Blog theme fixed

Sunday, November 9th, 2008

Having found that my theme rendered differently (and somewhat horribly) on each different browser I have updated it so that it now renders exactly the same on the following platforms and browsers:

Windows:
  • Explorer 7
  • Firefox 3
  • Safari 3
  • Chrome
Mac OS Leopard:
  • Firefox 3
  • Safari 3

This is mostly thanks to Eric Meyer’s CSS Reset which makes all of the above browsers behave roughly the same. I did find that IE seemed to ignore some z-index stuff so I had to move the bottom fixed position div above any of the content of the page. I also found that I had to set the wmode parameter of the flash video posted a couple of weeks ago to transparent because firefox, chrome and safari still rendered it on top of everything else when it was set to opaque.
