Re: ie6 and xhtml

May not be the suggestion you are looking for, but I would recommend you get a pro designer involved who does this stuff for living. It won't only save you money in the long run, it'll save you hours of frustration which could be spent doing something else... :)

Subject: [Seaside] ie6 and xhtml

I am really struggling to make a css layout that works across browsers.
In fact I cant see any way of doing it.

I have just been told the following:

JDigital: keithy: get rid of the XML prolog
JDigital: It throws IE out of standards mode

Is this the case?

Any ideas or tips would be appreciated

many thanks in advance

Keith

So I have taken it out for the time being... and things are looking much
better.

I agree, so where does one find one of these super designers ?

Word of mouth? Google? Craigslist? I found ours on the title page at a book store.

Well, I wouldn't recommend hiring a designer unless you're making real
money on your site -- in which case you *obviously* need to hire someone
to do this stuff.

The XHTML problem comes from "quirks mode", btw.  IE6 doesn't know about
XHTML, so it renders it as "old fashioned crappy" HTML.  Thanks Microsoft.

I strongly disagree, if you are planning on making money with your site, you absolutely should invest in proper design from day 1. Obviously if this is just for internal use or for learning, no point spending money.
