HTML Coding Firefox & IE Compatability

[niss]

Hey guys!

Need help with an issue I am having with our company website and browser compatibility.

Our website: http://www.fineairmechanical.com

On firefox when looking at the pages the body div is filled out with   so the window doesn't get crushed and cover up the pictures on the left hand side. On IE this doesn't work and on each page the div is a different size.

Also the footer is all over the place and I can't get it back under control

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Why wouldn't you use tables?

I forget the exact tag, but there was a way to "merge" cells, enabling you to keep your footer properly centered.

Keep in mind my HTML by today's standards is hackish and old school. Maybe someone else on here will have a better solution.

Goodbye,

Louis

W3C's HTML Validator is returning a few errors ... you could start by fixing those.

But seriously, I'm not sure why you'd bother coding individual pages in html these days. Throw a basic content management system on your server and have done with it. They make future changes and updates so much simpler and way decrease the chances of cross-platform or browser errors like the ones you're seeing.

I can't help. I just discovered html last week.

But I do like the name of the company. Nice play on words!

Good luck, niss!

Hey,

As far as I can tell, if you remove the 'position:relative' from the footer style your footer will move back under your container DIV.

IE doesn't give much merit to background images in DIVs so if you'd like to have all four displayed you'll have to give the DIV a height
