I was wondering if someone could offer me some advice. I have the following code wghich renders perfectly in IE, but in the other browsers (Netscape, Firefox, Opera) it gets all screwed up :annoyed:. Here is the code:


<HTML>
<HEAD>
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 3.2//en">

<div id="headbanner">
<img style="position:absolute; height:150px; width:500px; top:25px; right=100px; z-index: 1"; src="Headbanner.jpg">
<img style="position:absolute; height:25px; width:25px; top:35px; right=559px; z-index: 3"; src="bigw.gif">
<img style="position:absolute; height:25px; width:25px; top:35px; right=537px; z-index: 3"; src="bigo.gif">
<img style="position:absolute; height:25px; width:25px; top:35px; right=515px; z-index: 3"; src="bigr.gif">

<img style="position:absolute; height:25px; width:25px; top:35px; right=176px; z-index: 3"; src="bigu.gif">
<img style="position:absolute; height:25px; width:25px; top:35px; right=154px; z-index: 3"; src="bigr.gif">

<img style="position:absolute; height:25px; width:25px; top:35px; right=110px; z-index: 3"; src="bigh.gif">
</STYLE>

</HTML>


I was wondering if someone could offer me some pointers as to modify this code so that it renders correctly in all browsers.

TIA for any help and advice! :thumbs:

do you have a live page to view?

379364 2005-08-09 09:24:00 Hi Bartsdadhomer!

I have uploaded the page here: www.god-zone.org.nz

You can have a lok at the way it renders...I looked for IE 7 but all I could find was a beta version...it renders okay in IE6 SP2...but all the other browsers, as I have stated, screw it up...perhaps I'll have to try linking to an external style sheet...but even then I am concerned that the rendering might get screwed!

Any ideas?

Thanx,
Brian

379365 2005-08-09 10:00:00 you cant use right as a way to set the location.

as per the CSS way of the world everything has to be set from the left.

379366 2005-08-09 13:05:00 Why not make the whole banner an animated gif? vapo (5203)
379367 2005-08-09 13:44:00 Why not make the whole banner an animated gif?
Yeah, I agree with vapo, thats quite overkill for a 'simple' banner.

@rob: nope, you can use right, left, top or bottom.

Is this what you are after, I will let you muck around with the final layout, too many numbers for me.

That is excatly what I am after....I tried it in the different browsers and it worked perfectly in all of them...Thanx Robb99! I had a look at your source and see the changes are extremely subtle...but it works!

I know the numbers are a bit much...sal and vapo suggested creating the whole thing as an animated gif...perhaps they can point me to a site that will show me how to do it...

Thanx for all the help...it's really appreciated :)
