Confusing discrepancy between IE and Firefox

dartsfan

Hi,

I've noticed a discrepancy in the displaying of a page between IE, Firefox and Chrome that I cannot figure out a solution to.
Please take a look at the homepage of the following site:

The footer of this page displays fine in Firefox and Chrome but not IE...what may be causing this?

Thanks.

styles. ie is a boll0cks. you need to turn off all styles in your css before applying your footer style. there are loads of tutorials on the net how to do this.

On my PC, Firefox and Chrome display the page fine - IE6 doesn't (obviously) but on my other PC, IE8 displays it correctly. Don't worry about it, it's coded fine - I suggest you add a bit of code to tell the person it's best viewed in FF or Chrome when they are using IE6 - just like Facebook does.

I think IE6 is starting footer from the right side of contentText because it's overflowing down from the content div.
If you stick clear: both; into your #footer style it should fix it.

This did the trick, thanks a lot!

The sooner IE6 dies the better. A nightmare to do anything beyond the most basic with css.

Perhaps just redirect all request from IE6 browsers, to the windows upgrade site (Or even better an alternative browser like FF)

Small suggestion : force an appropriate min-width so that you don't get the unexpected wrapping that's currently happening.
