Internet Browsers

[Bill214]

Hi Everybody!

Just published my website and hit a glitch! The website was made with Blue Voda and I am using Internet Explorer 6. Now on my browser, the site is perfect. All the links work and the layout is good. No problems. I tried it on my wifes machine, again with IE6, same thing. a neighbours machine (IE6) same thing. My son, using a Mac and Safari had problems with the research page (images, text and internet addresses tending to overlap). Another friend, a long distance from here had worse problems and she is using a PC!

This is an area that I have absolutely no previous experience with anad I would appreciate comments or advice! My website is at

www.bioelectricbook.com

Many thanks!!

OK...I checked it out in IE and Firefox and it looks fine... Do not worry about
Safari...most people have not even heard of it..And even less people use it.

If your site look s Good in IE your ahead of the game...The only way to get
your site perfect for every stupid browser like safari is to design a site just
for safari and run a script on the server that detects which browser the user
is using and it will switch to your safari optimized site.... We personally refuse
to go through this hassle for VodaHost (17,000 Pages)...I suggest you do the same.

*****,

Many thanks!!! It turns out that after I spent a day and a half correcting a glitchy page, one correspondant told me that on her machine it was still glitchy. I had my website checked out by you and about eight friends who own computers. Not a problem,! Turned out that she had not refreshed her browser since viewing the page and original glitches. Good way to learn tho!

The guy using Safari was my son! He uses a Mac, but we still love him anyway.

Re: Internet Browsers

OK...since he is your son...We will overlook his Safari habbit (for now)...But tell him he must soon repent and come back to IE and all will be forgiven.

Don't do it General Kate, MSN still has a lot of rebuilding to do on that one. View all the problems Nite Producer had with it. About drove poor
ez-ez crazy. EI 7 beta is a new monster in our midst. I'm finally done sweeping.

Kate- Jury is still out, http://www.vodahost.com/vodatalk/rev...10486-ie7.html. I know that there are several in here (George Hester ?) who are using it already and they might comment on their experience. Both times I tried it - the result was messy.

Circus - Did I miss your promotion to LC ? Congratulations.
