just got my shiny new PP 1.7 up and running, hooked Delicious right up and it looks killer in Safari... but i open it in FireFox and it looks like, well, see for yourself:

...i'm not really experienced with this, so i'm not sure how to fix it. i know it should work on FireFox, because this guy's seem to be working just fine on my FireFox: www.canelson.com.ar

is this an easy answer?


thanks,

Looking at your site in FF2 on XP, it fine except your logo is missing.

I see that you've removed the style switcher links. If you visited the site in FF before you removed these, then you probably just need to clear your cache, or delete the style cookie that was set for the script.

might that logo be missing because it's a tiff?

i had to save it as a tiff to maintain the transparency around the text. any way around this?

thanks dakwegmo+

Save it as a gif if you want it to look right for IE6 users. Otherwise, save it as a gif. The logo isn't so complex as to require the photo quality that tiffs offer, and both gifs and pngs support transparent backgrounds.

ok. got it working as a gif... kinda.

now everything looks fines in FF, but there's a white border around the logo.

??

also, i notice the general font, like in the navigation bar, seems a little sloppier on FF than on Safari. why is that?

you can try the attribute
border="0"
within the <img src...> of your logo

The link in the logo is not working

here's my script for that logo as it has been:

<a title="back to ctfoto.com" href="http://ctfoto.com/"><img
src='http://ctfoto.com/logo.02.gif'/></a>

...not sure why the link isn't working.
how should i incorporate border="0" into that?

sorry. as much as i enjoy messin around with HTML/CSS, i'm not yet very good with it...

anyway, thanks for y'all's help.

cheer,

<a href="http://ctfoto.com/" title="back to ctfoto.com"><img src="http://ctfoto.com/logo.02.gif" border="0" /></a>



OR CSS would be better:


a img {
border: none;
}

YES!

thanks deewilkinsjuniorplus!

is your script automatically colored like that when you type it, or did you change it for my benefit?

sure would be easier to find stuff when it's written like that!
anyway, thanks again...

cheers,

You can download editors that highlight syntax when working with code.

I believe Notepad++ (http://sourceforge.net/projects/notepad-plus/) for Windows does this and is free. If you are on a MAC, there must be some free editors but since I use BBEdit and Textmate, I wouldn't know.

If you are talking about on the forum, you can highlight your code by wrapping it in or BBcode tags.
You can also use for non PHP / HTML code but the syntax will not be highlighted/formated.

A great FREE text editor for the mac is Smultron. http://smultron.sourceforge.net/
It's open source too!

one more little thing... when i pull the info screen down over the image (click 'About'), it seems a little off center, showing the photo at full brightness on the top and left edges.

i didn't mess with that code - as far as i know.
