I just added a photoshop made, imageready sliced web page, or part of a web page and it loads correctly in IE but not in mozilla. If anyone can give me some insight as to what the problem is, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

According to the W3C validator at <http://validator.w3.org> , there are 164 errors on your page. Clear up some of those, and then have another go with Mozilla.

In addition, you are assuming that heights of things are going to be consistent in all browsers; they aren’t.

Re:

"div align="center" /p> /div
p TABLE WIDTH=400 BORDER=0 CELLPADDING=0 CELLSPACING=0 "

looks like IE is a little more flexible with the div align="center"

move /div to the bottom below /table.

Also use the Dreamweaver built-in validator. It will correct these problems automatically.

You are mixing html and xhtml. Pick one, choose the correct doctype and the correct markup for the doctype. Remove the nesting problems (ex:
<p><div align="center"></p></div> )and it should work.

Dreamweaver CAN be a good tool for laying stuff out, but you’ll never convince me it takes the place of writing by ‘hand.’

Nona: I’d never convince a code warrior to switch from Notepad, but Dreamweaver does an excellent job of creating clean code, if you use the validator and clean up code options.

I was an old code warrior eight years ago, but with Dreamweaver, I’ll leave that to someone else.

Yeah…

It’s one thing to be a stickler, and quite another to remain a Luddite.

Explorer and Mozilla differ in their rendering of some things (like margins and padding and something else, by sure).

Mozilla variants are better behaved though less used. Validate and you’ll suffer less differences.

and of course mozilla abides by the published standards while IE flauts them freely. just to be clear on that fact.

What Dave said….

I know Dreamweaver is a decent tool, but if you hand code XHTML you’ll have much better luck.

Also……..now I love Adobe, but the code that is put out by Image Ready is garbage. (Code put out by GoLive is awful as well.)

Your best bet is to slice the images and then using XHTML and CSS code the thing by hand.

If you know how to do it. If you don’t, please don’t.

Dreamweaver MX 2004 can do perfectly xhtml 1.1. It has improved a lot in that sense.

However polishing things by hand is many times needed.

PS. I do not know if GoLive does that, by the way.
