I'm having browser compatibility issues with my site. I designed my site in Dreamweaver and can view it fine on my computer however others tell me that only half of the right sidebar is visible and I also see this issue when I do a browser compatibility check online.

I did a lot of CSS editing when I designed the site to add an extra sidebar in the template etc.

Any ideas?

  • AtikM,

    Take a look at the attached file of your website. I took a screenshot and there are some thing that you might can improve on centering so far.

    Best,

  • SD and Laurence,

    Thanks so much for your help!

    SD, I'm probably missing something but when I try to view that image it's a bit small and I'm unable to make out any of the notes. Is there another way to view it?
    Thank you again!

    Edit: Cool, thanks a lot for your help SD! I'll try to fix those issues. Do you think that's contributing to why my website is showing up differently for different people (under the same/different browsers)?
  • This is how Browser Lab shows my site as on Chrome, Safari, and IE (and how someone told me they see it)

  • That could be.. what is your resolution on your CPU? mine is .1024x768 on my Laptop

  • Viewer Statistics: There are more than 40 different screen resolutions. 1024x768 is the most popular resolution used (getting the lions share of around 60%) followed by 1280x1024 and above (around 25%) and 800x600 (around 14%). 98% of users have 800x600 and above resolution, thus, 800x600 can be taken as the minimum resolution the site should fit (other lower resolution are seldom used). have you tried to see it in regular chrome or firefox? I was viewing it in chrome and the same was firefox. try not to use Adobe Browser Lab and see what going on there. When i use Dreamweaver my defualt is set on IE and then i open it up in chrome, firefox and safari..

  • This is a CSS issue...

    In the style.css file there is the following:

    Code:
    #wrapper {
overflow: hidden;
background: #F1F2E9;
}
    overflow:hidden is "hiding" the scroll bars.

    I have just checked parts of your CSS file... nearly every div has overflow:hidden...

    I don't know who has done this crap, but he needs a slap ;-)

    If you need further help just let me know.
