Having trouble with browser compatibility

I am fairly new to web design and Dreamweaver. I have created a website for my father's business and it looks as it is supposed to in every browser except for IE. When I use Adobe BrowserLab to check compatibility, in IE 7 & 8 for windows all of my sidebar shifts down. In IE 6 for windows it is even worse, the main content shifts WAY down.
Can someone please help me with this? Is there some code I am missing to make it view correctly in IE for windows?
The site is www.claremontglassworks.com
Thank you.

IE6 has many, many bugs: double margins bug, the 3px gap bug and expanding box bug.
As a test, increase your #container width to 790 or 800px and see if that makes IE6 behave.
As for the other IE browsers, you have conditional comments in your page that adds 30px of top padding to your #sidebar1. Try adjusting or deleting that.

.twoColFixRtHdr #sidebar1 { padding-top: 30px; }

Having trouble with browser scrolling and master volume key

I just got a Blackberry 9350 and I've run into some trouble. My master volume and mute key doesn't work at all. Scrolling up and down on some web pages doesn't work but works when not on the browser. I've tried messing with settings and turning the phone off and on. Any help would be appreciated!

Having trouble with Flash Player in regards to youtube

Hello,
Recently I started having trouble with Flash Player in regards to using it with youtube. Sometimes all I see is a blank white screen and sometimes I do see the video with no surrounding youtube webpage or suggested videos etc. Nothing has changed on my computer as far as I know except the usual updates etc. I have tried uninstalling Flash Player and reinstalling with no luck. I even tried an older version. I am running windows XP and IE and have McAfee for my anti-virus. I am not the most computer savy person in the world and could sure use some help.
Thanks,
Ron

Hitomi,
Thanks for the links. I am pretty sure it is not a problem with Flash Player itself but something else that is causing this. I don't know how to do a "screen shot", but even if I did I don't know that it would do anygood to show that because the youtube video screen and surrounding webpage only show for a second and then it goes totally white.
Pat,
Here is what I found:
Intel(R) 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family
Driver Provider          Intel corporation
Driver Date               6/8/2005
Driver Version          6.14.10.4332
Digital Signer               Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatability Publis
Update:
This morning after doing some further reading and research on the Internet I tried running youtube in the "InPrivate Browsing" window and youtube worked fine. So thinking I should delete my Internet Browing History, Cache, and Cookies, based on what I read I went ahead and did that but it still doesn't want to work. I think I did the deletions correctly? As I mentioned above I am not very computer savvy but can get by on the basics. Where should I go from here based on this info?
Thanks,
Ron

Having Trouble With E-mails That Involve Animation

This is too weird. When I receive an e-mail that has animation in it it comes through freeze framed in Mail. It does not matter if it is in my .Mac account or Verizon account. Just for the heck of it I forwarded it to myself using the Verizon account and opened it in Safari. I also did the same thing with my .mac account. I opened it on the web. Bingo, I had animation. I am also having trouble with WMV's. Why can I not get any animation in Mail? Is there something I am doing wrong? any way to correct this?

OK, from the sound of your post, you have a limited knowledge about email. Let me see if I can help. I would guess that you have a Windows machine that you have used in the past. Your email address must be a "pop" address. That means that your internet service provider has a server where your mail is sent. This is different than a web mail address, that is accessed remotely with a web browser, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari. You must then be using an email program, such as Outlook Express, to go get the email onto your local machine. Any email program can do this. Open up the accounts tab in Outlook Express, and write down the settings. There will be one for the incoming server, and one for the outgoing server. Now, on your Mac, you can use the email program provided, such as Mac Mail, and put the settings in there. You can now send and receive to your Mac using your supplied email address. You can use another program such as Thunderbird to do this if you want. You don't have to use Mac Mail.
Getting your old email off of the Windows computer is a bit harder, so hopefully you don't need to do that. But if you do, I can direct you on how to do that also.

