Published site looks too big in Internet Explorer.

My site is published to an ftp site and looks fine in Firefox and Safari (Mac), but when viewed on Internet Explorer on a PC it looks horrendous. Type spacing is off, the pages are way too big for the window, black squares appear behind objects in random places. On one page a fairly large Album doesn't show up. Do I have to use MobileMe to avoid this?

IE is the worst browser in the world and the most popular.
I am on a never ending mission to make my various elements of iweb work in IE.
Web safe fonts, .SWF, Flash etc. Nightmare!
I wish iweb could include alternative or work arounds for IE as it does for fonts.

Website looks messed up in internet explorer....

I created a website for my volunteer fire company with Dreamweaver 8 on my Mac. The site looked fine when I reviewed it with Firefox and Safari so I uploaded it. Then I started to get phone calls that it was fouled up looking. When others looked at it using Internet Explorer on there PC's the background images in the tables became offset and in some cases started to repeat. Is there an issue between Mac and internet Explorer or between Dreamweaver 8 and Internet Explorer. The site is www.goodwillhose.com if you want to take a look. Please, any help would be appreciated.

Is it possible to "no-repeat" the background image in a table?
Yes, with CSS or inline CSS styling like so:
<table style="width: 1000px; border: 2px solid silver; background: red url(your-image.png) no-repeat top center" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>
Your code is invalid, owing to your use of deprecated table height values and HTML syntax with an XHTML document type.
Use the on-line code validation tool here:
HTML Validator - http://validator.w3.org
You might want to study this tutorial. It was written with DW8 in mind, but the basics are still the same.

If your site visitors use pre-IE7 browsers, your transparent PNG images have a light blue cast to them. Do a Google search for IE PNG Fix.

My Muse test site gets error message from Internet Explorer v8.0.6

My Muse test site gets error message from Internet Explorer v8.0.6

What's the URL of the page? Where is the site hosted (Adobe Business Catalyst or elsewhere)? How were the files uploaded to the server (Publish, FTP Upload from within Muse, external FTP client)?

Site problems in Firefox and Internet Explorer

Here's my site: http://davesnowgraphics.com/DSG/Home.html
Created in iWeb '08. Here is a list of problems. Solutions welcome.
1) In all browsers: links to internal pages open up in a new window or tab. As an internal link, the option to "Open page in a new window" is not even available. I therefore assume that they should open in the same window, but most open in a new page or tab.
2) In Firefox (both Mac and PC) the text spacing is messed up. Throws spaces in the middle of words and generally stretches text or letter spacing, making text returns seemingly at random. The fonts are all supposedly web safe (Trebuchet MS and Times New Roman).
3) Site is TOTALLY jacked in Internet Explorer. Transparency of linked images dumped, making intended graphics solid white. Also on the PC (I don't have the Mac I.E.), my text gets hijacked by random text links with those annoying pop-up boxes that lead elsewhere.
Is it possible for an iWeb-generated site to work in commonly-used browsers, or do I have to learn Dreamweaver?

Okay, so I did some code experimentation and solved everything in my last post inquiry.
Seems the entire line *onclick="window.open(this.href); return false;" onkeypress="window.open(this.href); return false;"* needs to be removed from the javascript that iWeb generates when you have a link associated with a graphic. Pain in the butt, but it works.
Also did extensive searching for title= and manually changed the following text to what I wanted it to be.
I'm interested to know if these issues are resolved with the iWeb '09 update. Anybody know?
I also removed the graphics that I was using as links on the cubes. I put simple square shapes in the middle of the cube sides, made them transparent and assigned the link to them. They don't map the entire cube side as a link, but enough to make it functional. Also, for some reason, the fact that they're native iWeb-generated shapes and not placed graphics, they open up in the same page without having to delete the code line mentioned above.
Still no solutions to the following I.E. issue in my initial post.
I have the site open on my PC right now in IE. If you go to About > Services, the words "Business", "communication" and "Project Management" are green with double underlines. If I roll over them, I get a popup window with an advertisement for GameVance. What's up with that? Is that a setting in my local Internet Explorer properties that I need to disable?

Flash Animation In IWeb Site Not Showing Up In Internet Explorer

I have created a site for a company and used a flash file on one of the pages. The flash file does not open when looked at from a computer using Internet Explorer, which happens to be the client. Please advise on some possible solutions (besides using IE). Thanks!

I don't know that much about PC's, but you need to open the browser and click on the preferences, I think in the same way as you would do with a Mac and click on select javascript.
Rather than Firefox, get them to download a copy of Safari for PC from the Apple site.
Other than this I am not really sure of a solution, other than telling them to buy a Mac instead!!

