I have few buttons on my jsp page and I am using the style as :
*.buttonblue {
background-color: #003366;
border-color: #99CCFF;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;
font-size: 8pt;
font-weight: bold;
height: 20px;
display:inline;
line-height: 1.2;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 2px;
}*
In Firefox the buttons are bit smaller than IE6.
I can not define the size of buttons as the caption changes the button size changes accordingly.
I tried with width:auto but no success. Also, with overflow:visible the buttons in IE becomes bit smaller.
Please help.
IE has a bug with button padding, you may be experiencing this. Try something like this:
input.button {
padding: 0 .25em;
width: 0; /* IE table-cell margin fix */
overflow: visible;
}
input.button[class] { /* IE ignores [class] */
width: auto; /* cancel margin fix for other browsers */
}
Note: if your buttons become even smaller in IE after applying this fix, make sure you are not in quirks mode. In IE's quirks mode the widths of objects are calculated differently than in standards mode, making everything a bit smaller (for items with a specified width). Best to always use standards mode if you expect consistent cross-browser results (even though IE's standards mode isn't that good, it's still way more standard than quirks mode).
Either use Conditional Comments :
Ex:
<!--[if IE 6]>
Special instructions for IE 6 here
<![endif]-->
Or set custom width for input only read by IE like this :
.buttonblue {
background-color: #003366;
border-color: #99CCFF;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;
font-size: 8pt;
font-weight: bold;
height: 20px;
display:inline;
line-height: 1.2;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 2px;
width: 100px; /* Read by FF */
#width:100px; /* Read by IE*/
}
Now you can tweak them accordingly
A button is rendered however the browser decides. You will need to use an image and set it up to work like a button if you want it to look that same in all browsers.

Here my <input> with has a height of 10px; has given a padding of 10px;, I know it is not a right way of giving style. But still, it's working perfectly in Chrome, IE and Safari but it is an another story when it came to Firefox it crops my placeholder.why.?
I know different browsers have their different rendering methods but can anyone point me the exact reason behind this and is there a way I can solve this without changing the height, padding or font size(it should not be less than 14px).?
Please check if it works for you
input {
padding: 10px;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: normal;
width: 100%;
line-height: 18px;
height: auto;
}
They count height and padding differently, try this.
Use only height or only padding. Here I add height and only x padding
input {
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: normal;
width: 100%;
height: 30px;
padding: 0 10px;
}
I have a problem trying to make a search button looking fine on firefox. It's an input submit made with an iconic font, a white background and a border-radius like this:
display: block;
width: 60px;
height: 60px;
line-height: 60px !important;
padding: 0;
background: white;
border: 0;
border-radius: 30px;
-moz-border-radius: 30px;
-webkit-border-radius: 30px;
-khtml-border-radius: 30px;
font-family: 'iconic';
color: #bad104;
font-size: 5em;
It must look like this (chrome and IE renders perfectly my code) : http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/6590/kogy.png
But when i use the same code on firefox, here is what I get: http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/953/jms4.jpg
I looked on dom inspector on both browsers, and when i look at "calculated values", it doesn't renders the same thing on chrome (line-height: 60px) and firefox (line-height: 67px).
Everything I've tried from now is a fail :/ I hope you guys will have some help for me :)
Thanks !
You shouldn't define a unit of measurement with line-height, this is so that the spacing is relative to the font size. In your example
line-height: 60px;
should be
line-height: 1;
or
line height: 100%;
as you are specifying that you want it to be the same height as the font.
Button line-height in FF is hardcoded as line-height: normal !important; meaning that even a user defined line-height: xxx !important will not override it.

I trying to style background colour of hyperlink button "" and it works fine on Chrome, IE9, Firefox etc except IE 8. After further investigation i found that IE8 does not support css like button:not(.t-button) and it breaks
I wanted to know if i need to add a different css for IE 8 on a different file or i can update the syntax so it does not break for IE 8.
button:not(.t-button), .btn, a.btn, input[type="button"], input[type="submit"] {
display: inline-block;
padding: 0px 10px;
border: none;
margin: 6px 0 0;
height: 24px;
background-color: rgb(64,141,198);
font-family: 'Arial' ,sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 1em; /* 12 */
line-height: 2em;
color: rgb(255,255,255);
cursor: pointer;
box-shadow: none;
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
Here is the jsFiddle like http://jsfiddle.net/786wF/
Any help will be highly appreciated.

First :not pseudo selector is NOT supported
More info :
http://kimblim.dk/css-tests/selectors/
http://caniuse.com/#search=%3Anot
Second, your html is NOT valid, putting div inside anchors
Replace your inner DIV with SPAN
IE will apreciate
Third : jsfiddle does NOT support IE < 8
your code structure is not valid in w3c validator because you put your div inside an element.try changing your div into other element like span.and do not use the:not pseudo element
I have a minor CSS problem, but I'm having trouble fixing it because I don't have any computer handy with IE7 installed...
In IE8, Chrome, FF, etc. I see this (correctly):
but IE7 gives me this:
the HTML code follows:
<div id="hub">
<div class="title highlight">Faster, Cheaper, Better</div>
<p>PNMS...
the relevant CSS code follows:
#hub {} /* literally nothing */
#hub div.title {
font-size: 4em;
font-style: italic;
font-variant: small-caps;
float: left;
margin: 5px 0px 20px 0px;
width: 940px; /* same as parent container */
}
.highlight { color: #ff6633;}
p {
text-indent: 30px;
font-size: 1.3em;
line-height: 1.1em;
letter-spacing: 1px;
margin: 5px;
}
Based on visitor traffic, I need my site to be compatible with IE7 (thankfully NOT IE6). But again, guessing blindly and then running browsershots.org is not a very efficient manner.
Can someone help? Thank you.
Found this somewhere, it may help:
CSS Double padding IE7 Fix
"Nothing is more annoying than finishing a web design, having it dispay just the way you like it in your standards compliant browser (cough download Firefox) only to remember to check it in IE and find it a garbled mess. Today I came across a rather annoying CSS bug in IE7. IE7 doubles the top padding on my navigation menu."
CSS Code
#nav {
clear: left;
padding: 16px 0 0 30px;
}
"And the fix…
Just add display: inline-block to the div with double padding. That’s it… I know, it’s ridiculous."
#nav {
clear: left;
display: inline-block;
padding: 16px 0 0 30px;
}
Another alternative is the parent of the Div which is not displaying correct add the margin: 0 in CSS for it.
Found it. The CSS body tag had a line-height: 18px;
For some reason known only to Microsoft, out of IE7, IE8, IE9, Firefox 3.5~6, and Chrome, only IE7 honored that instruction for a deeply nested div 400 lines further down the CSS sheet.
I've encountered an oddity.
On one of our QA tester's boxes, there is an HTML check box that displays very large under Firefox and Chrome, but in IE, it shows up in its default size. On my box and others, the checkbox displays as is typical.
Are there any Windows desktop display settings that would affect the size that checkboxes are rendered in Firefox and Chrome? Is there anything in CSS to beware of?
Here's the combined CSS that affects the control:
various selectors {
display: inline;
margin-top: -1px;
width: 20px;
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
font-size: 10pt;
height: 22px;
line-height: 20px;
border: 1px solid #6d6d6d;
padding-left: 3px;
padding-top: 3px;
vertical-align: middle;
}
More simply put, avoid using pt units in CSS, as they may be interpreted differently. Stick to using px units for as much as you can. So for various selectors, set font-size: 10px;
Does the QA test box machine have the font set to a different default size in the browser? Set the font size in Pixels of the checkbox to confirm.
