CSS & XTHML : IE6 & 7 Bug
Reply With Quote
Hello Benz11ne and welcome to the wonderful world of Web Design!
Just like you, I'm from a print design background (layout editor for newspapers) and I started in Web design last year.
The problem with older versions of IE, as you discovered, is that they can't read CSS codes correctly.
However, there is a way around it.
You would need to put this code within <style>:
<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="iestyles.css" />
<![endif]-->
Basically, you have to create a different css file (in this case, iestyles.css) to fix the problems you are having. The <!--[if IE]> basically says that if someone is using IE, then the IE browser needs to use that special css file.
Now, there are different <!--[if IE]> codes, such as <!--[if lt IE 7]>, which means that if the user is using IE 7 or less, then that browser should use that particular css file. If it's IE 8, then use the normal css file.
Here are a few links that should help you out. Best of luck!
