A few cross browser questions

Hello, I have been searching for results for sometime and
decided to come here to ask my question.
Now, I know these questions have been asked alot of times but
I have no good results.
My question:
Why does every website I make look Good in IE and bad in
firefox?
or vise versa. I can make it look good in firefox but looks
bad in I.E.
I mean I layout the design perfectly in Dreamweaver 8 and it
looks sweet in I.E. preview in Firefox and it makes me not want to
make layouts any more..
What do I do? And how do I fix this?
Currently I am making a "Liquid" Layout, using "%" for my Div
and Tables, and they seem to be ok in I.E. like I stated, but still
when I view in firefox, everything is to the left or off centerd or
just plain nasty.
Anytips? I got the whole Screen Resolution trick down, now I
just need professinal tips on cross browser design.
I don't have my site hosted yet so I cannot give you a
preview. I am sure you know what I am talking about as well.
I searched google and many forums (including this one) and
came up empty handed.
What am I doing wrong? Do I just manage the site as it is
even though that the website is 5px off to the right/left in
firefox and looks great in internet explorer.
I want to provide a clean site for both browsers with out
having them redirecting.
Which I can redirect one "If I.E." to a page, and redirect FF
to a diffrent. But that's a hassel in my view.
Seriously, what do I do?
Thank you for your time and any response.

As Jo mentioned, it would be too hard to give you advice on
your page
without seeing the code (or even better a live version).
The better approach is to design for Firefox and then fix the
errors that
are produced in IE.
Are you using a full doc type? That is important, because if
not, then IE
will go into quirks mode, thinking it is rendering your page
correctly, but
FFox will show it out of wack.....
are you using divs of 'layers' (absolutely positioned divs)?
As you can see there are many things that may be wrong with
your site- so
without seeing it, it's too difficult to offer specific
advice.
Have you been through the css tutorials at the Adobe site
(link in my
sig)..... they are very helpful - starting with beginner
tutorials and
moving on from there.

  • JSF Cross Browser Compatibility

    In reading about JSF I find no promise for cross browser compatibility. Am I to assume that this has been missed because
    i. JSF is a specification and not an implementation and I should be looking for the implementation to make that promise.
    ii. it's basically to hard to promise this.
    iii. I didn't look hard enough.
    I am guessing it's a (i) with the likely hood of (ii) to follow. But I would be interested on any feed back that anyone cares to add. For example, a implementation that is trying to promise this.

