biscuitrat 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 Urgh, I tried to insert a form in my site (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/), and it screwed up, so I took out the form and it remains the same. However, I checked it through the validator and no tags have been corrupted or whatever. And it looks perfect through IE so I'm not sure what happened. The worst part of it is that it looked just like the IE version before I went to stick the form in. If any of you manage to run through my mess of paragraph and div tags, I inserted the form into a div called col4. I'm hoping this is one of those temporary mistakes because most of the users who visit my site use Firefox. It makes me sad Screenies of the site (FF vs IE) Screenshot of the site in Firefox Screenshot of the bottom in Firefox Screenshot of the site in IE Screenshot of the bottom in IE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
truefusion 3 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 It could be the reason why it looks better in IE probably cause it's more bug-compliant, or the way it renders data. Although DIVs are used instead of tables, it might still render them the same way, but who knows. Try making a table version, and testing it out in Firefox and see if you get the same result?

biscuitrat 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 I usually don't like tables, but I'll check it out just the same - I'm desperate to get it working the right way again. Sometimes I wish the cPanel FTP let you save drafts instead of saving it as a totally different file. Sometimes I wish I think ahead of myself. This happened once before but it didn't stay that way. It's really weird. I even made a test page to see if I could find the error and get rid of it by removing the text and whatever. I'll probably have to remove all the the content and come back and write it in. Poo.Ahem...anyways, I'll get back to you on the table version (probably tomorrow).

biscuitrat 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 I fixed it! I took out all the content leaving only the divs and then put one part back in at a time. Now I know better than to go and mess it up right away. Thanks though, True! <3Now to get a mod to close this silly topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rosuto 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 >.> I do that all the time.. it's a pain really... You have to take everything out and put a bit back in until you find what's wrong. Congrates on making it work again though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyssen 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 Depending on what FTP software you use, you can have the option to 'rename' rather than 'overwrite' which means the old file will get called filename_old.html so that if something does go wrong, it's still there for you revert back to.
