Hi,

Could any one tel me, that why when I go to this link with internet explorer i see words like "Teahouse Coppersmith Ikat" at the end of the page (where it should be)

but when I go to the same link with firefox i see thoses words like shadows above the page.

Any idea what is going on here? and how can I solve it?

Thanks,

Shahin

call me suspicious, but with only 23 posts, I'm not going to click a link you posted without some explanation of what that link is.

I can't wget it - 404. So... What is it?

to attempt to answer your question, it's probably a style sheet issue.

From the page source "MSHTML 6.00.2800.1479" of the top page, the site is designed for 6.0 of Microsoft's trident layout engine and the other web browsers may not have been checked.

The link you supplied doesn't exist so we can't give a particular reason. Perhaps you could examine the source yourself and try to determine if there is a problem with the site's code or with Firefox's gecho engine.

This is the page I am seeing on Firefox. Note how the iframe isn't inside the table. On the windows page you posted, the iframe is inside a table but the other entries are just spaces. The "Theehuis", "Koperslager", etc entries don't even show up in your example.

The site may be serving up different pages depending on which browser you use. So any differences may be due to the difference in content rather than the differences between the html engines that the browsers use. You might try an experiment. Save a page from one browser and load the saved page in another.

Hi,

Thanks for your update,

I did speak to our web designer guys, and they said that this pages are not made properly for firefox, he is looking into the html pages and I get back to you on that.
