Safari/Firefox problem with home page + Background help
« on: December 11, 2009, 03:50:44 am »
Forum Url: http://eckclan.smfforfree2.com/
Ok so safari displays the site ok, but with Firefox the width is kinda stretched

Firefox: http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z21/robwebb90/eX_Firefox.png
Safari: http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z21/robwebb90/eX_Safari.png

As far as i know it's ok with Internet explorer, only firefox is having problems. Any ideas?

Ok for the background, if you check the site or look at this screenshot:

At the bottom of the window, you can see the image tiling.. I had this problem before. Is there a way I could make 3 images?

Center one like the main background and then make 2 seperate images for the left and right?

In different browsers your forum will appear different. No way to change that.

I'm not sure what you're asking for your background..

You can't define 3 background images for the body of the forum using css.
What you could do is create 3 IDs in the css, set the background image for each ID then use divs in your footer, assigning the appropriate ID to each div.    If you need help with that I personally dont have time to figure that out for you until Monday.  Possibly someone else here knows how to do it or you could check some of the stylesheets posted here and see how it is done as I know there are several that could help you

Erm actually that is not "totally" correct.    You "will" see some differences but mostly table and form related as some browsers handle spacing with tables and forms differently.   With some tweaking though it shouldnt be that noticible
