Internet Explorer - W3.CSS working fine on local, but not when copied to server

I have constructed a webpage using w3.css. 

When I see the page in internet explorer on my local computer running usbwebserver.exe, the page looks fine, but when i copy the page to our server - and then access the page via http://intranet/ the layout messes up. 

Does anyone know what can cause this? 

ps. The page looks fine in chrome, both local and on the server, but I would like to enable Internet Explorer, as this can open files in File Explorer.

Hi dsonesuk

I'm not sure what you mean, but I use this to like to the style.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://www.w3schools.com/w3css/4/w3.css">

What I find strange is, that the page works just fine in internet explorer when I run it locally, but when I copy to the server it won't work 😕

What version of internet explorer are you using? Either the css is broken somehow, or internet Explorer version does not support newer CSS3 display: inline-block or flex which W3css is possibly using to make parent menu sit side by side.

Hi dsoesuk

It seems to be a quite old version - 11.885.17134.0, the copyright says 2015. But as I say 

The real reason why I'm trying to use internet explorer, is that this browser opens windows file explorer when linking to files on local drives, which I'm looking for.

I would very much like to use edge, and it shows the page just fine, but I can't figure out how to open files via <a href="file://c:/">file</a>.

If I enter file://c:/ in the address field edge opens file eplorer just fine - in c:\ 

But if I add the path as a link on a html page, nothing happens when I press the link 😞
