Firefox not displaying correctly. (DIV Tags)

Evening all,
I'm writing this website for a uni project (www.lsweb.co.uk)
and am having some trouble with displaying some of the data. Looks
great in internet explorer but firefox is causing me some issues.
Specifically, some of the heading logo's don't display properly and
cover up other text on the other side of the page?!
Both the html and CSS is validated using w3c validator so
don't understand why it doesn't work. Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks for reading!
Leigh

  • Firefox Not Displaying Correctly

    I'm a relatively new user of Dreamweaver and I have a problem
    that is driving me up a wall! I built a website for a client that
    is showing up fine in Safari and Internet Explorer but for some
    reason it's missing the background color in FireFox. Any ideas on
    what causes that and is it fixable? All the pages are built off a
    template which has CSS associated with it. I've played with all the
    style sheets and can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be
    much appreciated.

  • Div header tag - not displaying correctly

    I thought I had resolved an issue with a div header tag, but - as per a reply in my 'text as gif' thread, possibly not!
    The header contains three images; a logo, a banner (text), and a picture of a castle.  These should display in a  line.
    When I first set it up, I realised that the castle picture was normally ending up below the other two on smaller screens etc. 
    So I changed the dims for my div container from min 760px/max 1260px, to a set width (960px).  I then rejigged the three images so the widths were within 960px, with some to spare for the spacing (total widths of the three are 900: hspacing another 20 pixels).  There is no padding/borders defined.  Therefore the total should be well within the 960 width (?).
    It looks fine on my PC (widescreen); in 3 browsers, using the restore down menu command (ie to make it not full screen), and by  using the Dreamweaver multiscreen preview (phone, tablet, smaller desktop).  It wasn't ideal (as scrolling required), but at least meant the header (and the rest of the screen) displayed correctly, ie in a horizontal line (and then sidebar - content - sidebar).
    If I set my container width much smaller, most of the screen will be green (the body) in big screens.
    If I rejig the dimensions, it's all a bit hit and miss (and why don't the current dimensions work?).
    Do I need to define the width of the header (as well as the container)?
    Help!  Thank you
    http://hertfordcarnival.org.uk/dev/Index.html

    Hi there, I started off using one big image, but it didn't look right with regards to size and placing (ie I wanted the logo on the left edge, the castle on the right edge, etc). When you say slice, what do you mean?  One image in from fireworks, and then ... ? Thanks again

Certainly don't use 'vspace' and 'hspace' to position the images. If you want to use 3 seperate images start by setting them us as one complete image then slice it into 3 images. Then use the following css to position the images side by side. #header img If the total sum of the width of the images is the same or does not exceed 960px then the images should be in a nice row side by side. They will actually sit side by side without using 'float' but you'll get a small gap between them which will be added to the sum of the width which will exceed 960px causing the third image to drop onto the next line.

  • Overlapping DIV not displaying correctly

    HALP!  I have overlapped a DIV on purpose, the correct DIV is displayed on top on some computers but not on others and does not display correctly in Internet Explorer at all.
    My link is below.  I would like to display the DIV with the flash underneath the Bat DIV.
    http://batengineering.bdaonline.co.nz/
    Can anyone out there help me!

    I see in IE6 that transparency is not handled well at all. .pngs are dicey with IE6.
    If you want to make your Flash movie lie down behind the bat image, you need to give it a wmode="opaque". Otherwise, the Flash will always come to the front.
    In IE6, IE7, and IE8, your top menubar is breaking, the right hand end cap is falling to the second line. You might want to put a little ease into it somehow.
    On all IE and on Firefox on the Mac, there seems to be a nasty white vertical stripe on the right side...maybe a gap in width of the background image. Check to make sure you have a default background-color to make that go away.
    On Safari on the Mac and Firefox on the PC, the Flash does not seem to show up at all in BrowserLab, although I see it on my XP; could be an artefact of BrowserLab's process.
    W3c finds a few errors in the markup: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://batengineering.bdaonline.co.nz/&charset=(detect+a utomatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0
    And the CSS throws a few warnings: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http://batengineering.bdaonline.co.nz/&pr ofile=css21&usermedium=all&warning=1〈=en
    On the whole, though, the page is looking good.

