The Joy of CSS

March 12, 2007

Well, I don't blame CSS for how this site looks when viewed in IE6 (thanks, Microsoft). After making a few minor changes to the layout, I viewed my site in various browsers to make sure that it still looked right.

  • Firefox - Looks good.
  • Opera - Looks fine.
  • IE7 - Padding issue on some elements, not that big of a deal for now.
  • IE6 - What the hell happened?

After trying a few different things and getting increasingly frustrated, I started looking around for answers. After about an hour of searching, I found that my layout is suffering from the Creeping Text Bug.

I'm in the process of fixing this bug. In the meantime, my apologies if you are viewing it in IE6.

After a bit more research I found exactly what was causing the IE bug. Applying the Holly Hack to the blockquote element seems to have fixed the problem.