    In my opinion, the JSF specification (or better, any specification) can only refer to other specifications, but never to a concrete software product. Consider a sentence like:
            JSF 1.0 is compatible with IEWhat could that mean? Some possibilities:
    (1)     As it happened, until now, we did not stumble over a
            faces application that broke when run on our Faces
            reference implementation (version 1_1_01) in a
            WSAD 5.0 container in combination with IE 5.5
            with patch 12345 on Windows NT4 SP6 patch 98765.
            (To breake means to produce a result not legitimized
            by the spec, or to produce no result when one is
            expected, at least not in a reasonable time.
            Breakdowns caused by power failure or other
            reasons outside the scope of the spec to be ignored)Well, not worth any further comment.
    (2)     Implementations of JSF 1.0 Spec will not brake
            on any faces application when run in a
            WSAD 5.0 container in combination with IE 5.5
            with patch 12345 on Windows NT4 SP6 patch 98765
            (To breake means ...)That is ok... if you have just this combination of components and will never change. Keep in mind that (2) does not promise
    anything if you use IE5.5 patch 12345a (and the saying is, there have been several patches to IE ;-)
    (3)     Implementations of JSF 1.0 Spec will not brake
            on any faces application when run in any container
            in combination with IE 5.5
            with patch 12345 on Windows NT4 SP6 patch 98765.
            (To breake means ...)Same as (2)
    (4)     Implementations of JSF 1.0 Spec will not brake
            on any faces application when run in any container
            in combination with IE 6.0 on any platform with
            any patches.
            (To breake means ...)Maybe what is intended, just impossible to promise. First, such a bold statement about some software can not be proven.
    Second, even if you have gained good confidence by thorow testing, who knows which future changes Microsoft will apply to IE 6.0 (via patches, which offen not only correct bugs, but also introduce new and maybe incompatible features)
    (5)     Implementations of JSF 1.0 Spec will not brake
            on any faces application when run in any JSP 1.2
            or higher container in combination any broser
            which supports:
               - HTML 4.0.1
               - JavaScript 1.3
               - CSS 1.0
            where IE 6.0 is a browser which supports these
            three standards on any platform with any patches.
            (To breake means ...)It's getting better. But why, for heavens sake, should a JSF specification make a statement about the compliance of IE with HTML 4.0.1, JavaScript 1.3 and CSS 1.0? I think it would be the job of Microsoft to declare the compatibilty of their products with standards (if any applies, whatsoever).
    Therefore, lets get rid of these and we have:
    (6)     Implementations of JSF 1.0 Spec will not brake
            on any faces application when run in any JSP 1.2
            or higher container in combination any broser
            which supports:
               - HTML 4.0.1
               - JavaScript 1.3
               - CSS 1.0
            (To breake means ...)Nearly finished, just a little bit wordy. It is (nearly) obvious what 'to breake' means. And that it is common wisdom that software breakes, not some specification (Or, as Bertrand Meyer put it, Bubbles don crash. Specifications may be contradictory or fail to describe an algorithm, but never crash). Common wisdom removed gives:
    (7)     Implementations of JSF 1.0 need a JSP 1.2 container
            and a browser capable of HTML 4.0.1, JavaScript 1.3
            and CSS 1.0That's it. Specs exist for two reasons. First, to be discussed and thought about. Second, to be implemented. (To the supporters of agile methods: of course you can reverse the sequence ;-). Therefore, specs should be as short and concise as possible, omitting any useless blabla. If the specs are sufficently precise and of moderate complexity, we can even try to prove the compatibility of the specifications. 'COMPATIBLE WITH IE' is advertisement, not tech talk.
    Conclusion: Mixing up specifications and implementaions is generally a bad thing. Exception: All sentences where a specification and a implementation are mentioned together should have the form:
             Implementation X does [not] conform to specification Y
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I have a follow up question, just inspired by yours. It does not especially concern JSF, but web pages in general.
    Some time ago, I stumbled over quite a few web sites with big red eye catchers:
    OPTIMIZED FOR INTERNET EXPLORER!!!
    And really, they did not look good on Netscape Navigator. Now, my question is, what do you think when you hit such a page? My first thoughts (it's long ago) have been:
        - Oh, nice designers. They really care for the majority of people,
          my neighbor uses an IE.
        - They just skiped the work for other browsers and sell this as an
          optimization. And I didn't get it. Very clever.
        - Poor Guys. Probably they had no other browser at hand.
        - Obviously they had publish this tremendously important information
          under pressure, no time to also optimize for others browsers.Wolfgang Oellinger

  • Cross-browser compatible flash embedding in html5

    I am a newbie with flash with less than a year of experience and this is my first post in this forum.
    I recntly converted my web site from xhtml1.1 to html5 and when it came to flash I was a bit stumped.
    Then the light came on, why not use html5's new and powerful JavaScript engine and I did.
    I was able to use JavaScript to embed the flash object which tested with IE8, FF3.6.4, Safari 5.0, Opera 10.53, SeaMonkey 2.4, Chrome 5,6 and maxthin 2.5 & 3.0.
    I wanted also to keep away from making a http call for swfobject and use the html5 enviornment.
    Therefore, I used the following and placing the JavaScript function within the <head>..</head> tags just above the <body> tag.
    My web site is multi-lingual currently with/for English and German with French and Spanish to follow; the html5 used is simple and it W3C validates it as html5.
    Using the english version this was placed within the head tags
    <script>
           //<![CDATA[
         document.write('<object width="100%" height="100%"  type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="english.swf"  >');
         document.write('<param name="classid"  value="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" />');
         document.write('<param name="pluginurl" value="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,24"  />');
         document.write('<param name="movie" value="english.swf"  />');
         document.write('<param name="quality" value="best" />');
         document.write('<param name="menu" value="false" />');
         document.write('<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"  />');
         document.write('<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain"  />');
         document.write('<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"  />');
         document.write('<param name="scale" value="noscale"  />');
         document.write('<param name="wmode" value="window" />');
         document.write('</object>');
            //]]>
    </script>
    I have also noticed that an iPAD visited my wbe site indicatingn to me that it works on an iPAD and by virtue that this method of flash embedding works with the above borwser types; it is I think a cross-browser method.
    To see this in action feel free to visit my web site and look at the index.html, english.html or the german.html code to see this implemented; the web site is www.mirana.net
    Now my questions is:
    1. is this a good method and why? or why not?
    2. can this be placed mainstream ?
    Thank you for reading this and be merciful in responses

