Display Problems in IE7 and Firefox

Hi I have just moved my store to an online ISP and have been using IE6. Everything seemed to be great (on my system) until a few users using Firefox and IE7 have complained that the store doesn't display properly. I am using Zen Cart 1.3.8a.

Has anyone come across any problems like this, and if so is there a fix or some additional css code for these browsers?

Many thanks
Scott

Re: Display Problems in IE7 and Firefox

You are using two stylesheets

stylesheet.css and stylesheetnew.css

both of these stylesheets appear to contain the same information You don't need both of them

I'd compare the two and combine them into just one stylesheet.css and then delete stylesheetnew.css

Re: Display Problems in IE7 and Firefox

First thing: Zencart loads all stylesheets with the .css extension that are in the current template's css folder, so you have two fighting each other. Rename the one to stylesheet.old.

Then, adding the part in red should fix the only problems I see:

#navBreadCrumb {
padding: 0.5em 0.5em;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 0.95em;
font-weight: bold;
margin-top: 2em;
}

Re: Display Problems in IE7 and Firefox

Awesome - thanks guys much appreciated.

the css change has made a big difference!

The only other problem is that for some reason the 100% height setting I had in doesnt seem to work any more - it was perfect in IE6!

Thanks again

Scott

Re: Display Problems in IE7 and Firefox

Try removing the height definition

#mainWrapper {
background-color: #ffffff;
height: 100%;
text-align: left;
width: 900px;
vertical-align: top;
border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
}
