Title: Layout Table in Firefox
Post by: rhonin on September 27, 2008, 05:56:40 AM
I've been working with Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 and I find that the layout tables are being very suborn when I try to view it in Firefox, which is pissing me off because more people use Firefox than IE. Anyways, the site looks fine in Explorer but not Firefox and wondering if anybody knows what the dealio is.

In IE (how it should look)

In Firefox (not so much)

The whole thing is assembled by a series of tables with my layout image made in Photoshop all hacked apart into separate sections with a table in the middle-ish for text.
If anybody knows anything about Dreamweaver and/or how to fix this that would be awesome!

I suggest you do not use tables for layout. Make the layout in CSS, and the bugs can be fixed much more easily.
Tables are for tables, not layout.

If you are new to CSS, I suggest you use this (http://www.subcide.com/tutorials/csslayout/) guide, it teaches you how to make a CSS layout, which is slightly better than a layout made out of tables.
Really, CSS is for layout, tables are for tables.

Try coding that layout in CSS, and see if the problem occurs, and post here your master.css, so we can find out the problem.
If you don't want to do that in CSS, post here the link to the website, so we can take a look at the sources, to find out, what's the problem.

// Oops, I'm sorry, I was reading another thread, and the last post was about 6 days earlier, and then I suddenly came into this, and just posted, remembering the last post was posted 6 days ago. Will not happen anymore. :)

I suggest you don't kick old topics.

Helpful hints, but this dude is looong gone.

Long gone? He was active here just last month.

But this IS a topic kick indeed. :\
