IE goin to kill me :((

**itmanvn** · May 22, 2005, 08:03

Hi, can anyone help me this problem

First, take a look at this picture: http://tanavn.info/tmp/ie.JPG

end then this's the site viewing in FireFox: http://tanavn.info/tmp/ff.JPG

WHY IE display like that

( , FireFOx is very ok

(
if I display 20 record it'll create 20 BLANK LINE

(

This is the source code

salons4sale.php

Code:

//header
	$header = & new Template('header');
	$header->set('title', $itech->vars['site_name']);
	
	//left
	$left = & new Template('left');
	$left->set('userbox', $print->show_userbox());
	$left->set('statistic', $print->statistics());
	
	//top
	$top = & new Template('top');
	$top->set('title', $itech->vars['site_name']);
	
	//main
	$main = & new Template('salons4sale');
	$main->set('list_salons', $print->list_salons());
	
	//right
	$bottom = & new Template('right');
	$bottom->set('title', $itech->vars['site_name']);
	
	$DB->close_db();
	
	//footer
	$footer = & new Template('footer');
	$footer->set('title', $itech->vars['site_name']);
	
	//all
	$tpl = & new Template();
	$tpl->set('header', $header);
	$tpl->set('left', $left);
	$tpl->set('top', $top);
	$tpl->set('main', $main);
	$tpl->set('right', $bottom);
	$tpl->set('footer', $footer);
	echo $tpl->fetch('home');

this is the function list_salon

Code:

//return last 20 salons for sale
	function list_salons(){
		global $DB, $itech, $print;
		
		//prepare to paging result
		$paging = new Pager;
		//extra link to detail area
		$paging->extLink = 'act=salons4sale';
		//how many project to display per page
		$limit = $itech->vars['num_salon_per_page'];
		// Find the start depending on $itech->input['page'] (declared if it's null)
		$start = $paging->findStart($limit); 
		
		//how many salons that we have?
		$q = "SELECT SalonID, SalonName, DatePost, City, StateID, Views FROM ".$itech->vars['table_salons']." WHERE CURDATE() <= DateEnd ORDER BY DatePost DESC, SalonID DESC";
		$query = $DB->query($q);
		//get the numbers of results
		$count = $DB->get_num_rows($query);
		$DB->free_result($query);
		if ($count==0){
			$print->redirect('?act=contact', $lang['salon_fail'] ,'main page');
		}
		else{
			// Find the number of pages based on $count and $limit
			$pages = $paging->findPages($count, $limit); 
			// Now we use the LIMIT clause to grab a range of rows
			$q .= " LIMIT ".$start.", ".$limit; 
			//execute the query
			$query = $DB->query($q);
			
			$tpl = & new Template('s_salon');
			$data = '';
			$ct = 1 + $limit * ($itech->input['page'] - 1);
			while ($result = $DB->fetch_row($query)){
				$tpl->set('num', $ct);
				$tpl->set('sid', $result['SalonID']);
				$tpl->set('sname', $result['SalonName']);
				$tpl->set('sdate', $this->mydate($result['DatePost']));
				$tpl->set('scity', $result['City']. '/' .$this->get_dropdown_states($result['StateID'], 1));
				$tpl->set('sviews', $result['Views']);
				$data .= $tpl->fetch('s_salon');
				
				$ct += 1;
			}
			if ($pages > 1){
				$data .= ($pages>5) ? '<tr><td colspan="4"><div align="center">('.$pages.')&nbsp;'.$paging->pageList($itech->input['page'], $pages).'</div><br></td></tr>' :
									'<tr><td colspan="4"><div align="center">'.$paging->pageList($itech->input['page'], $pages).'</div><br></td></tr>';
			}
			$DB->free_result($query);
		}
		return $data;
	}

this is my template class

Code:

class Template {
    var $vars, $file;

    function Template($file = null) {
        $this->file = $file;
    }

    function set($name, $value) {
        $this->vars[$name] = is_object($value) ? $value->fetch() : $value;
    }

    function fetch($file = null) {
        global $itech, $lang;
        if(!$file) $file = $this->file;
		
		extract($this->vars);
        ob_start();
        include($itech->vars['templateFolder'].$file.$itech->vars['templateType']);
        $contents = ob_get_contents();
        ob_end_clean();
        return $contents;
    }
}

this is a part of salons4sale template file

Code:

<tr>
                  <td><table width="480" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#EBEFF5" class="form">
                    <tr bgcolor="#728AB8">
                      <td><div align="center" class="style1"><strong>#</strong></div></td>
                      <td height="22" bgcolor="#728AB8"><div class="style1" style="padding-left:5 "><strong><?=$lang['salon_name']?></strong></div></td>
                      <td><div align="center" class="style1"><strong><?=$lang['salon_date']?></strong></div></td>
                      <td><div align="center" class="style1"><strong><?=$lang['salon_city']?></strong></div></td>
                    </tr>
                    <?=$list_salons?>
                  </table>
                  </td>
                </tr>

this is the template file s_salon.htm that used to loop in the list_salon function

Code:

<tr bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
  <td align="center"><?=$num?></td>
  <td><a href="?act=viewsalon&id=<?=$sid?>"><?=$sname?></a></td>
  <td align="center"><?=$sdate?></td>
  <td align="center"><?=$scity?></td>
</tr>

This isn't a PHP problem as PHP is run server-side. Try checking the HTML that is outputted and posting that in the HTML forum.

Try the HTML/CSS forum. They'l help you better.

At a glance it looks like a bug that you would get if you were using css and Divs for the layout and the amount of horizontal space that you had for the middle section exceeded what was available. Therefore the browser was unable to float the two areas side by side and had to bump the middle part below the part on the left.
