still working on the site, i ran into another problem again
ive added a from inside a table row where visitors can add their name, which will be stored in a DB. well, that doesnt really matter. what does matter is that firefox and opera are both showing the page fine, while it is messed up in IE. seems like internet explorer is expanding the table row for some reasong, totally unnecessary because it has room enough.

in firefox/opera

IE


so if you know any way to fix this (another ) cross browser problem please let me know

aw cmon, how about putting it onto an iframe with no scrolling and a transparant background -however i hate using iframes- will that work?

[d7x]

try setting the max-height for it with CSS, that may work...

[Av-]

[d7x]

hmm, well if u added the image to the css code, you could do

background-repeat: no-repeat;

to it, that should solve it i believe, cause in that html and css could i see no url for the image or anything

[Av-]

now there is a big black gap under it :S

[d7x]

hmm, try taking out anything that would space it, in ur html code if you have any, ill look more into this when i get home...

[Av-]

theers nothing that could possibly space it and if theer would be it would, there would be a gap in firefox and opera too

well, thanks for all your help so far

[d7x]

hmm, could i get a link to the site? or is it just local? and show me ur source code now with what you edited again...

[Av-]

it is on local, and i havent editted anything since my last code, i tried to put it into an iframe but that doesnt look too good either, and allowtransparency doesnt even work in both firefox and opera, so thats not an option.
:(

[d7x]

umm have you tried changeing the table heights? in the code i see some height in it, maybe that?

[Av-]

yup...
i think i tried everything :(

[d7x]

dang.... well ima outta ideas right now... hmm, would it be possible if i could get the files? so i could try working on it?

[Av-]

sure, i know i can trust you
do you want me to mail them to you?
or host them and mail you the link would probably be easier...

[d7x]

any way you want, just gimme me a link here or at my email: pursuitmentality@gmail.com

[Av-]
