I understand that our sites are suppose to appear in Firefox, Opera etc, properly now.
Please click on the following link first in IE, which is normal then in either of the other browsers.

Hello WH,

The new version of VSD will help you site to look more comparable in Firefox and Opera.

There is an article about this topic that you might be interested in. Please view it here:

The article deals with VisualSite Designer, but the information therein is pertinent toward any type of web design. Pay close attention especially to the links at the bottom. I hope this helps!

I see text overlapping the images in Firefox, but it might be because it seems all the text is one huge text box w/ a ton of space in between "<BR>" tags. I would suggest trying to make each text area its own text box version making big gaps in one box for images to fit.

Wh, You are right. It still looks screwy in Firefox.

The text where is says "Agility Equipment", "Tunnels", and the paragraphs, "An Easy Obstacle", "Weave Poles", and "A Frame" all grossly overlap over the photos.

I am using XP Media Edition SP2 with a Pentium 4 with Hyper Threading, 4gig RAM, 360 Gig HD with a NVidea 6800 Graphics card, so my system is pretty decent.

The same overlapping happened on a few pages on my site with the old and new VSD, so it still seems to be an issue.

When will it be fixed?

WH,

I just looked using IE7 and Firefox. Both look the same. Here is a partial screen shot from IE7:

I suspect IE6 will render <br> with a different height than other browsers. Try following Adams advice.

I was about to post screencaps myself, but I suppose using browsershots.org would help in this case:

This link expire, so the site can be loaded again if that happens.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
