Cross browser compatibility – IE

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 07.2012

Hi there,

I developed for weeks and tested my work in all major browsers (mozila, chrome, opera, safari) except IE which I somehow managed to ignore until now.

I was completely shocked today when I saw how completely off the whole site looks in IE while it looks perfectly well in the other browsers…

Here’s the URL to the website: [url]http://www.paultimoce.net/Trendiac/[/url]

Do you have any idea why this is happening? Any quick fix?

@tracknutJul 07.2012 — Could be. Here's the validation output of your site... 127 errors. Could be most of them are because of your missing doctype on the first line. IE is much more picky about errors than the other browsers are, so start by fixing the doctype line, there's a chance that's all you need to do.

@paultimoceauthorJul 07.2012 — My doctype line is <!DOCTYPE html> which should be alright in IE...

@paultimoceauthorJul 08.2012 — Alright... It was indeed the doctype declaration... I changed the wrong page's doctype and this is why I actually panicked a bit... Thank you for your input!!
