Accessing .NET app via Mozilla(Firefox ) vs IE

When accessing a VB.net application I've created with mozilla it replaces div
tags with table tags. I realize that this is a "feature" of .NET to support
browsers that are older but Mozilla and Firefox have terrific support for
current HTML standards. Our application is going to be viewed by
Mozilla-based browsers and the markup that displays in anything other than IE
is ugly. (Changing your user agent to IE in mozilla renders the same
application exactly the same as in IE). Is there anyway to disable this kind
of "smart" rendering by .NET?

The objective is not to 'disable' adaptive rendering as you incorrectly
assume but learn to append configuration files with updated declarative code
that was not known or available when the framework was released. Read this
[1]. Then use Google to find many other articles and blogs that are being
published..

I'm programming a JS tile map editor for my friend's game. The map editor has different "sections" that contain different tiles. The way that it works is when you select a section it calls a JS function that changes the src of a script tag that contains the array of tiles for that section, then reloads the tile selection table. This works great in IE, but Mozilla/Firefox doesn't update the array when I switch JS files. I've tried putting a...

Well, while working on a rich ui with DHTML I discovered the following problem: Mozilla/Firefox seems to be wrong when rendered elements with sizes given in percents and that are placed into another elements with percentage sizes, if the content overflows them (of course, overflow is set to the value of "scroll") To check the written above please use the given below code <table style="" height="50%" width="100%">

I'm just starting the process of reorganising my modest little website and cleaning up all the HTML, and the logical place to begin was with the homepage. I made a simple little ASP.NET control that I can drop into the beginning of any page and it will generate HTML to display my logo, a link, and (optionally) a quote of the day, all of which will be horizontally centered at the top of the page by my default stylesheet. For the main page,...

Hi! I am currently developping a user interface with Ajax/C#/.net. And I am facing a problem with Mozilla, and Firefox. I use the function innerHTML to load a Web UserControl into a div, this way the main page never gets refreshed. It works perfectly under IE, but with Mozilla and Firefox I got a problem : there is a space before the thing I want to display everytime I use ".innerHTML".

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

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. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
