In FF all looks good. At least all looks as I expected, bearing in mind
my limited graphic talent. But IE doesn't even show half the stuff.
Until you CTRL-A then ESC. Oh, it's in the source alright, but IE
doesn't want to render it straightaway. It has to be nudged into it.
Scrolling up and down does the trick too. I guess it's whats known in
the trade as "invalidating the view".
So which bit of my CSS can I change to trick IE into doing the right
thing right from the off?
Not a direct answer to your question, but:
Firstly, you have a defective doctype declaration. And on a related
point, your code is not quite HTML and not quite XHTML.
Secondly, I have no experience with ASP or whatever it is, but is there
a reason why the entire contents of your body element are wrapped with
the following oddity:
<form method="post" action="News.aspx" id="baseForm"
enctype="Multipart/Form-Data">
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE"
value="dDw1MzgxO3Q8O2w8aTw0Pjs+O2w8dDxwPGw8aW5uZXJodG1sOz47bDxOZXdzOz4+Ozs+Oz4+Oz4oiMNbXl78Q5entXdegWcSrroQBw=="
/>
</form>
Note that the you've closed the element twice, as well!
Thanks for your reply, I'm going to fix some of the points mentioned.
The enveloping form is on all my pages. Its a workaround to make sure that I can always add form elements without worrying if there's a container form for them, or worrying that there might be two forms.
But I only see one closing form tag. Where is the other? I'm puzzled because I have worked on that lately but I thought I checked it.
.
Thirdly, if you'd validated your CSS you'd have seen that there's 3
errors; there's also quite a few warnings.
Finally, and quite incidentally, I'd replace your NewsSumm_Title class
with H3 elements.
Cheers,
AGw.
