Title: Browser Paroblems Last modified: January 25, 2017 --- # Browser Paroblems * [drowatzky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drowatzky/) * (@drowatzky) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/) * I have been told by friends that my page will not load correctly in Netscape or Mozilla. I was not aware of this because I’ve done all my work in IE. Here’s the site. [Unique Forms of Continuity in Space](http://www.drowatzky.com/unique) I’ve searched through the support pages and found references to things like MIME and other terms that don’t fully explain to me (a neophyte to the code and programming world) how exactly I can fix this. Any suggestions would be great. And while I may not be able to do anything about it today, I figured I go ahead and check on my options. Please be as clear as possible and I’ll be sure and ask questions as I go.

I’d be happy to put a pic up of it, but I haven’t quite figured out the whole uploading images thing yet since I just migrated from MT. 🙂 * Thread Starter [drowatzky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drowatzky/) * (@drowatzky) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64750) * Thanks for the feedback but I’m still hoping someone can help me with the original question/problem. * [Beel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beel/) * (@beel) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64754) * Things like: letter-spacing: none; might throw it off. * Thread Starter [drowatzky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drowatzky/) * (@drowatzky) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64878) * I went through the process of updating to 1.2 I replaced everything except the layout.css and the index.php. I’ve definately upgraded but now my page has none of the original formatting in any browser. I’m not overly worried since I still have the original information backed up and can return to that if I need to try it again. This means that the problem is the same now, only bigger. I don’t understand what is meant by “running the css validator” Suggestions from anyone on what to next. Many thanks. * Thread Starter [drowatzky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drowatzky/) * (@drowatzky) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64885) * I’ve redone the upgrade, this time erasing everything before uploading the new files. IE works fine again even though I still have some index.php to re-edit. That takes me back to square 1, no luck with Netscape and Mozilla. * [Root](https://wordpress.org/support/users/root/) * (@root) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64888) * Well those browsers can be picky. The only thing I have seen so far is that about half way down your css there is a padding: 10px; badly out of place. Do not know if that would cause this but it is a gross error and might be the problem. * [Beel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beel/) * (@beel) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64889) * Just so we can hone in on the problem, point the index back to the original css and if FF doesn’t play nice, we will be fairly certain your css is not the problem. * Thread Starter [drowatzky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drowatzky/) * (@drowatzky) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64897) * I replaced my altered version of css with the original, the green. I looked at my page in Netscape and there is still no formatting. I don’t know what FF is. I also looked for a random padding: 10px; and didn’t find one. * [Root](https://wordpress.org/support/users/root/) * (@root) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64922) * I do not know what width monitor you are on but I found a style properly formed and then way off to the right of it a spare padding 10px hanging there. It may not be causing this (no style viewable here in Firefox) but even if we do get it running that spare bit of padding is going to cause all kinds of problems. * Thread Starter [drowatzky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drowatzky/) * (@drowatzky) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64963) * I’ve returned the layout.css and index to their original 1.2 versions. Still no formatting in Netscape. I’m running on an Apache web server. In regards to the “padding” issue. If you let me know about where you see it in the css, I can look again. I remember seeing a 10px padding in the body of my posts to push text away from the left side of the box that borders the text. Not sure if that’s the same thing or not. With the untouched version of the css in place right now, I don’t know if that errrant padding is still there or not. A huge thanks again for helping out. * Thread Starter [drowatzky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drowatzky/) * (@drowatzky) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64965) * That makes sense but I don’t know how to change that. In my index, it says content type is text/html and that style type is text/css. * [AlHo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alho/) * (@alho) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-paroblems/#post-64967) * You have to change your (or convince your server administrator) to change it. I don’t know how redhat works, but my gentoo got a mine.types that contain the row ` text/css css This config is then included from my commonapache2.conf ( I use apache2, it might be called commonapache.conf or simply apache.conf) with the following few lines.