I am having trouble with plug-ins. How do I cure this? The last time I believe I had to update my operating system. My current operating sytstem is MAX OSx , Version 10.6.8

I am having trouble with plug-ins being blocked. I have an I-Mac, 2.4 Ghz processor, 2 GB memory, and using Safari as my browser. My operating system is MAC OSX Version 10.6.8

Any particular plugin or all of them? If Adobe Flash Player, try un-installing and then re-installing.

Having trouble with e-mail

I recently bought a macbook for college, and I am having trouble with my e-mail. I have an account on outlook express that works well, and i just wanted to know if there is any way that I could access it from this laptop.
I am going to college and they send me important stuff, so I need that address. If it is not possible then what kind of e-mail address should i make (yahoo, etc.)

OK, from the sound of your post, you have a limited knowledge about email. Let me see if I can help. I would guess that you have a Windows machine that you have used in the past. Your email address must be a "pop" address. That means that your internet service provider has a server where your mail is sent.

I have 64-bit Vista on an HP laptop, and am having trouble with P4

I have 64-bit Vista on an HP laptop, and am having trouble with P4. When I go to the "Compatibility" tab in for the P4 .exe file, 32-bit Vista does not show up as a compatibility option. The latest version shown is XP with SP2. Am I missing something? Is there a patch or download that updates P4?(The problem I'm having is stuttering and stopping in the imported avi2 files I have downloaded from my Panasonic digital camcorder and converted from avi to avi2 using DVDate. Also, I get stuttering with digital photos - jpg files - that I want to insert in the movie with added narration.)

A.T. Romano
It gets a little complicated. This is a simplification, but I hope this
helps to visualize what's happening.
The 32 bit and 64 bit environments are separated from each other.
There are separate program files directories, separate shared dll library
directories, and even separate registry entries. You can't mix 32 and
64 bit modules, and some applications, like Internet Explorer, install
both a 32 bit and a 64 bit version on the same computer. (IE does that
so it can process web pages that use 32 bit executable controls).
Vista 64 has 32 bit emulation built-in using a subsystem called Windows
on Windows 64 or WOW64 for short. WOW64 intercepts 32 bit
application calls to the operating system and handles the 32 to 64 bit
conversions and the redirection of the file and registry locations.
The program files themselves contain flags that indicate whether they
are 32 bit and whether the file uses the 64 bit version of the file
structure.
If the program is marked 32 bit, it will run in 32 bit using WOW64.
Programs are generally installed by an installer program which places
the application files in the proper locations and writes the registry
entries and any other setup tasks that are needed. To install a 64
bit program, a 64 bit installer is needed. For 32 bit installers, the files
and registry entries are redirected to the 32 bit locations.

Im having trouble with FF & Youtube; it wont play videoes

i'm having trouble with FF; Youtube videos dont play, just a black screen ? ; they play ok on Google Chrome; BBC news videos play ok with FF. I have upgraded Adobe Flash no look, reverted to previous, no luck. I'm running Windows 7, on a DELL Inspiron with terraflops of memory and no system bugs, clean as a whistle.
FF is my default browser. The mouse-over previews play? Sometime for fractions of second videos try to play, then revert to black screen.

Where can I find Firefox 3.6 to download since I am having trouble with Firefox 4.

I would like to install Firefox 3.6, but I am having trouble finding a place where I can download it. I previously upgraded to Firefox 4, but am having trouble with it and would like to go back to 3.6. Where can I find a site that will let me download 3.6?

What problems are you having with Firefox 4?
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

Having trouble with internet connections using my Apple G5. Updates turn out to be incompatible with my system. What should I do short of trashing the wonderful computer and spending cash I don't have on a new iMac?

Having trouble with internet connections using my Apple G5 OSX 10.4.11. Attempts to upgrade FireFox or Safari results in being incompatible with with this system. Tried to locate earlier versions to replace upgraded incompatible software only to find that problems have worsened with crashing results. What should I do short of trashing this wonderful G5 and purchasing a new iMac which I really can't afford?
Chuck's Dilema

Hi Chuck,
TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
I'd avoid vesrion 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/
Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.
Also...
The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.

Might be later ones around also... saw 11.3 I think.
(If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.
See in each Browser which version of Flash it thinks it has...
