firefox image position different to chrome - css

[solved - issue was related to web tools provided by ucoz]

Your webpage lacks a doctype.
<!DOCTYPE html> should be the first thing in the HTML.
Then use the HTML validator provided by the W3C to fix up your HTML http://validator.w3.org.

You should invest in a reset stylesheet to normalize the elements across browsers. Try plugging this into your header:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/reset.css">

Preload CSS file not supported on Firefox and Safari Mac

I added the attribute rel="preload" to all css links like this :
<link rel='preload' onload='this.rel="stylesheet"' as='style'
id='reworldmedia-style-css' href='style.css' type='text/css' media='all'
/>
It works fine in Chrome but not in Safari or Firefox
I found a possibly best solution is to load two files as below - browsers that support preload will use it as intended and those that don't (like Firefox) will only use the regular (2nd link). This solution doesn't require using the onload="this.rel='stylesheet'" since the style is used right after the preload:
<head>
<link rel="preload" href="style.css" as="style">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
What I also discovered is a hacky alternative to the above could be including "rel" twice, like:
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" rel="preload" as="style">
For Firefox, it's only supported in Firefox 56 Nightly. It will ship on September 26, 2017. You can download it from here.
Update: This feature is landed on FF 56 but removed in 57. Here is the reason:
This feature was available in Firefox 56, but only for cacheable resources. It has been disabled in Firefox 57 because of various web compatibility issues (e.g. bug 1405761). An improved version that works for non-cacheable resources is expected to land in Firefox 59
See can I use.
It is not supported in Firefox and will be added in the next release of Safari.
So what you are seeing is expected behaviour.
I can't think of something more explanatory than the documentation itself. On the caniuse.com site there is this http://caniuse.com/#feat=link-rel-preload and if you follow that and go to the w3c specifications you find this. https://w3c.github.io/preload/ where is clearly stated that "This is a work in progress and may change without any notices." Maybe soon when this "Draft" will be refined, support will be added.
Reliably preload across browsers with loadCSS
One issue with preloading is that it is not supported by browsers like Firefox and Internet Explorer (as of Nov 2018). As a result, these browsers will not download the CSS file and this can result into serious display issues for your web-pages. This makes it critical to include a JavaScript polyfill for preload - loadCSS.
Download the loadCSS JavaScript file or simply copy it’s JS code from
here.
Load the loadCSS polyfill wherever CSS stylesheet preload is
performed:
<style>
[Your critical CSS goes here]
</style>
<!– Reliably defer loading of non-critical CSS with loadCSS–>
<link rel=“preload” href=”[yourcssfile]” as=“style” onload=“this.onload=null; this.rel=‘stylesheet’”>
<noscript><link rel=“stylesheet” href=”[yourcssfile]” ></noscript>
<!– Inline the loadCSS preload polyfill code or load it via external JS file–>
<script src=“./cssrelpreload.js”></script>
As of November 2021. I've used the following and it works on Firefox/Safari/Chrome and other major browsers:
<link rel="stylesheet preload" as="style" href="style.css" >
You don't need to double the "rel" or to use two for the same CSS file.
This works <link rel="preload stylesheet" href="./style.css" as="style"> to instruct the browser to download key resources as soon as possible.
I have soulution this is works and best for website speed
This is for normal code for every browser put as a default
<link rel="stylesheet" rel="preload" href="css/xyz.css" as="style" onload="this.onload=null;this.rel='stylesheet'" /> <noscript><link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css" /></noscript>
and for mozilla firefox use this, when file run in mozilla its show this code otherwise its show default css code <?php if(isset($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'])){$agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];} if(strlen(strstr($agent,"Firefox")) > 0 ){$browser = 'firefox';} if($browser=='firefox'){echo '<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/xyz.css" />';}?>
Best solution for 2021:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/my.css" media="print" onload="this.media='all'">
Why is this best option?
Currently (in 2021) all modern browsers support preload tag but if someone visits your page with device using not updated browser, IE or some native mobile browser like Samsung Mobile your page will still look bad or wont be styled at all. On the other hand gain in page load time (and pagespeed score) using preload is too big to give it up just to support less than 1% of devices.
Top voted answer using 2x rel tag still negatively affects FCP render time (you can test that with chrome devtools performance tab). Using media attribute switch we get solution that doesnt block page render
and works for older browsers.
Fetch priority
Its important to say that 'preload' tag fetches non-critical css with highest priority which can deprioritize other important downloads, but if in your case you want priority provided with preload you can use this workaround:
<link rel="preload" href="/path/to/my.css" as="style">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/my.css" media="print" onload="this.media='all'">

