Firefox vs. IE

When I go to upload my design to the web I have a problem....my design looks totally different (from the looks of fonts to the images being displayed in the tables) in firefox than it does in IE. Does anyone know what I need to do to make my design look the same in both browsers?

Re: Firefox vs. IE

First, make it look just right in Firefox - that follows web standards much more closely, and has fewer bugs. Then add tweaks if necessary for IE.

Often, differences between FF & IE are due to different treatment of errors, so validating your CSS and HTML with the w3c validator (google it) will probably reduce the differences.

A link to your site would allow us to make some specific recommendations.

Re: Firefox vs. IE

I agree. Always test your website in Firefox and then when you're done test it in IE. If there are any problems in IE there is usually a work around for bugs in IE.

Re: Firefox vs. IE

I love your template. Is that publicly available, and if not where did you get it developed?

Re: Firefox vs. IE

Thanks! I built it from scratch. I do plan to develop a generic version of it for the downloads section since there is nothing remotely similar already available, but that will have to wait until we have finished getting the site fully functioning and populated with all our products.

I hope that you made a mistake in posting this because if you didn't, I will have our legal department contact you. You're in no way associated with Clevershoppers.com so I am not sure what exactly your intentions are here.

Re: Firefox vs. IE
