9 Most Common IE Bugs and their Fixes
As you all know, Internet Explorer is the most widely used browser across. But while designing a web page, you might have encountered many issues which are specific to only IE. In that case you might be wondered how to fix them as that fix might make CSS to behave differently on other browsers like Firefox etc.
Anyway we are not going to talk about the Fix across all browsers now. We will resort to finding out some commonly found errors while using CSS on IE. Actually i faced couple of such issues and had no clue in figuring out the fix for them.
While seaching for Fix, i came across a post in ActiveTuts+ which talks about these errors and their Fixes for IE. It helped me alot. So thought of sharing with you all...
This post talks about errors commonly found like:
- Centering Layout
- Staircase Effect
- Double Margin on Floated Elements
- Inability to have elements of Small Heights
- Auto Overflow and relatively positioned items
- Broken Box Model
- Misbehaving Floated Layout
- Space between Listed items
Hope these tricks might help...