    Hi
    Thanks for replying, I appreciate that.
    I do agree that that an initial view may appear as the 'standard flash embed' but in this case it is not by virtue of its location being between the head tags.
    There is IMHO considerable difference placing this method between the head tags as compared to placing in/on the body.  Try it out yourself in html5.
    1. it valdiates
    2. reduces http calls
    3. appears to load faster but that can be purely dependent upon the visitor's internet connectivity
    4. fundamentally works with all browser that I tested it with
    Traditionally with flash embedding there was an issue with/in validation of the html document and this goes back to 2002 when the 'Satay' method corrected this. As I now understand it with the release of CS5 html that is published uses the object method of embedding.
    The fact that an iPAD was on my web site and viewing pages certainly was a surprise, I only wish I had an iPAD.

  • Hey, I'm doing some cross browser testing and i want to know Is there any difference between the behavior of Firefox in an operating system 64bit & operating system with 32bit. (like windows7/windows vista...)

    Hey, I'm doing some cross browser testing and i want to know Is there any difference between the behavior of Firefox in an operating system 64bit & operating system with 32bit. (like windows7/windows vista...)

    Hi Kossa,
    You can also check if the issue occurs in
    Clean Boot. If the issue disappears in the Clean Boot environment, you can continue to narrow down which entry is causing the issue.
    Besides, uninstall it and re-download
    a fresh copy of FireFox to check the result. If the issue still exists, create a new user account to see if it occurs.
    If the issue persists, you can contact Mozilla Support directly and use Internet Explorer (IE) during the time.

  • A few post config questions on new setup

    Hi Group,
    Just a few post config questions.
    First, how can I confirm my controller is in fact associating properly with an NTP server?  On a typically cisco product, I could just do a 'show ntp associations' or a 'show ntp status'.  I cannot see a way to confirm this on the gui or command line.
    Second, on my guest network with web-auth, if one were to choose to not use https for web-auth and instead use unsecure http, would that be possible and if so where in the gui?
    Thanks.

    The third field is from a WLC running v7.4 not v7.2.  I usually would install a 3rd party certificate, but what eles you can try is issue this command on from the CLI.  It had issues working with certain code versions, but you might as well give it a try.

  • Cross browser testing : Modifier Keys playback actions not working in chrome and Firefox

    Hi,
    In my work flow I have to select multiple items in list.So I have recorded 'Ctrl+Click' action to select list items.In Chrome and Firefox it is not selecting multiple Items.
    Even Ctrl+A,Ctrl+C,Ctrl+V also not working in chrome and Firefox.Complete modifier keys support is not observed in chrome and Firefox.Let me Know how to automate modifier keys actions in cross browser?
    Regards,
    Nagasree.

    Hi Nagasree,
    Welcome to MSDN forums.
    First,please make sure the Chrome and Firefox is supported by cross browser testing.
    Latest version of Chrome and Firefox supported by cross browser testing are Chrome version 38.0.2125.111 and
    Firefox 33.
    I doubt whether Chrome and Firefox in cross browser testing don’t support automating modifier keys or there is anything wrong on it if you are using supported browser. Since this issue is related to the Extensions tool
    Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing, if possible, I suggest you post this
    issue here, click “Q AND A”, and then you could post this issue there, you would get dedicated
    support there.

  • Need help with Rollover Image cross browser problem

    Hello,
    I am having a cross browser problem with my websites rollover nav links.  The trouble is, while they work perfectly fine in IE8 and IE9, I’ve also attempted to use them through Opera, and they simply don’t work.  They don’t link nor do they do their rollover effect.  And I was trying to figure out what I have done wrong.  Currently the site is not completed, but the first two pages are, the “news” and “about me” pages are currently (as of right now) working.  The address to the site is below.
    http://maxmetal.xsustudios.com/index.html
    I hope that someone can help me with this, if needs be I can put the code for the CSS and HTML into this part if it will save some time for everyone.  Sorry too about the PNG images, I have to change those over to semi-transparent GIF’s yet so the site does take a while to load…
    Hope someone can help me with this!
    PALADIN

    When I disable CSS in my browser, the rollover buttons work just fine.  This tells me your CSS is messed up and you've layered something over your menus which is making them inaccessible to users.
    I noticed you've applied relative positioning to just about everything on your page.  Why?   Default CSS positioning (unspecified or static) is all you need for 98% of layouts.

