HTML/CSS probs with a div-based webpage
PostPosted: Tue Aug 12, 2008 12:58 pm
I've had a few different problems with this page. In an earlier version, I had the bottom content contained in a div called 'bottom'; however, in IE this created an unwanted gap between the two top divs and the bottom one that I couldn't figure out how to get rid of.
So I tried something else, and I thought I had it figured out. This layout works well enough in FF ((still needs a bit of work, but nothing I don't already know how to do, just haven't gotten to it yet)), but it displays weird in IE. I know that adding the proper doctype fixes the problem, but I don't have that option. The webhost I have to work with isn't the best, and thus I need a way to make this display properly in quirks mode in IE.
My problem is the image that appears on it's own row in the middle of the page, it should be in the same row as the two images directly below it.
Here's my code:
I need a solution that doesn't cause the page to display wrong in Firefox, and I'd prefer not to have to use a browser-detection script to document.write different HTML in. I know that would work and I could do that, but I think it would work just as well to stick to the table-based layout that's up on our site now rather than bothering with extra scripts.
