Topic: internet explorer/ firefox doing different things

Hi There,

Thanks for this wonderful software.

Can someone help me please. I have a board installed at

http://www.lettertogod.net/letters/index.php

it looks the way I want it to in Firefox but In Internet explorer the fonts are different and gaps appear in navigation menu.

all help is appreciated as this one is a bit beyond me.

My board is not live yet so the messages there are just tests etc


Thanks

The Helper

Re: internet explorer/ firefox doing different things

I would also be interested in knowing how to remove the links at the top of the forum so only the posters title appears

as in   


    * Index Troubleshooting internet explorer/ firefox doing different things

I would like it to just show  explorer / firefox doing different things  not the index trouble shotting bit

I hope this is clear

many thanks

Re: internet explorer/ firefox doing different things

The answer to the first question is that in your stylesheet you have set the font-size for internet explorer to 65% which is the equivelant of 10px. If you want 15px like Firefox then I think 93.75% should do it.

As for the gaps in the menu bar, there are items missing as compared to the whats in the source so it would depend on what method you used to hide them. It looks to me like you just removed the link text in the language file. Thats no good because the items have margins etc which could still show as space even if there is no text. You can disable the rules item in the menu through admin/options. As for the userlist item, try li#navuserlist {display: none}
