[url]http://www.joenetwork.de/index.htm[/url] in Internet Explorer looks great. [url]http://www.joenetwork.de/index.htm[/url] in Firefox, looks similiar but the link “See all items” of the top right div is way to the left.
It appears that FireFox doesn't like it when there are nested div's. When the cgi file prints out the marquee text it also prints out a div inside of the marquee. When that happens it seems to end both div's at the first </div> insteading of only ending one of them. So if the div's that are printed out inside of the marquee were changed to span tags the problem seems to go away. So if you can change that it would a solution. Except then you seem to have another problem with the text being below the border in FireFox. FireFox seems to put an extra line break after that stuff is printed out from the cgi file. So it looks like you have 3 <br />'s when you only have 2. Kinda weird.
@ray326Jun 20.2006 — #Ok I see it now. Put that link inside the RSS div that you've positioned absolutely. Right now it's out of any div and so it's postioned in the natural flow.
@ray326Jun 22.2006 — #No, it doesn't seem to be. If I view the "generated" source in Fx I see [code=html] <div class="RSSnews"> <p class="defaultTextC"><b>joenetwork news</b> <br> <br> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.joachimheimfeld.de/cgi-bin/outputrss.cgi?id=1246032644662c398e808"></script></p><marquee scrollamount="2" scrolldelay="30" style="background: rgb(0, 0, 0) none repeat scroll 0%; width: 99px; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" font-family:verdana="" arial="" helvetica="" sans-serif;font-size:10px;color:#ffffff=""><a href="http://www.joenetwork.de/radio/" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Redefining joenetwork radio: The 25% Radio</a> + + + <a href="http://www.joenetwork.de/radio/index2.htm" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">joenetwork radio talks to WWF</a> + + + <a href="http://www.joenetwork.de/blog/galleries/runrunrun/" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Bern Runs Today (Grand Prix von Bern)</a></marquee></div>
<br> <br> <a href="javascript://" onclick="FP_openNewWindow('250', '200', false, false, true, false, true, true, 'rssnews', 'more/rssnews.htm')"> See all Items</a> [/code] Also that href="javascript://" is pretty funky and probably should be "#" with a return false appended to the onclick value.
@Joachim_JoeauthorJun 22.2006 — #I see now! So, the .cgi script creates it's own div. I will remove the div then. The problem I have is, that I can't edit that script. It's a hosted script from my host.
Hi Jay, I used span and a reference to the CSS. It works! Now it looks much better. Could you see if you get the same results? The spacing looks better in firefox now and more squashed in IE. Any tips how to make it look the same in both?
When I use an extra <br /> the text will go over the border in the firefox, but it will look better in IE. So it's back and forth but at least the text is not at top left, as it was when I was using the <divs>!!
