If you are using Mac OS, you probably noticed that the recent redesign of the site is definitely not Safari friendly (the site is nearly unreadable with this browser).

I do not have my Mac Mini yet (I just miss the port of the Symbian toolchain on MacOS to switch Sad  ) so it is very difficult for me to solve this.  If you have a Mac and know a little bit on webdesign and CSS, then your help is welcome !

Thanks a lot.
Eric

Hello Eric,

Two things:

a) The FORUM pages look alright on safari. Only the pages with the ads on left and right side look a little bit squeezed.

b) Your css should be alright actually. If I save your web page on Mozilla (Firebird) and then display it on Safari, it actually looks alright. Why saving on Mozilla? Cause you can't save a complete page on Safari. I could send you the files saved, if required and you could analyse them.

I'm not sure, but that might give you a hint.

Cheers,

Andre

Hello Andre,

Did you try to read a page using Safari directly instead of going through a page downloaded/saved with Mozilla ?

I received a snapshot of Safari browsing the main web site  and it was not just a little bit squeezed: Fonts were enormous, and the placement of columns was not OK.

Cheers,
Eric

Hello Eric,

Yep.

open page directly in safari: fonts enormous and placement o=f colums wrong

open a saved page in safari: it looks alright.

hhmmm  Huh:  strangely enough, I was amazed but have no clou at the moment.

Cheers,

Andre

Then I am interested in getting a zip with the page saved by Mozilla.

I suspect my HTML code still contains a lot of errors and these may be fixed by Mozilla when saving the page....

Thanls a lot for your help! Smiley

Hi andre,

I think this should be better know. You were right on CSS: I just have to clean up the HTML code and close correctly my tags.

Cheers,
Eric
