HTML in Internet Explorer Displays Different

[MnM]

I'm not sure sure what forum to post this question in so I thought I'd start here and see if anyone had any ideas. I have a webpage on our intranet that some of the html can only be recognized in IE 5.5 or above. No probelem all of the computers that are viewing this have IE 5.5 or above on them. My problem is one of the computers browser is not viewing the page like it is supposed to. It has the same version of Win 95, IE and the font in IE as all the other computer do and they display fine. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Browser related or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

can you give a description of how it is not displayed as it should be. What should it be displayed as and what does this one browser get instead? Klae

What I have are input boxes except when displayed right it doesn't display the entire input box, only a line on the bottom (border-bottom: 1px). However, in the one browser it will display the entire input box like the style= doesn't even exist. An example of my code is below:

<input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;node&quot; size=&quot;21&quot;  style=&quot;border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px;
border-top: 0px; border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(255,255,255); font-weight: bold&quot; value=&quot;Name&quot;; onFocus=&quot;blur();&quot;></font></td>

If you take out the size attribute of the input field then the style sheet works much better. rgb(255,255,255) is a white colour. Is this confusing the appeareance on the page? If I set it to black (rgb(0,0,0)) then I get what I think you want. Klae

Sorry my code I included should have had rgb(0,0,0) not rgb(255,255,255). My code I have does have black lines on the bottom except when looking at in on that once computer thus I do have rgb(0,0,0). Also taking out the size attribute didn't change how it looks on the computer that displays it wrong. Any other ideas???

HAve you tried clearing the cache of temporary internet files on that one computer? Go to view source on the computer that it DOESNT dispay right and see if the source viewed is the most upto date code. If it isn't then delete the temporary files. I think it is a good idea to regularly delete the temporary internet files of my browser(s) when developing web pages as you can waste a lot of time updating your code only for the problem to be the same one again and again because the browser is reading from cache and not the most updated code.

Been there done that. I've narrowed it down to what I think the problem is....for some reason it's not recognizing the style attribute. I tried using the style other places besides the input boxes and it still will not recongnize it. For example I did this:

.....

<style>
h1 {color:red}
</style>

.......

<h1>Hello</h1>

On every computer except the one I'm having trouble with Hello was red, the troubled computer black!!!! It's a strange deal. Any more ideas....your guess is as good as mine!

You might want to look in the internet options and make sure the same stuff is enabled, also check the display and make sure the colors are the same, this shouldn't matter, but you never know...you can always just put the font infront of where you need it to..anyway I'm bored and browsing through..good luck!

Checked that too, that was one of the first things I did. Everything is the same. Thanks for trying though!
