Help Problems with browser compatibility.. especially internet explorer

  #1  
Mar 18th, 2008
Hello..

I musy apoligize in advance for this, since this thread will be pretty much dedicated to my website, but hopefully if anyone has any tips or solutions on how to debug HTML, Javascript and CSS, others will find useful information here.

My problem is simple. My website does not run on all browsers. It works fine on firefox, internet explorer USED to show it, but since using more scripts, now you can't even view it at all.

Currently it utilizes HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, XML, and Flash. HTML and CSS are used for the layout, PHP for the subcontent of each page, Javascript for text effects and the date/time, Flash for music players and image viewers.

Image formats used are .gif, .jpg and .png, the latter of which I prefer over the others for it's high resolution and uncompressed colour.

I am a little disappointed, since the website looks great, and I have learned a lot developing it, but I have obviously not designed it to WC3 standards. I have used dreamweaver for the entire project, with the assistance of many web developer sites.

If anyone would like to view the website and have a look at my (sloppy?) code to make some constructive criticism, the website is the same as my username (+ .org)

Some questions first though:
1) With such a complex website, is it better to stick to one dynamic language, such as PHP, instead of using a mish mash of code? if so then...

2) are there any programs that can make converting a website entirely into PHP possible?

3) Is it unadvisable to use multiple javascript codes? Is is possible to merge scripts within <script></script> tags?

3) Can anyone suggest programs that I can use to debug my website?