  • GREAT cross browser javascript xml libriary

    Hello !
    This cross browser javascript xml libriary, will make work with XML much easier.
    I am working on client side javascript at my job, and had to handle some data in big xml files using advanced xpath and this is not problem when dealing with IE but when it comes to Firefox and Opera it become nightmare to finish this job.
    Then I decided to write module in javascript that can handle xml query using xpath:
    http://www.softxml.com/softxmllib/softxmllib.htm
    It supports all known browsers on windows.
    It's functions named same as Microsoft.XMLDOM
    loadXML,load,selectNodes but supported by all browsers
    If any one of you tired too writing javascript/xml for all browsers, then go and download this module!!!!
    Thanks

    But since the only way (or at least so I think) to pass a
    javascript variable to CF is via a javascript
    document.location.href redirect (and passing the variables via URL
    variables), I have the javascript in the first page redirect and
    send the variables to the coldfusion template that then digests the
    xml and does a database insert.
    You should just do a server-side redirect and avoid
    Javascript altogether. As a rule of thumb, one should use
    Javascript to manipulate data or presentation at the client end.

  • Cross Browser/OS issue?

    Hi there,
    This website belongs to our school project and we are getting reports from the teacher assistance and the professor that the website is not funcationing properly. They are saying the menu on the bottom of the page is not showing so they cant navigate the site.

    Thank you for your help in advanced.

    that fixed the issue...which is weird since i was getting response from freind with both mac or windows tell me different things...

  • Where can I find a cross-browser bookmarks synchronizer?

    I'm currently using the Xmarks type of add-ons, but Xmarks is planning to shut down within 90 days, and no replacement seems to be available.
    Although Internet Explorer 8 is my preferred browser, add-ons to eliminate duplicate bookmarks appear to be available only for Firefox.
    Also, I can report newsgroups spam fast enough on Google Groups that their software often confuses me with a computer program; rotating among the four browsers I have installed seems to help with this.
    I'd like to synchronize the bookmarks collection among all 4 browsers; the Xmarks series of add-ons currently does this with two of them, and tries but fails with a third one; not available for the fourth.

    Xmarks has now been acquired by LastPass. They're now planning to continue bookmarks synchronization (including cross-browser), but substitute the LastPass method of passwords synchronization for the Xmarks method.

  • Cross browser differences

    The jsp pages in our project work fine in IE browser. But in Netscape browsers, the alignment is all messed up. We are at the end of the project and we dont have time to change all the jsp pages. I was told that there is some kind of javascript to handle situations like this. Including that javascript in the jsp pages essentially solves this problem. I was wondering if this is true? Please share your knowledge on this topic. I really appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Ravi.

    Hi,
    it depends on how you have structured your code. If you have done a css for the layout, you can know what browser is in use and switch to a specific external css. Something like:
    if (document.layers)
    document.write("<LINK HREF='netscape.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
    else if (document.all)
    document.write("<LINK HREF='stile.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
    else if (!document.all && document.getElementById)
    document.write("<LINK HREF='mz.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
    else
    document.write("<LINK HREF='xx.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
    and so on...
    Sometimes the problem is in using special costruc that works fine only in IE (for example): this is quite more complicated to solve, becouse you have to find a different solution.
    There isn't any "general" solution to cross browser compatibility; usually it is a good idea to start developing in order to achieve it and not to demand it in a late stage.

  • Cannot install Selenium Components for Cross Browser Testing extension from Visual Studio 2013

    Hello,
    I am having some issues with installing Selenium Components for Cross Browser testing.  I keep getting this error everytime. Yes, Visual Studio 2013 has been registered with a product key. However, I cannot seem to bypass this error. I tried to install
    from http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/11cfc881-f8c9-4f96-b303-a2780156628d and from Tools->Extensions and Updates from Visual Studio 2013. It just does not work. I have a copy of Visual Studio 2013.  Yes, I already have Visual Studio
    2012 Ultimate and Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate installed on my machine. What am I missing?

    Hi Antwan,
    Please uninstall the VS, then reinstall it.
    On the other hand, this issue is in the extension, I suggest that you should post it in
    Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing site for efficient response. (Q AND A)

  • Begginer Flex Apps for browser Questions:

    Begginer Flex Apps for browser Questions:
    To change Dim in Flex App I must change file in address bar of browser, in other words create another page?
    Usually Flex Web sites come in only one file or many [upper 10?]?
    Scrolled Area in Flex how called [I mean like XHTML DIV Scrolled area?
    I book Flex 4: vol. I , Tranning from the Source, from Adobe press, covered:
    Scrolled Areas
    email components
    publish to live server
    if not, then all these covered in vol.II?

