3 coding questions

Ringr · 07-12-2005, 06:31 AM

I need help with these 3 things on my forums pretty urgently.
My forum can be found here for any references to the coding that you might need.

Problem #1:
My left table borders are messy in FireFox.

This happens when the browser window is maximized.

Yet when you make the browser window's size smaller, it starts to look fine - see:

Why is the left table side doing that on a maximized window and how can I fix this?

Problem #2:
This is how the top table looks in FireFox (it looks flawless and perfect):

And here is IE:

How can I fix this so IE doesn't have those little 1-pixel spaced things on the bottom corners? (note it is also doing this on the other bottom "rounded tables" on the board index).

Problem #3:
In FireFox (below) the category name shows up normal height:

However, in IE for some reason it gaps itself out:

Why is it doing this, can it be fixed?

Help is greatly greatly appreciated!

Might anyone have ideas?
The three things above are kind of what keeps holding me back from furthly developing my forum.

Try validating your code here. It's hard to tell without the codes, sorry.

Hm, I'm on Firefox and it seems to load fine for me.

I'm on an 800x600 19inch monitor.

Do you have an eyesite problem? That's HUGE.

Ringr · 07-13-2005, 05:20 PM

Meh, the validator didn't say too much TBH, I looked over what it gave me but most of it was "no alt tag found in image code". I didn't really see anything that would make the difference for how it is acting.

I give up. No matter what I do, nothing works.

The following code is accurate:

Code:

<table width="594" height="150" border="0" cellpadding="00" cellspacing="00">
  <tr>
    <td width="29" height="29"><img src="forums/style_images/hlforums/slices_01.gif" width="29" height="29"></td>
    <td width="100%" height="29" background="forums/style_images/hlforums/slices_02.gif"></td>
    <td width="20" height="29"><img src="forums/style_images/hlforums/slices_04.gif" width="20" height="29"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="29" height="100%" background="forums/slices_05.gif"></td>
    <td width="100%" height="100%" valign="top" bgcolor="#4E4C45" class="cparea"> 
      <font face="Verdana" size="2" color="#C1AD3E"><u>Control Panel</u></font></b><br>

Okay, now like I said, the code above is 100% in tact.
I performed a test on it by leaving out Invision Power Board's CSS and believe it or not it performed 100% good and there were no little "spacers" in the bottom table borders like you see above.

So that means that IPB's CSS is effecting it.
I looked over the CSS and I could find nothing that I *thought* would cause this.

So: is there anyone willing to look at the CSS to double check for me?
Or: is there any way I can have something (like the table above) in a page that is ran by CSS but not apply ANY of the CSS to that table?

Amnezia · 07-14-2005, 06:50 PM

what does the CSS look like?

Segate · 07-14-2005, 07:01 PM

most of problems about looking are related with css. Check Css files.

Ringr · 07-14-2005, 08:13 PM

Here is a link to the CSS.

I would really appreciate it if some of you guys could maybe try and find out why it keeps doing this to the bottom table corner images in IE.
