[help]Need help with browser compatibility

im getting messages that my site doesn't look that great on all browsers...someone says that it doesn't work on opera very well and i check IE and i get problems with the look of the site in that....im using wordpress

....also i am having trouble keeping the width of the page the same on the categories page (this problem is less important) - anyone got any ideas?

my site is in my signature

Half the images don't load, but other than that it renders OK in Safari 2.0

#298031

I have Opera Version 8.0 Build 7561, work very good for me!

#298043

What would be the cause of half of the images not loading?

#298139

Well, because you are calling the images where they are not...

You are calling the images in jag.needlement/images while most of them, are being called by the CSS file in http://www.jag.needlemen.com/wp-content/th...quasoft/images/ - Where they really are...

#298143

ah....i see....is that t supposed to be there?....or was that a typing error?...thanks for that info i'll get onto changing that

#298148

Images are supposed to be where you want them to be :confused: - You cant just install a skin/add images if you dont know what the code does/where the images go :slant:

i modified a skin for wordpress and err kinda didn't clean up after myself....now i have to sort out where the problems are

#298154

The images wont load because in your HTML you are calling to images that dont exist... Thats where your problems are :slant:

#298159

if possible could you give me a list of these images that do not exist...if you don't want to don't grill me for it....this is my first site....i started it up like tweo weeks ago

#298165

I think that someone u mentioned is ME... :lol:

Except the index page , in other pages, the content portion expands , while titlebar like thingy doesnt..

Check the outer #wrapper or #container has correct width. :D

#298166

Ok, even if its your first site - Look at your HTML code and find the calls for images you have ( i mean, finding them has no science) and make sure they are pointing where they should (i pasted the folder where your images really are - i cant believe i'd know and you wouldn't)

#298168

um seph by html code do you mean whats in my style.css file? (just double checking)

#298170

css is not html :confused: - Im talking about the template that displays the actual page :slant:

#298171

oh ok....fine i'll check that

#298172

The site comes up fine in Opera 8 & Firefox 1. BUT in IE some pictures don't show up.

#298176

blitz can you pm me a screeny please?

also can i ask one thing?....how do i find out the images that aren't showing up?....also i just want to check...do i change the images featured in the site by editing the css file?

#298181

As i told you already - You look for the images in the wordpress code that displays the actual page (The code that displays the articles, the templates) and check if every image is loading.

And as i told you too - You dont change the images in the CSS you change them in the template that displays the site...

In your code, you have this, for example...

[*]"" in your index page - you have no navsep2.gif in "jag.needlemen.com/images" - it will obviously not display.

If you dont know where an image is displayed and cannot differentiate between a css file and the placeholder file, you need to do some reading before you have an actual website :slant:

#298196