  • CSS : Website not displaying correctly in IE 7 , ok in Firefox and IE8

    Hello all,
    I am a newbie designing my new site with CS4. This is my first post to forum, although I have read many helpful hints while proceeding.
    I will be grateful for resolving a quirky issue.
    My website http://www.chezshuchi.com is not displaying correctly in IE7. IT is displaying correctly in most other browsers. The HTML validation is fine. I think there is some issue with CSS, but I am not able to find it despite spending much time. Will appreciate input.
    Two images are attached. The first is the screenshot in IE 7 . The second in Firefox (IE 8 is same).

    Change the embedded CSS at the head of the page in Code View as follows:
    from
    <!--[if IE]>
    <style type="text/css">
    /* place css fixes for all versions of IE in this conditional comment */
    .twoColLiqLtHdr #sidebar1 { padding-top: 30px; }
    .twoColLiqLtHdr #mainContent { zoom: 1; padding-top: 15px; }
    /* the above proprietary zoom property gives IE the hasLayout it needs to avoid several bugs */
    </style>
    <![endif]-->
    to
    <!--[if IE]>
    <style type="text/css">
    /* place css fixes for all versions of IE in this conditional comment */
    .twoColLiqLtHdr #sidebar1 { padding-top: 30px; }
    .twoColLiqLtHdr #mainContent { zoom: normal; padding-top: 15px; }
    /* the above proprietary zoom property gives IE the hasLayout it needs to avoid several bugs */

  • Google fonts not displaying correctly since updating to Firefox 31.0

    Since updating to Firefox 31.0, the vast majority of Google / web fonts are not displaying correctly, including icons that are being replaced with random characters. When I view the Google web fonts page, only a few display correctly, the rest just default to a sans-serif font.
    - I've tried running in safe mode with no add-ons enabled.
    - I've tried disabling all add-ons then re-enabling one by one.
    - I've checked the tickbox in the font settings for 'Allow pages to use their own fonts' is ticked
    Any help appreciated, it's got quite frustrating now.
    Thanks, Greg

    You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
    *http://browserspy.dk/fonts-flash.php?detail=1
    You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced
    *[ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
    You can check for problems with preferences.
    You can check the <b>gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value).
    Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

  • New user of Firefox. Webpage I made not displaying correctly in Firefox but OK in Win IE. Why is this?

    Im new to Firefox. Just found out the website Im maintaining does not display correctly with Firefox but OK with Win IE. Why is this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I'm going to make a prediction here:
    The webpage will contain a lot of code written specifically to the non-standards compliant way IE works, and will also "not display correctly" in the following standards compliant browsers:
    Chrome
    Safari
    Opera
    and the solution will be to code the pages according to the standards meant to be followed so it displays correctly in all non-IE browsers, '''then''' see how it displays in IE.

  • Website not displaying correctly. Firefox is changing the character set to Western (ISO-8859-1) automatically.

    Normally I have set Firefox (or it's set by default) to Character Set Unicode (UTF-8) and everything displays perfectly. I've never had a problem before.
    Now however, whenever I upload my own website, for some bizarre reason on that particular tab (and only that tab) the Character Set is changed over to Western (ISO-8859-1) and then there's a few characters within my site that do not display correctly, namely apostrophes and hypens.
    It definitely isn't my software (Serif WebPlus X4) because the page displays correctly in every other browser. Plus it displays correctly in Firefox if I change the Character set back to Unicode.
    PS The site is a work in progress

    That happens because the server sends a content-type (<b>text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1</b>) via the HTTP response headers and in that case that content type prevails. The page code is saved with an UTF-8 byte order mark () that you see in this case.

