IE is making a mess of my blog style.

I am unsure if this is a new thing or I just hadnt checked that section of my website before. However using firefox everything is nice and happily right aligned, but i just checked it in IE and it's being retarded and pushing everything ot the right instead and I can't tell why. I looked through my css and i cant see anything as to why it should do that I even tried tacking a text-align right on the body tag and it made no difference. I'm pretty sure the original template i used was mt-plainjane then i started changing the css and chucking some extra stuff in the main template file. I don't think IE was screwing with it after that however (though I can't remember how much i checked it) I had installed a html nugget and the toggle plugin just earlier and was checking if the edit thing appeared when i am not logged in, i use IE to check non logged in stuff, and i noticed the problem.

I am using serendipity as a sort of content manager for my new website which thankfully is still in a testing location.

My site is adult content - and the serendipity part is here http://trollsb.com/melanienew/serendipity/

Please tell me where I have messed up or if IE is just retarded and how can I make it behave either way.

Thanks.

Hi!

Did you try something like

.serendipity_entry {
text-align: left
}

to fix a left-aligning?

Is that a typo? You want your text to be left aligned, correct??

Try adding the following to your style.css:

Code: Select all

#mainpane {
    text-align: left;
}

This will left-align everything below the header/banner, and above the footer.

yes i wanted everything to the left. I went through and had to to put text align left on pretty much every style. I can't understand why IE would default to right.

But i got it all fixed now

thankyou.
