How Different Browsers Render VB Code

02-21-2005, 02:01 AM

I know alot of you use FF and IE. Are they rendering your VB code differently?
For instance, I created my sig on FF, and 3Characters was centered and reads that way in FF but is on the left border in IE. Also, I added the special character "sm" at the end of "Staff" which reads as "?" in my IE.

isnt this just a case of how firefox and internet explorer treat html differently. The vbcode is converted to html before th browser gets it.

I made a new header for my forum, only to find it displays totally differently in IE than Firefox. It was made in FrontPage.

Just ealised I misread the original post thought it said bb code lol.

anyway I still beleive it is the same scenario it is upto the browser to interpret how it displays things and as some browsers do not follow the standards as stringent as others this causes incompatibilities and little anomolies like you have.
