Posted: Thu Aug 20, 2009 3:57 am     My site works fine on firefox but not internet explorer!  

Hi people,

Hopefully you can help i am quite new to making websites and have had some help with the site from a friend, its a work site which is needed to work on most used internet browsers

heres one of the pages not working:
www.xtraphones.co.uk/phones2.php

now i open the site in firefox - no probelems

when i open the site up in internet explorer you see it different and the middle panel just sort of disappears and images are where they shouldnt be!
I use Dreamweaver 8 to edit it and if you run a browser check it tell you the lines that have errors in which i have underlined.


1.<iframe name="section" frameborder="NO" framespacing="0" src="news.html" width=350 height=250></iframe>
2.<div align="center"><iframe name="section" frameborder="NO" framespacing="0" src="news2.html" width=350 height=250></iframe>
3.<a href="index.php"><img src="images/logo.gif" title="Xtraphones" alt="Xtraphones mobile solutions" width="245" height="39" border="0" /></a>



I have the whole code for the website if needed.
hopefully someone has the answer for my probelem!

Thanks For Your Time

Let's start by getting rid of the errors.
There is no such attribute as 'Framespacing" for iframes
See: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_iframe.asp
(iframes are not even needed, you could have used div's with an overflow attribute.)

I used the w3c validator and did not get an error on the title tag however there are numerous errors for using upper case tags in an xhtml document. xhtml is lower case specific. The image tags are not closed properly.
Example of properly closed image tag
Code: <img src="pathtoimage" alt="KF300" height="" width="" />

Take care of the errors and see if your layout displays correctly. I don't think it will because of the floats inside floats that are not cleared.
