recips and firefox

DarkEmber · 2004-12-10, 12:21 PM

I did a search so apologize in advance for a duplicate.....

I noticed that the recips in firefox look funny, i.e. the individual links are underlined instead of just the text, stuff like that. Is this due to them being old, or firefox, or just the fact that I changed that a:link tag? Any hints? I assumed they should look the same in any browser or at least thats what would be optimal. I didn't want to submit anything new before figuring out where my issue was.

Thanks in advance.

An example would be most helpful

DarkEmber · 2004-12-10, 01:46 PM

on the page

http://youngamateurcams/neighborcamgirls/

this is what I see:

IE:

Firefox:

the image quality is reduced (for faster loading) but shows the "link lines" present in firefox that aren't in IE.

Sorry I didn't use a page w/your recip cleo but http://camtagious.com/free/livecamhousewives/ is a work in progress that has your recip which does add lines in firefox that aren't there in IE.

I could just be a coding idiot as I'm new and hadn't built anything recently. With the new wave of firefox users everyday I started comparing the pages in both and this popped up.

same problem here

i think some link list owners just don't have firefox compatible recips

whew, I'm just glad not to be the only one.....

If I figure anything out Ill pass it on.

From the looks of it, Firefox is changing the color of the text on the links, but using the default link color for the underline, which seems sorta stupid.

I was looking up some info, looks like there are some inline tags that are not going to be compatable

when I find something definative I'll link it. Just finding bits and pieces atm.

by using the doctype:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Frameset//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/frameset.dtd">

or no doctype defined it looks the same in both browsers. Someone else can test that and verify what I saw.

That original site that I linked has the changed doctype now to see it .

I'm sure there are some HTML wizards that can speak to the effects of using this particular doctype over others. I know I'm curious

I feel your pain.

I'm a Mac user and its default browser is Safari. Safari uses the KHtml engine which is different then the Gecko engine that Firefox uses but renders about the same.

Actually it is IE that seems to render different then all the other browsers as all the others seem to render about the same as Firefox or Safari. I guess Micro$oft wants us to use the browser that renders pages their way.

Here are four examples of what Mac IE and Safari does to your stuff and mine.
