Any one have some time to tell me why this is happening and how to fix it?

6 replies
Here is a webpage I built for a project, my problem is that it looked fine until I put it up but for some reason the content background image, which is labled in the css as contentbg, is on the bottom of the page?

I am viewing it on IE 8.0 Browser

Heres the webpage----

Seems to look just fine in Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Steve. Looks fine in IE 8.

    However, it looks broken when I enable compatibility mode.

      Thanks, I didnt realize I wasn't in compatability mode. LOL!

      Either way, its a stupid IE problem, it has to be, but makes no sense to me, because I ran it through the validator and W3C and all the code is clean except I need to add some alt tags to the images, which I do not think would cause this issue....

        Steve,

        Check your <div> and </div> tags it could just be that you have a loose </div> hanging in there somewhere. They can be pesky little blighters.

        Page displays ok in Firefox and IE (unless in compatability mode, then the bg shows up under the footer)

        Hope that helps.

    The W3C validator is great, just to bad a lot of browser implementations aren't as good.

    If you want to know how it really looks in different browsers on different platforms, try the service over at browsershots.org.

    I hope you find a fix to the IE-bug

    Would it validate in W3C's HTML-validator if it was a div-tag issue? From my experience, it wouldnt.

    Did you check out the CSS-validator from W3C? The W3C CSS Validation Service

      Yep, its been checked in the w3c css validator also?

      It just makes no sense to me at all?
