Jorgensen 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2019 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.

dsonesuk 901 Report post Posted July 22, 2019 Looking at nav bar? For some reason it is not linking to css styling, Your not using conditional comment to direct to IE specific styling and failing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jorgensen 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2019 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 😕 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jorgensen 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 But it seems that the w3 classes somehow works - such as w3-dropdown-content. Please see this video: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5vid8rmknzqekbr/20190725_problem.mov?dl=0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsonesuk 901 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 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.

Jorgensen 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 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.

Jorgensen 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 Hi dsoesuk It seems that I don't need to struggle with internet explorer, as I can open files with chrome, if i use this method: https://www.techjunkie.com/browse-and-open-folders-files-chrome/ But I'm not sure about security 😕 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsonesuk 901 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 What about Edge? it is more secure and supportive of modern CSS3, OR you need to identify what New styling is not being implemented and revert it to older styling that your version of IE supports. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jorgensen 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 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 😞 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
