Why is FireFox doing this to my WordPress blog?

dan_Vt · Apr 12, 2007

When you go to my vtseo blog (go to the main page and click on vtseo blog at the bottom of the main menu) the post appears shifted down to the level where the content on the left ends, which isn't making sense to me...especially when if you just hit refresh it appears fine. IE looks as it should.

I have clear:both in the css file, so it isn't that.

Help is appreciated, rep rewarded for fix.

click VTSEO blog.

I have had a look and it does not appear out of place for me in firefox, it looks the same in IE and Firefox, you might need to clear your cache and try again

Try making the width of either left content or right content a few pixels smaller. I think they might be overlapping or something.

Thanks, I'll give that a try tonight.

Totally removed table and adjusted with css, seems to be working. Thanks.

Update:

Ugh...nope, not working.

can you provide a screen shot please, as it is hard for me to help as in my eyes it looks the same in both browsers

I got that the first time I viewed.
I then checked in IEtab, and it was fine.
Went back to Firefox proper and it worked fine.

Viewed in Firefox 2x on Windows XP (1024*768)

Strange bug - I'm also getting the error page on first pageload ...

There are some errors in your CSS stylesheet - missing values in the form and textarea classes, missing semicolons in the u, nu and t classes. In the HTML you have a mix of xhtml-style markup (i.e. <br />) in an HTML 4.01 Transitional document AND you're throwing the browsers into quirks mode rendering by using the "half" doctype.

Wouldn't hurt to clean up as much of that as you can. Or, for that matter, try using the full doctype:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">)

...to see if pushing the browsers into standards-compliant mode helps.

That's what happens when you buy a template from template monster.

I'll give it a try.

Matt, thanks for taking the time to upload that....guess I could have.

Very strange, I am not getting that, not even on my first view, it is all perfectly inline for me, template monster is a pain sometimes but you can useally always find the same template on the web to try before you pay
