I am trying to modify one WordPress theme http://demo.wpzoom.com/evertis/ and use it on my own site.
However, something weird occured, the footer area will not display properly with Firefox (while it works fine on IE8):
The original theme works fine on Firefox and IE8.
Whats the possible reason?
More Information: I am using Notepad++ with Encoding "UTF-8 without BOM." Many years ago, I saw a problem similar to this one with IE6, after I change the Encoding to "ANSI", everything is fine. But this time it wont work.
Thanks a lot!
Try overriding the margin-right on the last footer section, something like:
.wpzoom-flickr-photos { margin-right:0; }
I think the problem is with the display: inline-block which is known for having issues. Here is an article where you could find the answer you are looking for:

After spending a while creating an online portfolio, then uploading it, I noticed an issue with one of my sections. On the "Advertisement" section, I noticed it was not displaying the information, just the title. So, I kept on re-pushing the stylesheet.css, even editing it, and it would still look the same. The HTML, CSS, and JS is working how I wrote it. But it is just the section that is not showing. After browsing online and on stackoverflow for an answer, I believe it has to do with Firefox. When using Firebug, I noticed the section's background has been removed, causing the entire section to "disappear." It works just fine on Chrome. I'm not worried about IE, I know that browser has some issues in itself. Anyway, would anyone on here have an idea to resolve this issue, if I can? Or even, what could be causing this issue?

It is the opposite for me your entire site works in firefox for me but not in chrome, looking through your code, its being caused by your naming conventions. Namely #advertise
I use the adguard extension in chrome and below is the css it plugs into my html pages to hide ads, so im guessing your using an adblocker in firefox
#adsense_top, #adsensewide, #adspace, #adspace_top, #adspot-300x250-pos-1, #adspot-300x250-pos-2, #adswidget1-quick-adsense, #adswidget2-quick-adsense, #adtext, #adtop, #adv-masthead, #adv-top, #advert1, #advert2, #advertbox3, #advertise, #advertisement1, #advertisetop, #advertising-container, #advertising_wrapper {
display: none!important;
}
Might as well post a random answer on this... As i wont visit posted links by new users.. i'm just gonna guess that your background image might not be 100%...
In general i use background-image instead of background.. Short hand can be a little pain and breaks in some browsers if not perfect.
so i would compare against the following example
background-image:url('images/mybg.jpg');
background-image:url('http://somesite.com/images/mybg.jpg');
Basically alot of people do not use the url and just go straight for a file name or dont quote it.. And have seen that be the problem in the past, so do use the url('') method.
Otherwise if it still fails to work and you know the image is absolute, you would then have some other css that is either over riding your elements background or is preventing it from loading.
Another trick is using your console / inspect element to manually inject the background-image and see if that works... So once the page has loaded in chrome, inspect the element as normal.. And double click on your css property listing as you can add your own styles this way and if it fails, then its not the markup but something else.
Firefox does not seem to be completing every aspect of the stylesheet for the site (nsfw text) www.theshandy.com
Firefox seems to have implemented the body styling but none of the class or id styles. Every other browser seems to be having no trouble at all.
After doing some research I have tried fixing problems other people have found. The sheet is directly linked (not called by php). The type is definitely text/css. And I believe it has the correct utf-8 character set.
I am really at a loss.
Thank you very much.
EDIT SOLVED:
It was a rogue apostrophe in one of the early ID styles. Apparently chrome and safari will ignore is and firefox won't and it then refused to load the rest of the stylesheet (creating the idea that the body styles were loading but not others.
Thank you for trying to help!
Check your paths.. you might be using /css/style.css instead of css/style.css.
This could generate this problem.
The problem is on my site:

I've been wracking my brain trying to figure how to solve this. Basically, I wanted to create a "Featured Posts" slider by using EasySlider 1.7 . The slider is the first thing you see when on the site.
Everything seemed to be going well during the install, but once I finished I realized the nextText and prevText was showing on top of my background images. This seems to be a property that can't be modified with css or html as I think it's embedded in the javascript provided.
I tried the Best Answer found in this question ("CSS text replace with image, need hyperlink") and it worked for the nextBtn but when I tried it for the prevBtn the nextBtn disappeared and was replaced by the default setting. If anyone can explain to me how to properly use this method with both buttons, then that solution would be fine.
But if you can't then please help me come up with any other solution. I'm not very well versed with CSS or HTML, so I'm learning as I go right now. It's probably some dumb mistake I made, but I'd still like to know how to fix it!
Thank you in advance to anyone who responds!!
I tested it with firebug directly on Your page. Try this:
#nextBtn a, #prevBtn a {
display: block !important;
text-indent: -9999px;
}
Important is this !important ;) It makes that this display: block is more important than display: inline which adds Your slider plugin.
Not quite sure what's going on, but if you go to https://sites.google.com/site/shawnhasinger/files/easySlider1.7.js where you have linked it from, you get a log in page, meaning that it doesn't work! This isn't the issue you are facing, probably because you are logged in...
Problem:
Thanks for taking the time to read this. I'm having a problem which I need to solve as simple as possible. There's a website I'm re-developing, but since I updated to IE8, I've totaly forgotten about IE7, but ofcourse, there are still people using it.
I need to know what specific things I should change for this site to display the same way as it does in IE8. But I don't know where to start. Is there anyone with experience in this, who can give me a guideline? Are there scripts for doing so?

If you view this with IE8 it looks perfect.
But if you view it with IE7, things are not where they supposed to be, very ugly.
As the other said, your question is to broad. You'll need to break it down in smaller problems - which will possibly help you solve it yourself along the way.
One thing I did notice: IE has problems with display: inline-block on elements, which were orignally block elements. Either use span (only possible if it doesn't contain block elements), or use another method to places blocks side by side such as float.
BTW, you have far too many divs in your HTML. It's not necessary to wrap every img, every ul, etc. in it's own div. Usually any styles you apply to the div can just as well be applied you the "wrapped" element directly.
This is not a cool idea... But you can try when you are sick with very old browsers like ie6 or ie5 ...
1.use javascript to detect the browser and version..
2.later use the similar way to redirect the visitor to download the IE 8..
<script>
if(''+browserName+''+fullVersion+'' == "Microsoft Internet Explorer6.0" )
{
alert("You're using an Old Browser.Update the browser to view the website.(or) Try Latest Google Chrome , Firefox , Safari, Opera")
window.location = "http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=43"
}
//document.write(''+browserName+''+fullVersion+'');
</script>
I need to prepare print css style for some page. It's possible to have footer on every printed page?
I tried the code, I've found on the web:
display:block;position:fixed; bottom:0px;
but it works only in Firefox.
I can try to fix it with table, but in Q. here: CSS: Repeat table headers in print mode is info, that it doesn't work in IE5 (maybe I made some error, but it seems, that it doesn't work even in IE7).
Does anybody fixed problem with printing footer on every page in IE? Doesn't matter if with tables or without them.
Thanks for help.
I do not think it is possible to print headers and footer using IE current, since Even in IE8 it is compliance to CSS 2.1. But there are other tweaks to get around the problem. Hope this URL will help: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd433064(VS.85).aspx.
PS: The URL you referenced, on the bottom of the page specifically said works only on safari.
