Anybody can help me with this?

Saturday, January 8, 2005 by joeKnowledge | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hi
I was wondering if anyone can give a hand here.
I noticed that my site renders differently on some peoples computers and I just want to narrow down what it is.
I am thinking it has something to do with screen resolution or the fact that I am not using style sheets or some typical header html text at the top of the html file on my webpages.

Anyway, the link is below. Anyone having problems with the iste rendering large text or the images are not aligned properly?

Looks fine to me I maximized the window so I wouldn't have to scroll sideways. I'm on IE6 SP2, 1280x1024.

No alignment problems in Firefox at 1280x1024. Site is not very readable though - maybe because I'm using a dark skin?


There's a small crop of the page to show what I mean. Hope that's helpful.

Took a minute to load, but everything looks fine here.
Firefox, XP HE SP2 1024x768 32bit color. I'm also using a dark skin, but I don't think I've ever seen that effect the display of a page.

It looks like you haven't specified the page's background color. If you don't, the browser will use the background color specified in your current Windows theme.

Hmmm... I wonder why it did what it did on Fuzzy's screen? I have the body color tag in there "bgcolor=white"

Fuzzy, when you get a chance, can you look at my HTML code, or anyone for that matter.

I have designed websites before but never had so many different reactions to the same code on different computers. There must be something I am missing.


What is even funnier is that one some sites I can't change the text size no matter what I do, but on mine I can. I am thinkingits because of my lack of a style sheet.

Anyway, I am planning to make the site more customizable using style sheets and stuff like that. I just thought this was strange for EI to act this way. Maybe they didn't update to IE6? All the other settings were the same.
