• I did a website:

    Renoskateboarding.com

    and the issue is that when it is viewed on a pc via enternet explorer it alligns correctly, same witin firefox on a pc; but when you look at the site via a mac, it is unaligned. The columns are vertically higher than they appear on a pc computer. I built the site with a mac and had to adjust it for what most users have, but would like it to be visible similar on all computers. Any advice?

  • Not all that strange: your widths don’t line up.

    For instance: you’re trying to squeeze a 240px image in a div of 160px (sidebar_right), and there are lots of other examples, like #contentwrapper 300px width, which surrounds topContent 502px width.

    The fact that this site actually seems to align somewhere is based on pure luck, I guess.

    WOW!

    Ive resized the images inside the html, which is why they align. the question is, if they align, or if i make the widths accurate to the sizes of the sidebar, will it view similarly on all computers????

    Did you click the WOW link?
    It shows all 320 validation errors on your page. Try fixing these first, since it’ll throw browsers into quirks mode, and it’ll get you unpredicted results.

    How do i find the exact line and column it refers to inside wordpress

    Scroll down in your validation report to the line numbers of the source code, then typically anything above <div id="main"> is going to be in header.php, below that to footer is going to be in index or single or page, and below footer is in footer.php. Unless it’s a very custom theme and not adapted from a theme with the usual wordpress theme structure. [Invalid] renoskateboarding.com/ – W3C Markup Validator.

    I would delete everything and simply start over from scratch.

    There is WAY TOO MUCH going on on the frontpage:
    Too many colors.
    Too many videos.
    Too many animatet GIFs.

    Just too much!

    I would delete everything and simply start over from scratch.

    That’s a personal opinion, I guess, and not for this forum, but more for the “Strut your stuff” thingy.
