• Noticed some templates do not render acurately in one browser or the other. Can these templates be made to work in both browsers?
    Thanks, knotty

    Ok, I just went and checked. In IE these are fine from alexorg: bluedot, chocolate, czchia, simpleton. These do not render in Mozilla correctly. They are fixed width templates and the menu bar is empty in Mozilla.
    Thanks! knotty

    They probably aren’t valid. Check the XHTML at https://validator.w3.org/ . Once that’s been validated, you’ll be able to validate the CSS at https://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ . If the sites are 100% valid, they should display fine in Mozilla and 99.5% of the time in IE.

    Thanks very much alphaoide and manmanx. I Googled browsers and they say IE is still by far the most popular, so I guess I best optimize so it works in both.
    Tomorrow, I’ll play with those settings.

    I’m not so sure. My web stats say I’m getting 70% Mozilla. Not to mention that IE is lousy and full of security holes. But yes, total compatibility is the best way to go.

    Mozilla is 70% ? wow! I could have read outdated data, about a year or two old. I’m not surprized, since IE has been having problems maybe the numbers could have gone that high.
    Luckily, though most of the templates like the default, works fine in both.

    Don’t get it wrong. 70% Mozzila is macmanx’s website visitor. For all internet user, I believe, over 70% still use IE

    True to the point, Alphaoide, but they will soon turn.

    nice upward trend of Mozilla usage ?? Hopefully the release of FF1.0 will get a few more people to change
