Display/Rendering Problems

Post by JPTN »

When viewing entries, the comment text temporarily does not appear. It is blue text on a white background. If you scroll a few times, it will show up.

This also happens to the "Add Comment" title and its border underneath it. Scroll a few times and it'll show up again.

The rest of the site has the opposite scheme, white on a blue background and there is not trouble showing other titles, entry bodies, the calendar, etc.

Anyone know what's happening with the rendering?

PROBLEM: Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP SP2
WORKS: Opera 7.54, Firefox 1.0.3

Also, Opera surrounds the entire page by a white border even though the mainpane is cellpadding is 0 and cellspacing is 0. Any clues?

Please post a link to your blog and hopefully someone can help you out--it's kind of tough without seeing the code, though :)

This is a common IE6 problem. Search google for "disappearing text internet explorer" or look on www.positioniseverything.net for a topic on that.

You'll need to fix some CSS markup then...

Thanks. I'll read up on it.

My blog's barely online right now... don't want to subject anyone to having to suffer reading through it just yet. :wink:
