and I thought that there I might find definitions of the various client-side JavaScript objects (e.g. history, navigator). Has anyone managed to find these definitions in the Mozilla source code? Grepping for say "navigator" in the mozilla/js directory (and subdirectories) returns only one non-relevant match. I would like to see how these objects are implemented in source-code -James

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
