Mac OS 10.x, IE, CSS problem

[stevenha]

I've got a problem I can't seem to understand or fix. My site uses a CSS stylesheet to achieve a liquid layout, left, center and right columns.

On a Macintosh, OS 10.2 ( maybe more), 0nly in Internet Explorer, my Columns get all screwed up, and my content in the Center column shifts over to the right edge. My left column seems to inherit the intended width of the right column, but maybe thats an illusion.

I don't have a Mac, or enough experience with CSS to solve the problem. There's a couple things about my CSS that might be noteworthy ( for unnecessary dumbness). I use a z-value of -1, and I am right-aligning the width of the right column's contents.

Could someone with a Mac, Internet Explorer, check out my site, and let me know which versions of IE and OS are causing problems.

The site is www.halls.md

Thanks
Steve

Your 'p.wfdav' class seems to be the problem. I would image it'll cause a problem with some Netscape users also. Where did you get this code anyway?

[stevenha]

OK, Thanks. It turns out those classes weren't even being used anymore, so I deleted them from the stylesheet. Can you test and let me know if the problem is fixed?

[Vin DSL]

Looks fine to me, but just so there is no misunderstanding here, I'm using IE, stevenha. I simply captured your CSS file and was checking it out. The code looks much better now IMHO...

[Vin DSL]

Hrm... I just looked at your page using Mozilla Firebird. The graphic on the left is missing, as well as the disclaimer, and so forth, on the right side, but all the stuff in the center looks fine!

Here are screenshots of ie5.1.7 in classic mode on os10.2 (os9.2.2 emulator inside of 10.2), IE 5.2.2 in os10.2, and safari 1.0 in os 10.2

Mike, those screenshots were very helpful. Thanks. I've saved them, so you can delete them from your site, but maybe you can leave them up for a day or two longer, in case other visitors have seen similar problems.
Vin, I think the graphics don't show in Mozilla / Netscape, because I was using a z-index of -1 in my CSS for the right column. I've now removed that z-index aspect in my stylesheet.

[Vin DSL]

The right column is coming up fine in Firebird now, but the left graphic is still missing...

Your site now seems to be OK in IE on the mac.

Thanks Mike,
Boy you are fast. I had only uploaded the pages a few minutes before your latest reply! I'm still testing the pages actually.
