Same code? different results!

No problem with putting the code between conditional brackets. I just want to be sure the problem is fixed and not lingering… and indeed it looks good now!

You are most definitely a marketeer. You’re doing a lot of work to support IE8 (a minority of people with few resources and little purchasing power). Hope it’s worth it.

I think you may under appreciate how fast WinXP is being abandoned by businesses. Seriously fast. I had to upgrade to Win7 because new versions of my camera utilities (and several other utilities and applications) could no longer be installed on WinXP. IE8 has no choice but to die sooner than later.

I hope you like the logobox tweaks.

Would appreciate feedback.

Cheers

In my stats, believe ir or not, I still get a few (very few) on IE7 and IE6…

I’m travelling tomorrow on a 1300 Km drive, so if I’m still alive when I get there I will be out of action, recovering, for the next couple of days.

many thanks for your help

I think I can manage the little things now (famous last words…)

Bye for now!

Hi

I have a problem in IE8…

The new pages, say the http://pintotours.net/Asia/Japan/IbisShinjuku.html

lost the background margin between Content and #left which is being caused by curvycorners when they load. It also shortens the left sidebar.

Now, all the 100 pages based on a different css buttons.css like http://pintotours.net/Asia/Japan/airportHnd.html
do not have that problem

I thought it was just a question of placing a conditional to do with the width of the #left but the airportHnd.html does not have it, and I tried it and did not work.

if you have a chance to look at it, I would be grateful as I now need to close the PC and start packing!

Do your stats differentiate between IE-whatever running in compatibility mode and the real IE6 and IE7?

85

Not that I know of!

Sorry, I deleted my post because I had gotten ahead of myself. First, I meant to request:

Please repost the problem that you describe in post #83 in a new topic/thread. Your description is great, but it is an entirely new issue that can be addressed without the background of this thread. You could entitle it something like “IE8 + curvycorners = margin problem” and include several example URLs withing the body of the message.

I will give it a look, but no promises. Personally, I believe that such catering to IE8 is a waste of time. My heart isn’t in it.

That was quick. Much better chance of finding someone with a solution this way.

Have a safe trip.

Hi Sorry to return to this thread

In #70 I was trying to solve the extra width in a page when viewed on small mobiles. It was solved simply by deleting

hotelSet.css (line 1326) (line 1295 in the CSS for the TEST page)

#content #box4 h5 {
    white-space: nowrap;  /* DELETE ME! again */
}

I have a similar problem on some other pages and thought the remedy was the same (delete white-space:nowrap) but it is not because that code does not exist in the html

see: http://pintotours.net/Asia/India/holidaysDelhi.html

It’s probably to do with fixed widths in the table, but I’ve played around with it and all I can manage is to disrupt the whole page!

Could you help me find out the culprit, please?

EDIT

Having had another look at the page in a small mobile I see that the content of Content seems to fit nicely. What seems to be very close to the edges is the #header and navbars.

However, the code for these is exactly the same as that for 100 other pages where I have no problems. The problems only arise in the holidays pages, which were added more recently.
