>>Page is all #@+!$& in Firefox

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 05.2006

I have developed a site and is being tested on my server. The site renders fine in IE, but not in Firefox especially this page [url]http://www.amodpuranik.com/orc/academia.html[/url]

I have

[code=html]<td colspan=”2″ and rowspan=”2″>[/code]

and a table inside…is that the source of all problem ?

Thanks in advance

@drhowarddrfineFeb 05.2006 — Your problem is you used an incomplete doctype so IE is in quirks mode. So your problem is you designed to quirks and to IE but tried to use xhtml which never runs in quirks. This is another example of why you should always test in Firefox first, then adjust for buggy IE.

@johnevaFeb 05.2006 — Why have you used XHTML and then not keep to the rules of XHTML.

Your not closing tags that should be closed.

Your not using the alt attribute.

and you using attributes that should not be used.

Also using tables for layout is a bad idea anyways.

You have got styles in your coding and your even using an external styles sheet.

Your doc type is incomplete as said by drhowarddrfine.

Get your code valid as said by welsh.

@welshFeb 05.2006 — people design to IE faults and then test in a another browser and assume its the other browsers fault. But in reality its their fault for designing in IE and not in a browser that plays by the rules.
