[WSG] IE6/7 behaviour

2008-06-24 Thread Rob Enslin
Hi all, if this is off topic I apologise in advance.

I have a slight issue with IE (surprise surprise) on a page I'm *working*
on. In FF and Safari (PC and Mac) my page is centred (#wrap). In IE it's
not. Although not a standards-based question (I think) I wonder if anyone
has the 'fix' for it?

Code CSS snippet:

body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

#wrap {
width: 832px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

The page: http://www.servicemanagement.co.uk/new.htm

Many thanks in advance,

Rob

Hi Rob,
Try adding text-align:center; to the body and text-align:left; to the #wrap.

Sorry...forgot to complete the code...you have to further align the text
left in the *#wrap *

#wrap {
width: 832px;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align:left;
}

I assume by IE in this case you mean IE6, not that it's younger brother
doesn't have its share of problems ;) In IE7 centering a column like this
should work.

But what Gonzalo said should work. He just beat me to it :)

If you're interested in trying a different way, have a look at this:

Maybe better to trigger standard mode in browsers first, and add fixes
later.

The combination of declarations you have now is a somewhat new one - to
me at least. An XML declaration has no place above an HTML DTD in an
HTML document, and the DTD is incomplete and triggers quirks mode in
all browsers...

http://gutfeldt.ch/matthias/articles/doctypeswitch/table.html

If you really want quirks mode rendering, you may as well delete both
these lines...

?xml version=1.0 ?
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN

Indeed, the XML declaration has no place here, and XHTML Markup is being used 
with an HTML 4.01 Transitional (?) Doctype.
