Is there anyway I can block certain broswers?
 
I know it sounds crazy, but my site doesnt just work with firefox :mad:

so as a short term solver I would like to know if there was a code to block it of and send it to a click site direct.
I know you can block of certain languages, but wondering if the same could be done for browsers.

any help will be truely greeted well and will be remembed for the future.

remove position: absolute; and z-index: 1; left: 144px;

look in your code, you are forcing positions and layering across cells.

for example, look at models.html

Code:

<td colspan="32" background="images/template_46.jpg" width="610" height=914>
                <div style="border-style:solid; border-width:1px; position: absolute; width: 444px; height: 118px; z-index: 1; left: 144px; top: 262px; padding-left:4px; padding-right:4px; padding-top:1px; padding-bottom:1px" id="layer1">
                        &nbsp;<p>
                        <b>

                        <font face="Trebuchet MS" color="#FFFFFF">
                        <img border="0" src="models%20small/trial.gif" width="28" height="11">
                        - Special offer membership for a </font></b></p>

Try removing

Code:

position: absolute; and z-index: 1; left: 144px; top: 262px;
and

add center tag to your cell statement:

Code:

<td align="center" colspan="32" background="images/template_46.jpg" width="610" height=914>

If you need more space above it add margin: 40 or some shit like that to the style=" statement


You're ont he right track with using div tags but you might also want to consider that firefox doesnt always read some styles properly. If you need something centered use align="center" in the cell the content appears in. much easier and cross browser readable.

z-index and position tags work, but they're tricky as fuck to use for non-ms browser uses.

shit, im looking the code over, you gotta stop letting programs generate code.

This is a mess and 70% of thatc ode could be eradicated and still have the same look of the site.

That's what I was just about to say. ImageReady tends to make a severe mess of the code. Also scotty, you may want to think about switching to a more Dynamic site layout (even CSS) instead of a Fixed position layout. Less browser problems that way. :thumbsup

Most likely. I use Dreamweaver, so I can't say for sure if Frontpage is to blame (but I would think so).

scottybuzz 07-25-2006 05:23 AM

by the way thanks for that tip work like a treat

Frontpage actually does a better job at being compliant with code. With anything though, it's got to be edited by hand in HTML view and cleaned by hand.

Oh, I agree with that completely. Just about everything I do goes through UltraEdit32 for manual cleaning and modification before it gets uploaded. :thumbsup

It's still a pain in the ass (IMHO), but it's fairly robust and I've used it from day one so I'm pretty much used to it.

problems can be solve.. if you know CSS and HTML well... i always preview my designs in firefox and IE as well .. i admit, i find it diffult to fix it in both browsers and its time consuming... its worth trying... and when you get it done.. satisfying.. :thumbsup

blocking a standards compliant browser because you can't code properly is kinda stupid
