I have a HTML template, when i view the original one it's all OK in
Internet Explorer, when i put it in my displayPage1col.cfm page (copy
paste from original that shows OK) the divs in the middle are not in
place anymore.

My question is, what is influencing this, it's exactly the same code
but now put into displayPage1col.cfm, so between the
displayHeaderStandard and displayFooterStandaard pages.

I only use a css style that belongs to the original HTML template.
Updated app, removed the javascript stuff just to check.... What else
could it be?

Anyone any insights?

Thanks.

it's almost definitely css. Use a tool like firebug on firefox, developers tools on safari, or F12 (I forget the name) on IE8. Look at what the div's are inhereting, they're probably inhereting some odd behavior from base styles.

I would always develop style in situ

Funny how putting a question sometimes can lead to your own
answer.....

I replaced Molio HTML tag with:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Now it works.....

Marco,

Most webskins use <cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="true" />

Wrap your html in cfoutput tags.

Chris.

also, I would suggest keeping the doctype, since I've found it actually makes programming for IE easier... I guess maybe the xmlns statement does the same thing, but I was having lots of problems between firefox & IE until I provided the doctype I needed....

just 2 cents

It was indeed just the doctype, just checked it, so just the doctype
works....
This is really great and i guess most of my previous problems with ie
were due to this....

Thanks.
