That's about it. I'm not a PHP guru or anything. I've set up several Serendipity blogs, this one is on our intranet for use by our IT staff to begin creating a searchable database of problem resolution as well as tracking software/hardware installations. In Firefox, no matter which style is chosen, the index page looks like arse...plain, white, and formatted all kinds of crazy, but the other pages (entry, admin, etc) all look fine. In IE there are no problems with the index page. Is there an easy fix for this?

Thanks!

I have never seen that. What does the HTML output of the page look like which looks like ares in firefox? Can you copy+paste it to an URL on the internet, so I can look at it?

Regards,
Garvin

I'll have to post screenshots for you because it's on our intranet.

Firefox 1.0:

IE 6:

If I put the calendar on the right side, it stretches out to 100% of the page width and looks hilarious. I'm sure this is something minor that a PHP person could spot in a heartbeat if he could see the html output. I'll post that too, I guess....

F.Y.I.....I can't be the only one...right?

Posted: **Fri Jan 21, 2005 9:43 pm**

I wish I could edit my own posts.

Ok, it's not your code but my apache webserver. I have tried several different versions of serendipity, including 0.6.p13, which I am using on my own personal website and which works great with Firefox, and it does exactly the same thing on my Intranet...plain white index page. I'm clueless at this point. My httpd logs and php logs don't show any errors. I'd love to get this working, because - and it's about time I said it - Serendipity rocks. Thanks for it.

Live HTTPHeaders could prove useful. Is FF requesting the CSS? If so, what is the response?

Posted: **Sat Jan 22, 2005 12:18 pm**

Yes, you might want to open 'http://yoururl/blog/serendipity.cs..php' immediately and see if FireFox shows problems with the CSS code?

Garvin
