This is really odd. I'm not complaining that something works, but it is very surprising ..
On my website I had the usual css :hover for the navigation to reveal sublinks. But on the mobile browsers this needed some js help to make it work (as you can see from those many posts about "css hover not working on mobile browsers")
I made a simple script to fix the hover problem. But today as I was rewriting the code, since I noticed that it was not fully working as intended, I removed the entire mobileDetect.js which was handling the mobile hover. And now it works, without any additional scripts.
I tested it with chrome and safari on my ipad and iphone. It works as intended... did I misse out a big mobile browser update or something?
I use Jquery from google, no framework and standard HTML5.
Here is the site : (easy-sailing.ch) "EVENTS" and "AUSBILDUNG" are the mentioned navigations with sublinks.
I am just wondering if this is some odd anomaly and therefor should put my script back in or just enjoy the good news? :S
as far as i remember it has always been working...
...it is just not needed because there's no cursor and hover happens usually when you click (touch in this case) and you'll leave the page before noticing hover.
on android i can observe it when i touch+slide up or down.
I have fixed this for me by removing :hover selectors/rules at runtime https://github.com/kof/remove-hover

To begin with, I just started my first job as a junior front-end developer and got a task to fix bugs in the safari browser. (Chrome works well).
Our web app is developed using TypeScript, React (with Material UI framework) and Webpack.
Unfortunately, I spent hours surfing the internet and trying to find a solution for these bugs, but I couldn’t. I feel these bugs come from Material UI, but I might be wrong. I hope someone can help me with that and thank you in advance!
So the main problems I encountered in Safari were kind of CSS bugs.
Take a look:
Chrome_View / Chrome_View_Wrapped
Safari_View / Safari_View_Wrapped (Bugs are marked)
As you can see the in Chrome everything looks okay, while in Safari some of the things get corrupted.
ToolBar items get wrapped even there is free space. You can take a look at html and CSS. For example, if I comment (margin: -16px;) last item gets to its place.
Blue drawer background is not displayed until you wrap it out. You can take a look at html and CSS. For example, if I comment (overflow-x: hidden;) it gets fixed.
Wrap button on click should transform its direction by 180 degrees.
Footer and Drawer do not display images.
If anyone is familiar with this kind of issues please share your experience.
P.s. It would be great to avoid putting everywhere prefixes manually.
I have an html form in an iframe. In mobile safari, it's unbelievably fragile. Just focusing on an input will cause the whole frame to vanish. It seemed to be related to the automatic scrolling on entering an input, but I disabled this with a viewport tag, and I still have the problem. I've seen it come and go when a style had a height:100% rule, but now it's back to its bad old ways without the problem rule. The content is still there. Touching an invisible input will bring focus and the cursor, or pop the datepicker, but still invisible. Quick, someone, before I go nuts !
If this can be useful, I eventually traced this back to a loading animation implemented in css. Just the presence of the <div id="ajaxLoader"> in the page was enough to cause the instablility. Moral of the story: develop your mobile web apps with an iphone, because going back afterwards and making them work in safari may cost you your sanity.
I'm having a PITA issue with a website.
The Safari mac browser (the desktop one, specifically, mobile safari appears to work) is randomly ignoring some of my CSS -- most notably the background color applied to the HTML element. Refresh and it may -- or may not -- go away. Even more perplexing, the browser clearly knows that style is there! I'm using media queries to create a responsive site, and if you change the width enough to trigger a style sheet switch... it suddenly comes back, and everything works properly.
How the heck can I debug this? There's no error output in the console, the same data is getting sent every time (as far as I can tell...), it's not that one of the files is failing to be found (some of the CSS that is being applied is from the same stylesheet as the background...).
I'm at a total loss as to how to even begin debugging this one.
Edit:
If it's helpful, I just noticed that reader mode doesn't work on the refreshes the exhibit the broken behavior, even after the changing width trick fixes the background.
Edit:
This bug apparently also effects the mobile version, but instead of hitting the site-wide css, it's attacking my media-query based layout css.
You could, assuming you have the developer menu enabled, check Develop -> Disable Caches. This sounds like a caching issue.
If you don't have the developer menu enabled, enable it with settings (cmd+,) -> advanced -> show Develop menu in menu bar.
I'm seeing this in Safari 5.7.1 on Windows 7. It looks to me like Safari is actually ignoring commented out CSS. I removed all the comments, and now Safari seems to be behaving. But this is random for me as well, so I am not sure.
I am building a photo portfolio website using wordpress and editing an existing theme. I worked on it in firefox and checked a few times throughout at the styling in IE and it was always fine. But having basically finished I looked at it today and it in IE and it is totally messed up. None of the boxes on the main page are lined up right.
I tried using the code in the header to have IE render it as IE7 and that generally worked but it made some other little problems. I am not sure if the problem is my doctype. I don't really know what it should be, or if I changed something along the way that messed it up.
The site works perfectly in all other browsers that I have tried
Here is the site. http://theshalomimaginative.com/blog/
Thanks.
Youre <h3> tags aren't closed. One of the few instances where IE is actually rendering things correctly ;) Other browsers will allow us to make mistakes like this, but IE is more strict.
Never forget the value of validating your code!
I'm trying to learn CSS. I've taken great pains to get everything right. My pages all validate and they look correct on Firefox and mostly correct on Chrome. However IE is all over the place. In relation to Firefox, the following is wrong in IE (in order of importance):
the main body box is pushed below where the left boxes end
the upper-right drop-down stuff (mouse over "Settings") is totally off in the weeds (it's off in Chrome also but in a different way)
"Recipes" tab is supposed to have no visible bottom border
search button is askew in relation to search box
logged out version: the upper-right login elements are askew
Logged in,
Logged out,
CSS,
Links, functionality, etc. are not guaranteed to work on these pages. It's just static snapshots to show layout.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for whatever I'm doing wrong?
You need to Reset your CSS (Dean, above recommends Eric Meyer's Reset CSS). I prefer Yui Reset CSS (I actually like their own Reset / Fonts / Grids CSS). As part of doing this you also need to use Standards Mode.
Finally, you need to be aware that some things will differ in browsers no matter what. So if you run into this situation, it's either work around it, or live with it.
What version of IE are you running? Sounds like most of your issues may be caused by the IE Box Model Bug.
I never start a new website design in css without putting Eric Meyer's Reset CSS in first.
It resets all the differences in all the browsers, so that you've got a even playing field to start from.
From there-out, everything should be the same in all browsers.