IE9 renders completely different to any other browser - bootstrap based site

I have no idea why IE9 is giving such a different rendering to any other browser, IE10 works great as well as all other modern browsers.
My site is based on bootstrap 3.
I'm not sure where to start looking as the dev tools within IE9 are terrible.
Anyone have any ideas on where to start or what it could be:

Try setting your DOCTYPE to
<!DOCTYPE html>
and add this meta element
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

Flash of unstyled content (FOUC) in Firefox only? Is FF slow renderer?

I'm not seeing this issue in any other browser that I've tested - IE, Chrome, Opera - but whenever I load a page from the server, I'm seeing a flash of unstyled content before the CSS is applied.
This is even happening on subsequent page loads where everything should be cached - every time the page loads I see the unstyled content for a split-second, then everything settles in.
It's also worth noting (perhaps?) that the page is using #font-face to pull some Google fonts. They are stored in a separate stylesheet being pulled after the main responsive stylesheets and media queries.
I've tried a few different things, to no effect:
Rearranging order of CSS stylesheet links
Removing link to stylesheets with #font-face
Disabling Firebug? (Read on here somewhere...)
One other thing that may be worth mentioning is that I used quite a lot of Element Type CSS selectors in the page's CSS. Is it possible that this is slowing down the rendering process?
This seems unlikely as there is no problem immediately re-rendering the page upon changing the dimensions of the window - the responsive stuff renders fine immediately.
So this leads me to believe that there is some issue with how the CSS is being loaded.
Here is my HEAD code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<!--<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />-->
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width; initial-scale=1.0; maximum-scale=1.0; minimum-scale=1.0; user-scalable=no; target-densityDpi=device-dpi" />
<title></title>
<!-- responsive stylesheets -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/320.css" type="text/css" media="screen and (max-width:320px)" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/480.css" type="text/css" media="screen and (min-width:321px) and (max-width:480px)" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/768.css" type="text/css" media="screen and (min-width:481px) and (max-width:768px)" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/960.css" type="text/css" media="screen and (min-width:769px) and (max-width:960px)" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/960+.css" type="text/css" media="screen and (min-width:961px)" />
<!-- custom fonts stylesheet -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/fonts.css" type="text/css" />
<!-- favicon -->
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="resources/images/ui/favicon.ico">
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/960+.css" type="text/css"/>
<![endif]-->

WTF is going wrong with Firefox? It's driving me nuts!
If you add a dummy <script> tag right after <body>, Firefox will show the page after all the css from <head> is loaded:
<body>
<script>0</script>
<!-- rest of the code -->
</body>
There is an official bugreport about this FOUC (Flash Of Unstyled Content) on the Firefox site: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1404468
I had the same problem with Layout was forced before the page was fully loaded. If stylesheets are not yet loaded this may cause a flash of unstyled content. showing in the console, and a visible flash of unstyled content upon page refresh, withouth (F5) or with clearing the cache (Ctrl + F5). Having the developer tools open does not made a difference either.
What helped me was declaring a variable in a script just before the </head> tag ended, so basically after all the <link> tags.
It's important to note, that an empty script (or with just a comment) or any random javaScript would not help, but declaring a variable worked.
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/other.css" />
<script>
/*to prevent Firefox FOUC, this must be here*/
let FF_FOUC_FIX;
</script>
</head>
There was no need to rearrange links or not use imports within css or js files.
Please note that the issue will no longer be visible (FOUC is visibly gone), but the console might still show the same warning.
I was experiencing this error. A colleague has said that it's caused by the attribute, autofocus being added to a form field.
By removing this attribute and using JavaScript to set the focus the brief flash of unstyled content stops happening.
For what it's worth, I had this same problem and found that it was being caused by having poorly formatted <html>...</html> tags.
To be precise, in my code I accidentally closed the HTML tag too early, like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"></html>
<head>
<title>My title</title>
The code provided by the original poster is missing the opening <html> so I suspect that's probably what is happening there.
Filament Group share they way they load their fonts in detail,
http://www.filamentgroup.com/lab/font-loading.html
which is a nice modern approach to #font-face loading
Smashing magazine also review there website performance and came up with a different solution that stores the caches a base64 copy of the font in local storage. This solution may require a different licence for you font.

