Hello

My website ( http://www.club-tropica.net/ ) Has a small bug. Just in the radio stats box. I cant get the content to go into the box could somone please help me out.


kind regards

Small bug ?? Have you looked at it with Firefox ? You've got WAY more than a 'small bug' going on there.

Your biggest problem is all that absolute positioning. It's not necessary and not good either. Better to learn to use the normal document flow and floats than to nail everything in place as you have let Dreamweaver do for you.

Gee.. guess what, my browser BLOCKS POP-UPS !! As does IE. Besides your 'recommendation' is a VERY bad idea - why alienate all those people using non-IE browsers ?? Do you really want to drive people away ? I think it's just a huge excuse for not wanting to take the time to make the site work cross-browser.

You're not going to get your content where you want it until you GET RID of all that absolute positioning.

I use a Mac, so IE isn't an option for me.
Linux users = same thing
That's not a small number of users BTW.

Oh, and if I see a site while I'm in windows that tells me I have to use a certain browser to view their site.... I close it. Even if I'm using the browser they recommend, I still close it. It just shows that it's a webmaster who is either lazy, incompetant, or both, so how good can their site really be?

Couldn't have said it better myself there Mork

I'd like to add to all of this. The main reason I (we) develop first for the standards compliant browsers, and then do work-arounds when necessary for the Microsoft browsers, is because developing in conformance with standards is necessary if you have any mind at all for the future. Even Explorer is geared towards becoming more standards compliant with each generation. IE7 was a huge leap forward from IE6, and there is much hope for IE8, which is trying to become CSS 2.1 compliant, and include some of the more popular elements of CSS3. Considering the the gaining popularity of Firefox, and the fact that many people are on platforms such as Linux and Mac also (as pointed out by mork29), locking yourself into one specific generation of IE is a pretty terrible idea.

I personally hate IE, I only ever use it to test my websites in different browsers, but even then I use this.

Be careful with that add on Gilligan. I used to use it, and it's mostly pretty good but not perfect. I just use IE now.

Actually, I use a Firefox extension called IE View. It puts 'view this page in IE' on the right-click context menu so there's no question of what's going on, as there is with the IE Tab thing.

Omg why do you have all this font face html when u can use a css sheet ?
<td><font face="Verdana" size="2"><img height="1" alt="" width="189" border="0" src="Layout/HLB/spacer.gif" /></font></td><td><font face="Verdana" size="2"><img height="1" alt="" width="1" border="0" src="Layout/HLB/spacer.gif" /></font></td><td><font face="Verdana" size="2"><img height="1" alt="" width="15" border="0" src="Layout/HLB/spacer.gif" /></font></td><td><font face="Verdana" size="2"><img height="1" alt="" width="5" border="0" src="Layout/HLB/spacer.gif" /></font></td><td><font face="Verdana" size="2"><img height="1" alt="" width="1" border="0" src="Layout/HLB/spacer.gif" /></font></td><td><font face="Verdana" size="2"><img height="1" alt="" width="1" border="0" src="Layout/HLB/spacer.gif" /></font></td></tr><tr>