    to change the dimension of your flash window inside the browser you can use javascript... or you can have your flash-element in full size of the browser window and handle the resizing flash-intern, so you do not need an extra page for that. Just take a look at the HTML-Code and ask again if you are not that skilled with HTML/JavaScript.
    usual you have only one SWF.
    You can use the spark Scroller (see http://blog.flexexamples.com/2009/05/01/creating-a-scrolling-spark-panel-container-in-flex -gumbo/ for example)
    Sorry, I don't know, but I can give you some hints:
    for scrolling you can use Scroller
    I don't know, what you mean by e-mail but you can use javascript to create a "mailto:"-link (see http://flexonblog.wordpress.com/2007/12/18/mailing-in-flex-using-javascript-function-mailt o/ )
    the easiest way to deploy you just have to copy your swf and html-files from your flex-project to a web-server.

  • Cross Browser? Opinions please.

    Say a developer develops a basic .html site that is viewable
    cross-browser. Now, taking advantage of features available in one
    browser, he or she develops content that uses those features.
    Not wanting to negatively impact the experience of other
    browser users, whose browser cannot use those features and indeed
    causes problems in their browser, the developer codes the site to
    detect the browser and not display the additional content to them.
    So the browser users who can see the new content get it and
    those with other browsers see only the original site. No harm, no
    foul? Or is the definition of Cross-Browser that EVERYONE MUST see
    the same content - develop for the lowest common denominator?
    The reason I ask, is that I have heard people throw around
    terms like "unprofessional" if someone develops for only one
    browser. I was just wondering what the definition of Cross-Browser
    is.

    "unprofessional" might be too much of a word. Bottom line is
    what is that your
    client needs and agree too.
    For years people were developing stuff that was only
    supported in IE, no one *****
    about it because it was kind of given, we all knew it simply
    did not work anywhere else.
    From basic css to dhtml and others...
    If my clients does not mind that I develop with FireFox in
    mind and not IE, why would
    I care if someone call me unprofessional. I want my content
    to work right to the client
    liking.
    I read some threads day or two days back, pretty similar
    issue. Tho I could not agree
    with some of the points but than again, if my client has a
    say in it and he is ok, that
    is fine with me. Lots if not all of my clients feel strongly
    about IE and security problems.
    These are normal mortals, not computer savvy people and they
    hate the idea that
    regular surfing get them pack up with spyware and all this
    stuff, people who not suppose
    to know about cleaners, protections and 20 other applications
    required just to run browser safely.
    Because of that, they strongly encourage support of FireFox
    and content specifically built
    for it.
    I herd many of times, "don't worry about IE, we don't want it
    anyway"...

  • Cross browser testing:Click action on UITestcontrol got using ExcuteScript API is not working.

    Hi,
    For one of the web control,I am using ExecuteScript API to get the UITestControl as explained in this link (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/01/18/introducing-jscript-execution-on-internetexplorer-and-crossbrowser-in-coded-ui-test.aspx
    )and trying to perform click action on the control.It is not performing the click action on the control but script status is success.
    Problem is seen only with specific Overload of Mouse.Click().Here I am constructing the control using bounding rectangle dynamically.
    The API I am using is
     Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITesting.Mouse.Click(UITestControl, MouseButtons.Left, ModifierKey.None, clickablePoint );
    Point Caluculation is shown below:
    clickablePoint  = return new Point(boundingRect.Width / 5, boundingRect.Height / 4);
    I tried to debug the code and found that Selenium web driver is throwing null reference exception while using this API for Left button click action.Could you please check the problem and fix it.So that I can
    use this API as per my requirement.
    Regards,
    Nagasree.

    Hi Nagasree,
    Latest version of Chrome and Firefox supported by cross browser testing are Chrome version 38.0.2125.111 and
    Firefox 33. So please make sure the Chrome and Firefox is supported by cross browser testing
    Whether this API: Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITesting.Mouse.Click(UITestControl, MouseButtons.Left, ModifierKey.None, clickablePoint ) worked fine with IE browser when
    you run this test?
    If the same API worked fine on IE browser but not on Chrome or Firefox browser, “Q AND A” tab in this link:
    Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing is a better place for resolving this problem.
    It seems that you want to click the control using bounding rectangle, then you don't neet to use MouseButtons.Left and ModifierKey.None, you can use such API:
    Click(UITestControl, Point) or
    Click(Point) directly.
    You also can try to use the following code snippet, maybe it can help you.
    Rectangle r = TargetControl.BoundingRectangle.
    Mouse.Click(new Point(r.X + r.Width/2, r.Y + r.Height/2));
