This site is ‘made’ using Google Chrome (or Mozilla Firefox when Chrome annoys me). Thus, it looks fine on Chrome (really? You sure about that?)
Occasionally I’m forced to check out how it looks on other browsers. Enter… Internet Explorer. What a piece of canine excrement that is! I intentionally left out which version of IE I’m referring to as the problem seems to apply at all of ‘em.
Widgets take on a life of their own – some are centred, some are left-aligned, whilst others can’t really seem to make up their minds on any given day.
HTML tags (and here I’m treading stomping on I-don’t-really-know-what-the-hell-I’m-doing territory) seem to do completely different things in IE vs all the others. Okay, so I may be over-exaggerating just a teensy bit here – spacing does completely different stuff. The rest, well that seems fine.
“And just what is your point, dear whiny blogger dude?” I hear you ask. Actually, I don’t hear anything – you don’t care, but I figured I’d put this out there anyway to excuse the sorry state of this site’s appearance in IE. And that, dear bored-of-crappy-posts-about-site-layout reader, is my point right there.
Clearly I am making all sorts of schoolboy errors, and I can practically hear all the seasoned programmers out there sigh into their coffee, but it’s far easier to occasionally post something like this than actually try to figure out what it is that I’m stuffing up in such a newbie fashion.
Fascinating?
Thought so.