Additional recommendation
The head of your document contains far to many individual stylesheets, all these css files should be combined into a single file, minified and gziped. You may have a second link for your fonts placed before you main stylesheet.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/fonts.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/css/main.css" type="text/css" />
I've had the same issue. In my case removing #import rule in the CSS file and linking all the CSS files in the HTML resolved it.
In my case the reason of FOUC in FF was the presence of iframe on page.
If I removing iframe from markup then FOUC disappears.
But I need iframe for my own hacking reasons so I changed this
<iframe name="hidden-iframe" style="display: none;position:absolute;"></iframe>
into this
<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', ()=>{
let nBody = document.querySelector('body')
let nIframe = document.createElement('iframe');
nIframe.setAttribute('name', "hidden-iframe");
nIframe.style.display = 'none';
nIframe.style.position = 'absolute';
nBody.appendChild(nIframe);
});
</script>
I've added this inline JS right in template just for readability: in my case this code runs once per page.
I know that it's dirty hack, so you can add this code in separated JS-file.
The problem was in Firefox Quantum v65.
I had the same problem (but also in chrome). Even if many of the existing answers provide clues to the reason for FOUC I wanted to present my problem and its solution.
As I said, I had FOUC in a fairly large project and already had the suspicion of a racecondition in some form.
In the project SASS is used and via a "bootstrap" file for the css a fontawesome free package was added via import.
#import "#fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.css";
This import has increased the total size of the css file by a lot, which caused the file to take a long time to load, and the browser went and already loaded the following javascript.
The JS that was then executed forced the rendering of its content and thus created the FOUC.
So the solution in my case was to remove the big fontawesome package and insert the icons I used from it (~10) via an Icomoon custom font. Not only did this solve the FOUC but it also had the nice side effect that the delivered CSS files are much smaller.

Internet Explorer css Error

My tutorial site works fine on google chrome but when i try to open it with any kind of internet explorer i can not see some part of visul items.
All information of my design exist in css file. However being gray of right part can be observed but on the other hand i can't see navigation bar.
I put my some codes. It is high possible to have any link between these code and this situation.
At the beginning:
<!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/tempPage00.dwt" codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" --><!doctype html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

I don't usualy control my site with different kind of browser, now i recommend to do this everyday. Now i don't have any idea which code make this situation. :)
Yout HTML is a little messed up.
Fix these things and it might help:
Place your HTML tag before the HEAD tag but after the DOCTYPE tag.
Place a closing HTML tag at the very end of your document.
In the TABLE you have towards the end of your page you have an extra closing TR tag.
The comment before your DOCTYPE will possibly cause problems too.
Try running your site through a validator to check for errors like these.
HTML: http://validator.w3.org/
CSS: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
It's because you have a comment before your doctype declaration.
This is forcing the page into quirks mode if you remove that comment you should be ok.
<!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/tempPage00.dwt" codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" -->
<!doctype html>
<head>
Edit... The head and html tags are the wrong way round also.

ie9 spacing - css not working as it should

Hi might be a simple one for someone.
I have finished working on this website and in ie9 there is a lot of line height issues - i don't even know if line height is the right word - spacing seems to imply letter spacing.
The easiest way to explain my issue is with screen shots.
Why is the 3rd one (ie9) so out?
url for the website is http://www.geckowebsolutions.co.uk
Could it be the font .eot is rending differently to the otf?
If so how can I work around this?
DanSiop
Change your headers to tell IE9 to follow the modern norms :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
Do the 3 changes : the doctype, the html element and the meta.
I am not sure why it's happening (trouble shooting in IE sucks) but it's your.breadcrumbs CSS that is being affected. Quick and dirty solution is to add an IE conditional.
<!--[if IE]>
<style>
.breadcrumbs{top:11px;}
</style>
<![endif]-->
