Hi, with the browser IE 8, the layout of my homepage with WB 2.8 and the templates Industry 1 is rather "crappy" and looks very rough. With Firefox, Opera and Safari, I have no designproblems.

What are for Internet Explorer 8 the right and optimal parameters in the CSS sheets of the template, to display properly the homepage?

here are my problems:

the pages are not centered anymore
the fonts are too big or rough, coarse,..
the page "Clients" is not displayed anymore
There s a white gap between the banner and the top menu

Who knows, how to fix all these snags

) ?

See here yourself:

Then your page is not ok even in IE 7.
Please validate and see what errors appear.

sorry but source code from your page is a big chaos

have a look http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jurgschat-consulting.eu%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

Code:

<strong><big>
<span style="font-size: large;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">Herzlich willkommen bei</span>
</span>
</big>
</strong>

have a look at the following pages, maybe it helps you to work out your code

thanks a lot for help. I noticed myself also the errors
I installed the template "Industry1" as it is. I changed only a few lines for modules or dropplets.
I added css tags to personnalize the design.

And now, in which file(s) have I to change something? index.php in "templates" directory or only the css sheet or the index.php in the root directory of my server?

From which file do come the problems?

As for the missplaced "<script>" tag ... definitive the "index.php" of the template,
as for the "HTML-Mess" the WYSIWYG Editor you are using, oiow the way you are
handling the content itself within it.
There are some couple of things i realy don't understand, e.g.

http://www.jurgschat-consulting.eu//pages/kunden.php

The // inside the link ... and on the page itself in the generated HTML-Source mess like

Code:

There is no argument "a" for a "<td>"-tag!
and caotic   like

Code:

<font color="#0000a0">Leistungen       

As far as i can see: you will have to remove all formatings in the content and rebuild the page ...
as this chaos will always result in problems, not only within the IE8

thats original industry and the source looks a "LITTLE" bit different to your source code

i think you have changed a little bit more than a few lines wink

Hello!

Please always validate all your sites before publishing them. In most cases when your site validates (X)HTML / CSS2 in W3C (like the F12-Developertools from IE8 provide some links, or the Webdeveloper Toolbar for Firefox) you have a good chance it looks quite the same in all modern browsers (not IE 5.5 or even Netscape... but how uses that in 2009?). At least now as Microsoft stated they want to achieve HTML5 / CSS3 fully compatibility in IE9 besides getting ACID3 test and some CSS tests right.

Yours Michael

Hi, thanks for your precious help. I fixed a lot of errors, particularly with the <script> and <head> tags.

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jurgschat-consulting.eu%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

shows still now 8 errors only. It's become very better, isn't it?

The site under IE8 is now better but not properly yet.

My menu entry "Kunden" cannot display under IE8 . I don't why. I'm still looking hard for the solution.

Regards,

MD

I'm wondering if I have to insert the doctype in both index.php, in the root path and in the template path and maybe in all pages.php

Is this doctype ok:

doctype only in index.php of template

Code:

<?php
// redirect if this file is invokded directly
if(!defined('WB_URL')) {
header('Location: ../index.php');
exit(0);
}
?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="de" lang="de">
<head>
<title><?php page_title(); ?></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php
if(defined('DEFAULT_CHARSET')) { echo DEFAULT_CHARSET; } else
{ echo 'utf-8'; }?>" />

when I insert your doctype code in the index.php of template, I have a crappy dull Display under IE8 but when I copy this code in the index.php of the root path, all works fine, good display and "Kunden" page is diplayed. How to understand this?

'cause you have a email-adress at gmx.de
I try to answer you in german:

Junge, in deinem System ist irgendwo absoluter Müll, ich hab das in mittlerweile drei Jahren mit WB noch nie erlebt, das irgendwelcher doctype code in der root-index irgendwas rausreißt, was er in der index des templates nicht könnte. das würde ja das ganze System ad absurdum führen.

Du sagst "nur noch 8 Fehler" - es wird langsam besser - also mach doch die 8 Fehler auch noch weg!
Wenn M§ mit der 8er-Version diesmal wriklich ernst gemacht hat und wirklich strict Standardkonform ist.dann vielleicht so standardkonform, daß es jedem Schußler/Rumfrickler/Baseltyp irgednwann ins Knie beißt.

Grüßle Bernd

*hust* Der IE8 ist in manchen Belangen gar nicht so großzügig wie seine Mitstreiter, wenn der Code nicht valide ist. Da kann es einem schnell das komplette Template zerschießen. Zumindest hab ich öfters Probleme, so >100 HTML Error Templates im IE8 auch nur halbwegs anzugucken (ja, es gibt den "Use teH old browser" Button... aber man ist ja faul). Ist zwar ziemlich abrupt, aber man könnte meinen sie wollen die Leute zwingen sich vom IE6 & Konsorten zu verabschieden...

wenn ich so etwas

Code:

<div>
<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type">
<meta content="Word.Document" name="ProgId">
<meta content="Microsoft Word 11" name="Generator">

</meta>
</meta>
</meta>
</div>

im quelltext finde und das mehrfach auf einer seite wundere ich mich das überhaupt etwas von der seite angezeigt wird bzw wundere ich mich nicht das der ie späßchen macht. irgendwo eiert noch ein thread zu diesem thema rum und dort habe ich schon einige hilfreiche links zur doku und selfhtml gesetzt.

bei dieser lernresistenz weiß ich auch keinen rat mehr huh

Words of wisdom:

CSS always use the following...

flow: left
clear: both / left / right / none
with: xxx px

This should fix most browser issues but you will have to make sure that all your divs have clear both and flow left in.

OMG, what a mess... You use a mix of several heads and bodies, and silly and faulty instructions. I can't imagine the original template is so crappy. If so, it should be removed from the repository immediately. If not, install the original template again and start fresh.

hi,

I would like to post first here my current index.php and css file from the template directory "industry1" in order to have your opinion.

BUT when I don't write the doctype, the <html>, the <head> in the root index, my homepage is crappy and looks bad.

I mean I have to write the following code in order to have a correct display:

Code:

That 's why two bodies, two html and so on...

AND I go round in circles.... What I write in backend, what I insert is not what I get in the front end. It's because of FCKeditor.

who can advise me? Thanks. Sorry when some remarks are redundant...
Now I'm stuck here and can't go further.

First of all: you should never have to edit the index.php in the WB root at all! Do not touch it unless you know exactly what and why you are doing.

Second: the code of the template index.php you posted contains weird stuff.

Third: you should never use multiple heads and body tags in one file.

Fourth: the "industry1" template is not part of the official repository. I only found it once in an old post in the forum, from 2007. I removed it from there. You'd better stop using it.

Look for another template that suits your wishes, from the official repository please.

Modifying a template is just about the same as working on a static webpage.

You can only use basic visual styling elements from your current stylesheet, like colors and such. Every template is built differently, and uses its own structure and tags. The index.php and stylesheet are not two separate entities that you can swap at will, they belong together for that particular template. You should never use a complete stylesheet from another template. If you do, chances are almost 100% that you site will not look right, and probably will fail completely.
