newseed Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Code the site to render correctly in FF. ALWAYS validate your code during your progress so you can catch your errors.Now look at the site in IE. You may or may not have to change anything but just tweak a margin or padding here and there. If you do have to make changes that can't be resolve for both browsers, then you would make sure it works in FF and then use Conditional Comments for IE. You can either embed the styles or you can put the css in a style sheet and use @import.You don't have to make two seperate html pages for each browser.Do a search for 'Conditional Comments' and you will find more info how it works. Avoid hacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vchris Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I know there's the conditional comments but I have always used 1 stylesheet for all browsers, I just find a way to make it all work. To me it's just that much cleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
