I'm trying to get this menu working with IE (mainly 9+ atm) and am having trouble. There seems to be some weird padding issue that I can't seem to track down. Any ideas?
Here is the JS Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Ztzn6/
IE Verion:
Chrome Version:
Add vertical-align: top; to your second rule group (the one with display: inline-block). You're running into some fun rules about how line-boxes and inline elements work, IE seems to be using a different default behavior.

I have 2 display rules that i can't get to work
I can't use the display property with IE version < 10, i'm using this code:
Comments(<fb:comments-count href="http://mypage"/></fb:comments-count>)
That results in:
Comments(<fb:comments-count href="http://mypage" fb-xfbml-state="rendered" class=" fb_comments_count_zero">
<span class="fb_comments_count">
10
</span>
</fb:comments-count>)
With this css:
.fb_comments_count {
display: inline;
}
.fb_comments_count_zero {
display: inline;
}
It displays:
Comments(
10
)
instead of
Comments(10)
I tried also changing
display:inline
to
display:inline-block
But it's not working.
The other issue i'm having is when i use display:none. In fact, IE<10 doesn't hide what i'm styling, but IE10, chrome, opera and firefox don't have that problem.
How can i fix this?
P.S. I prefer not to use JavaScript, because i want my site to look good even if javascript is disabled.
You're using dashes instead of underscores in your CSS.
.fb-comments-count {
display: inline;
}
Try changing it to:
.fb_comments_count {
display: inline;
}
Internet Explorer will not style any element it is not aware of. That is why there is a HTML5 shim javascript; to inform IE of the new HTML5 elements (insert them into the DOM). Other browsers won't have this issue.
Im not entirely sure how FBML gets rendered in the end, but older IEs don't recognize custom tags and won't apply css to them, so this might be the issue. You need to "register" the tags to the IE.
Also you should avoid the linebreaks in your span:
<span class="fb_comments_count">10</span>
this already might fix your first problem, if not try to apply white-space:nowrap;.
ie has always had a problem with braking lines where it should not try adding this to your css
white-space:nowrap;
If that does not work then please tell me what happens.
I have had these problems before with ie so it not just you.
also try wrapping your fb tag in a p tag then add a style of choice to the p tag.
Site in question:
http://www.sedulity.tk/
Site using Chrome 19 dev:
Site using IE9:
as you can see on the homepage using IE it seems like it not recognizing the height of the DIV of each picture, whereas on chrome and firefox there is no issue.
I think this is probably my fault, won't blame IE for it...but I can't figure it out :|
In your css folder there is a css file ie7style.css and it's being used for ie (I've tested in ie8) and it has a class (.item-image) that is
.item-image{
height:142px;
}
Try to fix it or just remove it.
Css file: http://www.sedulity.tk/wp-content/themes/DeepFocus/css/ie7style.css
See in this developer Tool screenshot I've removed the css entry height:142px from class (.item-image) from file ie7style.css
After that (without .item-image{height:142px} in file ie7style.css) see the page in ie8
Try adding a height to the .item
CSS
#portfolio-items .item {
height:500px;
}
you might wanna check this article for a cross-browser inline-block that doesn't overlap. your case is most likely caused by the "baseline", where the next set of elements base their tops on the last elements' baseline (which would be somewhere in the middle of the element).
Just finishing up a site and having an issue with position: fixed on IE7. I've Googled it and tried different Doctypes but the fixed area is still moving out of position on IE7.
I've not got IE7 but a client staffer has it and I can see the issue using an online IE renderer/tester.
I've removed the .htaccess from the test site so you can see the site/code.

Any advise or help would be appreciated.
There is a <div> and an <ul> element which both have id="logo-nav". They've both set position:fixed and some other properties. I think this is the main problem. Remove the duplicate ID, set position:fixed only for the <div> element and then we can investigate the issue (or the problem should disappear at best).
If you have newer version of Internet Explorer, you may emulate IE7 by clicking the Compatibility View button or choosing IE7 document mode in Developer Tools.
edit: I noticed that you haven't set any left property for #logo-nav. I don't know why IE7 computes the default position other way than all other browsers, but simply adding #logo-nav { left: 225px } works for me.
Try this in your css:
* html idorclasshere {
position: absolute;
}
Note: replace "idorclasshere" with your, well, ID or Class of the non-responding div (don't worry, due to the asterisk, other browsers aside from IE won't see it, add it in conjunction to your "position:fixed" style).
I m using a ruby code in select list i need 15px gap from left so i used a padding left="15px" its working fine in firefox but its not working ie and safari so i want to use text-indent ="15px" its working fine i safari and ie but not in firefox please any one help me to resolve this problem,,
padding left is working fine in textfeild but why it giving problem in ie and safari ...
Code:
<% #sex = [['male', '0'],['female', '1'], ['other', '2']] %>
<%= select_tag :sex, options_for_select(#sex), :style=>"width:100px; height:30px;padding-left:15px;vertical-align:middle;" %>
Thanks
select elements are very difficult to style consistently cross-browser, and even worse cross-platform (they're very different-looking things on Windows and MacOS X for instance).
However, assuming the document is in standards mode, I've been able to get a consistent result across IE8, Chrome and Firefox on Windows using this code:
select { padding-left: 15px; }
IE7 falls back to the default styling (i.e. no padding), if you can live with that.
Another option might be to wrap the <select> in another element (e.g. a <span>) and apply some styling to that. That would indent the entire element, rather than it's contents though.
I've run into a weird quirk. The website I'm building for Escondido Arts Gallery has all of it's text in each element left-aligned in firefox and IE, but for some reason everything is center aligned in Safari. Is there one simple css or html fix I can do to fix this, or am I going to have to 'text-align: left' every element?
No surprise there:
<body tracingsrc="../../non assets/web2.jpg" tracingopacity="30" align="center">
Just get rid of the proprietary attributes (align="center" especially), and your problem is solved.
There is something wrong with the CSS (or there's an unclosed html tag). The center align property must be cascading from some other element because it's not only safari/chrome (which also uses webkit) but also opera that shows the things center aligned, and both safari/chrome and opera are more standards compliant than ie and even firefox.
* { text-align: left; }
If things are cascading properly this should conceptually be enough:
html, body { text-align: left; }
Depends on why it is left-aligned. If it's simply the browsers applying different defaults, you can do as greyfade says to make all tags default to left-align in all browsers.
If the problem is bugs in the browsers CSS implementations, then you may have to trace down why the browsers disagree, and find some workaround to that.
Specifying a strict rather than transitional doctype may also help in getting more uniform behavior from the browsers (and let's be honest here, can we really claim to still be "transitioning" to HTML4.01 or XHTML1.0? Both standards have been out for close to a decade.)