  • I have created a powerpoint web app in sharepoint 2013 ,i used a ppt in this web app.My ppt image is not displaying correctly in MAC mozilla firefox

    I am facing this problem in MAC OS Mozilla Firefox.It is displaying correctly in other browsers like google chrome and internet explorer in MAC OS,but it is not displaying correctly in Mozilla firefox.
    I already checked the possible reasons like:
    1. Restarted my computer
    2. Clear cookies and cache
    3. Restarted Firefox in Safe Mode
    4. Troubleshoot all plugins
    5. Reinstalled Firefox
    6. Reset Firefox.
    anyone know how to fix this issue.I am waiting for your valuable answers.

    Looking at [http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/82591/in-powerpoint-web-app-2013-ppt-is-not-displayed-correctly-in-mac-os-mozilla-fire your screen shot] it reminds me of a problem with Flash on the Retina display not using the full area if hardware acceleration of graphics is disabled. See [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968863 I'm only getting one quarter of a screen on Flash Player on Firefox] (unsolved).
    Not sure if that's relevant but does the display of the slide change if you make sure that hardware acceleration is enabled? The checkbox is here:
    Firefox menu > Prefences > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    Note that any changes take effect after you exit and restart Firefox.
    To see whether Firefox actually is using hardware acceleration, you can check the troubleshooting information. Either:
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    Toward the end, in the Graphics section, look for this row:
    GPU Accelerated Windows
    The number will show a ratio of accelerated to non-accelerated window. If hardware acceleration is disabled, the first number will always be zero.
    By the way, is the SharePoint PPT viewer using Flash, or Silverlight, or another plugin? Typically Firefox will display an icon that looks a bit like a "Lego" block in the address bar showing what plugins are in use in the page.

  • Certain special characters do not display correctly in Firefox ( font COLOR="#1f1a17" FACE="Symbol" SIZE="3" ¬ /font ). Is there a fix?

    Certain special characters which display correctly in Explorer do not display correctly in Firefox. Example: <font COLOR="#1f1a17" FACE="Symbol" SIZE="3">¬</font>
    Is there a fix?

    The symbol font usually doesn't work in Firefox, a website needs to use an Unicode replacement or an HTML entity to specify such a character.
    See:

  • ICloud status not displayed correctly after changing tags

    Hi everybody,
    I have just below 25 000 songs in the iTunes library that I use for iTunes Match (my complete library is actually much larger but I created a separate library to stay below the 25 000 songs limit).
    After changing some tags in iTunes (I had some artists listed twice, once in the format "<last name>, <first name>" and once "<first name> <last name>" and wanted to harmonize this) the iCloud status of most of my songs is no longer displayed correctly. If I create a smart playlist containing all "matched" songs it finds only about 1000 songs, a playlist for "uploaded" songs contains only about 250 songs, the vast majority of my songs simply have NO iCloud status whatsoever (not even "waiting").
    Trying to fix this, I selected all of my songs, option clicked and chose "Add it iCloud". After waiting some time, nothing changed. The funny thing is: iTunes match reports that 24 669 songs (the correct number) are available in iCloud.
    So basically everything works and I am also able to download all of my songs on my iPhone. Still, it's a little bit annoying that the iCloud status is not displayed correctly and smart playlists filtering for iCloud status don't work. Does anybody know a way to fix this?
    Thanks for any help,
    Andreas

    The reason why the C3850 switch stack is showing as standalone in LMS CiscoView is because
    it's returning sysObjectID as standalone.
    It should return as 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1745 --cat38xxstack
    While, if you poll it for sysObjectID, the Catalyst 3850 stack switches will be returning OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.1641.
    This is an IOS bug "CSCul00003 - Incorrect Sys OID for Cat3850 Stack device".
    Unless this bug is fixed, LMS will not be able to show it as stack device.
    You can try to check if you can manually change the device identity to cat38xxstack from Inventory > add/edit device > edit identity.
    Else we need to wait for the fix of this bug.

  • Firefox is not displayed correctly on USB-screen

    Firefox 4.0 is not displayed correctly on USB-screen (Samsung SyncMaster LD 190). Firefox 3.6 was displayed correctly.
    looks like an incompatibility problem between UbiSync and FF 4.0

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
    If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.
    *Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
    *Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
    It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.
    You may have zoomed the page(s) by accident.
    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
