Screen size problem

Post by SpiritWebb »

I seem to be having another problem, that I cant seem to find an answer too. When I'm at home I use firefox, and I set my style.css to those dimensions. When I'm at work, I'm on IE, and my fields are not where they were before. My login/password are now way up top, when they were perfect before. How can I correct this, so the fields stay in the same spot, no matter what monitor?

I agree with you about IE...but my crew and I go about making this game, there are people who use it, and I don't know how to fix this issue. And with work, they don't allow any other browser, but IE.

Do a css for FF and one for IE. when the pages load up get it to check what browser they are using. :)

actually not a bad idea.


I too will have to face the IE issue eventually. I usually do it last. Are you using the latest version of IE? Older versions are not worth retrofitting due to its transparency issues.

well atm mine seems to be fine with IE. probably because it is EXTREEMLY graphically retarded lol. but depends how bad it looks at the end of it i might just put up a notice saying 'we reccomend you use firefox explorer when playing this game' and leave it at that lol

The biggest problem, is IE rendering in quirks mode for the older browsers. IE8 has come a long way. The important thing is specifying doctype, and wiping the browsers internal stylesheet.