Content of site does not display in Internet Explorer

I am designing the local Budget rent a car site in the Virgin
Islands using Dreamweaver CS3 and the help of CSS.
In the beginning it displayed well on every browser even
Internet Explorer. Then as I fine-tuned it I must've changed
something in my coding, cause now only the front page displays in
Internet Explorer and all the other pages only show a white block.
I've been sitting on this issue for a few days already, so
any help would be much appreciated.
The test site is
http://64.225.234.146/test/index.html
Username: user1596972
Password: v8tqnpcmmz

Honestly, it looks OK to me in IE7. Is that the browser you
are using?

A bi publisher report is not displayed in internet explorer

Hi
I am having a problem with one of my computers. It has a problem when a user is trying to access a bi publisher report.
The part of the window when it is supposed to display the report it is saying "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" .
It displays the part when the user inserts the filters, but when he presses the 'GO' button I am having this error message.
The problem is locally, because in another computer this user can access this report without a problem.
Can you please help me to solve this issue?
Thank you and best regards

Try comparing the settings of the Internet explorer on the machine you are having trouble with running the report vs the computer that you are successfully able to run the report. As this is computer specific, this should be either related to IE settings or missing components like flash etc installed on the machine.
Regards,
-Amith.

The expand on Youtube is not working with many Youtube sites and they work on Internet Explorer

On many of the sites on Youtube the expand does not work with Mozilla Firefox 4. I have gone to Internet Explorer and they work there. When I come back from Internet Explorer strange enough the expand on Firefox works. Obviously its picking up programming from Internet Explorer, unfortunately it does not last long. I've tried plug ins, reloading flash player after I deleted it and re-installed it, the problem still exist. Also on the expand screens that do work on the right side there is a very thin white line coming down the border. I'm not the only one with this problem. please help with this problem.

Indeed, this is a bug in HTTPS-everywhere which you can see here : https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/4032

Iweb revisions not publishing - site looking crazy. why? what to do?

Hey there
I'm trying to publish my site (www.whereidstay.com) - and it keeps publishing a crazy version for about 3 of 7 of the pages, with enornous and misplaced text, etc. I've tested the connection to the ftp server, and that seems to be working fine. I'm not a pro at this stuff, so I'm stumped!
Any ideas? I'm hoping to send out a blast email today since our business will be featured on HGTV's House Hunters Intermational tonight, but i don't want to if the site looks crazy!
With thanks in advance
Ashley

First clear your browser's cache (Command+Option+E for Safari) and reload the site. Check the pages to see if they appear corrent now. I loaded your site and it appears OK but I don't know if any text is missing. What's there looks OK.
If there's missing text can you include a screenshot of the page in iWeb for comparison?

Why does my published site look nothing like the Muse site I designed?

I have published and taken live several sites and they all looked as expected. The most recent site looks nothing like the Muse site I designed. I published it and BC took me to the home page, where all the background images, graphics, slide show are all missing. Text looks like regular text, not html formatted text. I can't show this. What happened?

Similar situation just happened to me this morning. Opened a Muse site I was working on and when I preview it the web fonts are not showing and alignment is wierd. ??? Was working fine last week.

Published site looks different on mac and pc?

having (finally) published my site, why do the fonts and layout look different on my mac to my husbnad's pc? v odd???

because different browsers interpret CSS files indifferent ways and because fonts that are installed on your mac may not necessarily be installed on your husbands pc. It is a common gripe of web designers (not just those using iWeb) that margins and padding (for example) are all read differently by IE than by FF.

Hello,
Flash Player does not display pop-ups. If you are experiencing this behaviour you most likely have malware installed on your system. You'll want to scan your system with anti-malwareand anti-virus software.

New site window too big

On my laptop the panel that sets the parameters for a new
site, like root folder, etc., is so big that I can't see the top or
bottom edges. The only way to get out of the window is to force
Dreamweaver to quit. Is there a preference somewhere? This program
was 'ported over from a G5 with a larger screen.
Thanks

Does your system meet the minimum requirements of 1024x768

Published site looks good on safari (mac) NOT good on firefox (mac)

Any person who knows how this comes?
site I'm talking about: www.dinarodrigues.com
fonts looks thicker in FF
shadow behind text isn't there in FF
How can I resolve this issues?

Shadows have been a problem for a while in Firefox.
Take a screenshot of your text with the shadow and drop the JPEG onto the page instead of the text.
I could live with the thickening in the font as it is easier to read.

Publish site looks doesn't look the same on a PC

I just upgraded to iWeb08. everything works great except that when i look at my website on a pc the text isn't lined up correctly. Looks great on a Mac but not on PC. Check it out

You're probably using a font that is not present on the PC. In this case your text is converted to a graphic and jumps out of line.
huh?
You should either use a font from the web-safe Mac/Windows list or convert your text into graphics in iWeb by typing it into a shape or adding a slight shadow.
double huh?
