Picture alignment

[yellowmonkey]

Hi guys,

 

Just putting the finishing touches to an OSC site and have a couple of iritating bugs:

 

1. On the categories pages in Firefox the images aren't lining up with the text, yet they are fine in IE6.

 

See here

 

2. Also in Firefox, there seems to be a small cluster of grey pixels appearing on top of the red bar at the bottom of the screen, but again this is not present in IE6.

 

See here

 

Any ideas much appreciated.

What type of images are you using? .png, .gif or .jpg? The browsers handle them differently, but a common practice is to keep with .jpg and .gif. The reason for .gif is for images that have a transparent background. The quality sucks, but it's best for basic images. As for your second problem, it's kinda hard to fix without something that shows us what the problem is. Can you link your site so that we can look at the source code and try to help out that way?

Try adjusting the hspace="5" vspace="5" and see if that helps.

Thanks for the response guys.

Do the hyperlinks in my first post not work for you?

 

They should allow you to see the site and source code.

 

If not I will re-post.

It has to do with the theme style of the page not with oscommerce. You should go to the themestyle developer of that particular style. Some HTML code does not have the same results between ie and firefox and so programmers need to be aware of compatibility issues between both. Which html code to use in different cases so that you get the same results is what the issue is, you may need a more competent person to fix the issue than the person who developed the theme.
