Hey everyone,

Maybe you can help with this.

Why does this page:

http://veearctest.foliv.com/old/accountloginnew.asp

show up as text in Firefox & Chrome. But looks like a webpage in Internet Explorer? Do I need to add a piece of code to make it appear as a webpage?




And on the main page
http://veearctest.foliv.com

I tried adding padding left for the "navigation bar" but it still looks offset, any ideas?

Thanks!
 
Any time iv had browser conflicts, iv ran the site through an HTML validator. Once i fixed the errors that it said i had, the browsers all sync'd up. Hope this helps.
 
You will need to run it through a validation service like Smile said. All browsers differ on how they want CSS and HTML presented and a lot of times this will cause a cross-browser error.
(from the looks of it, it is a CSS related error.)

I don't really get your second question which part are you trying to offset?

This might help with the first question.

This is a MIME issue. Your webserver is sending the wrong content-type for asp files. IE is designed to guess the content-type regardless of the header, Mozilla is designed to trust the headers. If the server sends text/plain then that's what Firefox will show, but IE will guess that it should be displayed as text/html.

Try adding this to your .htaccess and see what happens
Code:
<Files *.asp>
ForceType text/html
</Files>
