Skip to comments (13) Bad Coding or Bad Browser??

Same Code viewed with 2 different Browser.
This is one of my worst coding moment...hehe
I am not a big fan of firefox nor do i support IE.
I have been building website using IE as my default browser. I used to use netscape during the old days (hey, it was very popular back then) but drop it since i had bad experience using it.

Information
Webpage is XHTML 1.1 and CSS Valid. Checked by W3 Validator.

FireFox 1.07

http://images5.theimagehosting.com/firefox.1.png

Internet Explorer 6.0

Project Description
Simple Script that i have created used to search for the country with any of the 3 inputs (IP Address, Ip Number or Domain name). Comes also with 2 choice of indexing the database either in 8bit or 14bit. I have also included a database importer (which is simple to use as it is guided in steps mode) that convert the *.csv database and store it into mySQL. The database is also patched so that it could display the country flags as well. The country flags comes in either 2D or 3D.

Let's first clear the air and say that Firefox is rendering your page correctly as you coded it, and IE is actually "fixing" your page. While that's great news for IE users, for the rest of the world that uses compliant browsers... we will just have wonder what the hell is going on.

But post your code, perhaps we can fix it!

It would really help if you posted the (X)HTML/CSS code :D

Thanks, but I don't have any problem fixing the code above. (unless you want to put it up for discussion =), i could try to dig it up in the recycle bin as i already made some changes to the original copy to make it work. )

The fault lies in my stylesheet which some codes can only be displayed in IE. Some of the code for example, the change of color of the scrollbar is part of the visual basic code which firefox doesn't support it.

note - Read the last part where one of the developer created some appz to prevent users from viewing the webpage if their browser is not IE...lol

Here is another example,

CODE: HTML

<html>

<head><title></title></head>

<body>

<div width="40%" style="position=absolute; left:0%">

<table border="1" width="100%">

<tr><td>Here we are at 40%</td></tr>

</table>

</div>

<div width="60%" style="position=absolute; left:40%">

<table border="1" width="100%">

<tr><td>Here we are at 60%</td></tr>

</table>

</div>

</body>

</html>

Which result is displayed in IE and which is firefox?
Can you tell without rendering it on your each browser?

Result1

Result2

The Answer is the file name of the image.
This is one of my fault that causes the images not to shift properly.
Another fault that i have notice is the use <p></p>,
both spacing by default are totally different.

Dude, WTH is "position=absolute"?
I think you should also try to validate your CSS:

Sad but true

Lazy way of refusing to correct the code. You could add this.

CODE: PHP

<?php

$browsertype = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

$check = strpos($browsertype, "MSIE");

if($check)

    echo "You may continue viewing the page";

else

    echo "GoodBye. Come back and view us with IE Browser";

?>
