I've recently been designing a website to show my OPC transcriptions. I think it's now ready for 'publication' and it's been uploaded to a test site but I'd thought I'd better check how it worked with various browsers before going live.
I've tested it with IE7, IE8, Firefox, Safari and Chrome and it works with all of them except IE7 where it cuts the title in half.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you solve it?
Not sure if I can post the website address on here or not (it's a non commercial site) - mods?

Why won't my website work in IE7?

Send the link to me via PM and I will happily have a look at the source code.
IE - in various versions - is not a standards compatible browser and struggles with certain code. Are you using CSS by any chance? If IE 7 fails, then probably 6 and earlier will too....

As Mark suspected, it was due to the CSS file that I was using - the rogue line has been removed and the page is now displaying correctly.
Thanks to Mark for his help - website went live today!

Hi Gill
Is there any reason why I/we cannot be informed of your web site address, it is said to be non commercial.?
I'm not going to mention your occupation! (vbg)

Hi Jack,
Sorry, for some reason, I missed your post. My website is freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gillh/se_index.html" and contains baptism, marriage and burial information for the St Erme parish in Cornwall. All information is available for free.
I'm actually an IT Manager (so no reason not to mention it <g>) but my job doesn't involve website design hence my request for advice.
Btw my mother's ancestors were from Stockport and both my parents grew up there.
regards

Hello Gil
Just visited your St Erme website, and found several Carveth entries, so now I'll have to scurry to my database and see if any are "missing links.
My wife's Carveth family have lived in the Probus area and surrounds since the 1600s. Still family in Truro.
May be in touch.
Thanks
