Cross browser woes

Expand Post »

I can't seem to figure out where my code is going wrong for my page. It appears fine in firefox, but IE things get messed up when you scroll down the page and mouse over the last few pictures. Here is my page:

Re: Cross browser woes

ZM,

You need to give your page a doctype statement - right at the top.

Any of these works for me (in IE 6):

(Toggle Plain Text)

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"-->
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Re: Cross browser woes

You just need to use new IE.
