I’m heading to bed too. But I found this does this make sense to anyone?
http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/creep.html
The problem seems identical to mine.
I tried putting it into both css files, but neither worked. Of course, I am a noob, and likely botched it. Can someone show me where something liket this is supposed to go??
thanks lorelle — a large part of my problem is i don’t have full control over one stylesheet (e.g. the skills required) to begin with. The 2nd simply came with the theme…
Really, sorry for making such a deal out of it. I was making presumptions that if the code in the posts worked just fine, as did my bullted linked lists, it was otherwise fine… it sort of threw me. Obviously, its not. Lesson learned.
Otherwise… I still have this cranky text that wants to drift off the IE page leftward… with some weaving and bobbing along thw way. Any suggestions re your irresistible force: the IE-specific stylesheet and the @import rule?
Like i said, I am currently running an ie.css Thoughts?
I don’t mean to be whiney. My problem is that I’m not very good with code… yet. Based on what folks are advising on this thread, I’ve cleaned up the posts so that teh site is clean with the validator.
The kick was that i didn’t know that i couldn’t bullet list the html links without it throwing off the validator. That, and I was missing a few clicks on “enter” after code. But mostly my confusion was rooted in the fact those linked bullet lists worked just fine in IE and FF.
At any event, thanks for your patiences… Do you have any thoughts on straightening the text in IE??
vkaryl —
I have a 2nd IE.css up and going right now with just such java switch — but it came prepackaged as equix v1.1, and the IE css is bare.
Part of what is confusing me is how my code got so messy to begin with. Its all post related and I’m simply using WP as my editor — nothing fancy.
Any thoughts? And thanks so far.

In reply to: Changing URL — I Don’t want to Crash SiteTo be clear, the http://216.69.182.149/ host is staying the same . The database is therefore not moving. All I’m doing is redirecting http://www.existingsite.com from an old host to the new host that currently has http://216.69.182.149/ (my WP site and a redesigned static back end up and running.
Will that change your answer Macmanx???
Boy am i paranoid!

In reply to: Sidebar Issue — OK in FFox / Bottom w IE ???!!!Root — thanks for helping out. Does it seem worth knocking out that java code again? Do you think that will help with the allignment problem in IE??
root — the code getting flagged is what’s in my post. Why would that be happening if its working in FF??
Holdy Smokes! What on earth is going on here?? That code works just fine in FF — why is it getting all chewed up by the validator? It seems to be nitpicking on my formatting??
Really — is it a crime to be setting a bullet list in front of a linked reference?? Its referencing those and block quotes? What gives?

In reply to: RSS Feeds not workingIs it ’cause you test posts have no content?

In reply to: Sidebar Issue — OK in FFox / Bottom w IE ???!!!Ok — got that all aligned.
FYI, to have IE up, i reinserted the Java script. Interesting thing is the tweaks we did have fixed that up 98% of the way.
The only remaining problem is a drift in the text on IE only, the futher i scroll to the bottom. (i posted a separate topic on this… was not sure if you were done for the night and needed IE to at least be up since the site goes live tonight with a real web site name attached to the number static address. The change has been already ordered so there’s no going back!)
I don’t know if that helps with respect to why, absent the Java, IE is drawing up a blank even though the sourcecode says material is there.

In reply to: Categories: “File not found” error.Those look clean enough…
For kicks — copy your current sidebar.php content someplace safe where you can retrieve it, and paste this sidebar content over your current sidebar code:
<div class=”sidebar”>
- <!– Activity –>
<h2><?php _e(‘Activity’); ?></h2>
<!–This will show the last 10 posts, including the last one. To change the number of post shown
edit the ‘nuberposts=x’ to whatever value you want, and to skip the last one (or last 2, 3, etc.)
increase the value of ‘offset=x’ (default is “0” so it will start by the last post)–>
- <?php
- ” title=”<?php the_title() ?>”><?php the_title() ?>
$posts = get_posts(‘numberposts=10&offset=0’);
foreach ($posts as $post) :
?><?php
endforeach;
?><!– End of Activity –>
<!– Pages Just uncomment if you want a list of pages in the frontpage- <h2><?php _e(‘Pages’); ?></h2>
-
<?php wp_list_pages(‘title_li=’); ?>
–>
- <!– Archives –>
<h2><?php _e(‘Archives’); ?></h2>
-
<?php wp_get_archives(‘type=monthly’); ?>
<!– End of Archives –>
- <!– Categories –>
<h2><?php _e(‘Categories’); ?></h2>

<?php wp_list_cats(‘optioncount=0’); ?>

Does the problem still happen? If not, its your sidebar code. Start tweaking my code in for yours. If it still happens, just copy the saved code from your backup and restore it to its original.
Beyond that, for now…. Someone offered this to me with my problem — for me it did not work, but it was worthing checking out. Maybe it will help:
“For the dodgy blog, use this page to check the “site_url” and “home” values.

In reply to: Categories: “File not found” error.Also, Is there anything in your sidebar that suggests this was coded in there? Post that up if you are not sure.

In reply to: Categories: “File not found” error.I was in the exact same boat. The problem i had was that the url i was looking for didn’t exist anyplace accessible via the wp5 admin interface. By looking at called html references (e.g. for your categories) that pointed me in the right direction, which was to the correct .php files. Can you post up your categories.php code?
