CSS / XHTML page not showing in IE6 / Opera 2

[moirakris]

Ok I just can't figure out what is wrong here...The page looks fine in IE 5.5, NS 7 and Mozilla 1.2. In Opera 6.05 all I get is a blank page and in IE 6 one person told me all he seen was a blank page, the second person seen "a pretty shade of blue and that's it" :ulls out my hair::

Shows as error free in both the css and the xhtml validators,not that that's any guarantee of cross-browser compatibility of course, just thought it might help to make sure I didn't miss any oopsies. I have been going over it for well over two weeks and cannot fix the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

5.5 shows it as fine, bar a javascript error (object expected) on line 120.

There are differences between 5.5 and 6 remember. Look on MSDN.

Hi Moira,

you're js link
<script src=&quot;mouse.js&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; language=&quot;JavaScript1.2&quot; />

change it to:
<script src=&quot;mouse.js&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; language=&quot;JavaScript1.2&quot;></script>

With your right hand column maybe you can try to encapsulate it inside another div tag?

So

<div>
Code

// right column
<div id = &quot;r-col&quot;>
CODE
</div></div>

Oh and get rid of the lower case 't's in the column - looks freaky! lol

As neil is saying,
It's always a good idea to nest your divs, one &quot;layer for the layout&quot; and one for the content formatting. Something like that anyway.

But I think your problem above is because you have not closed the js link. /> is only for empty elements, afaik.

All I get is a blank blue page on IE6 w/NT4 if that helps at all... Darrell Mozingo

I fixed the js tag....I assumed since the script was in an external js and not on the page I shouldnt have the closing script and closed it like it was an open tag (still learning lol) Thanks for the assistance, it shows in Opera now with that fix. I don't have IE 6 so I will have to get someone to see if it works in there now before I will know if it's fixed on that end.

I am going to go ahead and add in the extra div /div around both columns but what the heck do you mean lowercase t's? I don't see any, don't have any in the code and not sure what you mean :::confused look:::

Also what is MSDN?

Thank you for all your assistance! Moira

really?!? really!?! I am going to faint! I have been banging my head against the keyboard for 2 weeks and all it took to fix it was that. :::Happydances around the forum:::

Oh and I blame you cian LOL I went to your website when I first joined the forum not too long ago and seen all those great guides and templates you have and I couldn't resist. I had to start fooling around with xhtml and css. I never realized how sloppy a coder I was til I tried xhtml either.

Thanks again!

Sorry Moira, my fault!!

Not you need to check my resources page, go to the bottom and hit the link to HTML-Kit. Here it is anyway,

This (free) editor would have picked out that error in a jiffy and corrected it for you. It will avoid damaging your keyboard (and your head) in future. LOL
