You should not fiddle with the base tag (unless you precisely (!) know what you are doing). Zope sets it automatically when it is necessary (and you did not provide your own one). Do I really need to hard code the site name like this, or is there some variable I can use? Do not do it at all!

[Zope] IE v. Firefox for viewing Zope sites
I've just put together a simple Zope website, but whilst it renders properly under Firefox, it looks dreadful using IE. Can anyone explain why? Could it be the CSS? -- John ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
Re: [Zope] IE v. Firefox for viewing Zope sites
Can you show us? It'd be easier to tell you the problem... It could be the CSS, or it could be the HTML, particularly the DTD - IE renders pages differently depending on the validity of your DTD - a good DTD gets your page rendered in compliant mode, a bad one (or none...) gets your page rendered in quirks mode. Or it could be many other things. Send us a link ;-) Cheers, joe On 16 Jun 2005, at 19:15, John Poltorak wrote: I've just put together a simple Zope website, but whilst it renders properly under Firefox, it looks dreadful using IE.

Could it be the CSS? It could be your CSS, but it's probably IE. I usually end up writing two stylesheets, one for IE and one for everything else. Getting IE to read its on is just a case of using the IE-only conditional includes feature: !--[if IE] link href=/stylesheets/ie type=text/css rel=stylesheet / ![endif]-- though you'll have to hard code the URL - ZPT won't parse it ;) -- Phillip Hutchings http://www.sitharus.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
