Left Nav box different size in Firefox and in IE

Recommended Posts

My left Nav box is coming up a different size (width) in Firefox and in IE and it's messing up my page dimensions.

Firefox looks perfect - IE makes the box wider.

 

I have searched all over for this - and can't find where it's pulling the dimensions from.

The column_left include doesn't say a whole lot.

 

Anyone know how to find where these dimensions can be changed?

 

Second thing - how do I make a border around my entire site?

 

Thanks in advance !!

Take a peek at your style sheet... ie will ignore commented out items,

ie:

 

#font-color: #ffffff;

font-color: #000000;

 

will show up black in ff and white in ie.

I need to know where the dimensions of the left nav categories box is - not the colors.

 

it looks fine in Fire fox - but IE makes the box wider than it should be.

Look in catalog/includes/application_top.php for

// customization for the design layout
 define('BOX_WIDTH', 125); // how wide the boxes should be in pixels (default: 125)

This sets the width for both the left and right columns.

Awesome - Thanks !! That worked to an extent.

 

My next issue with the search box is - I changed the image from the magnifying glass to a button that says "GO"

 

In IE it shows up to the right of the search form - but not middle justified (there is a space at the bottom)

On FireFox - the "Go" button shows up below the form box.

How can I get this straight so it will show up the same on both browsers?

 

I am almost done with my mods - please help !!
