css problem with partials

[mike_255]

hello,

my and my group are making a console to set caching options and have
used css to style this console which is present in some partials we
have created in the view. we have used an external style sheet to
style the console and when using mozilla the console looks fine.
However, for some reason IE is not reading the css and we are not sure
why this is. was wondering if anyone else has had similar problems
when using css on partials?

p.s. i have checked the css out on the css validator and it passes

Hi Mike

I don't know how to answer this and other recent posts of yours.
Hopefully some other friendly frog will hop in with appropriate
suggestions. Many are just recovering from the post-vacation trauma...
(Nexus10, Yury... are you here?). I hope they find time to come back
to our pond too.

Croak!

I sorted out the problem, just added the css code to the
railfrog_admin css that was already in there rather than use my own
seperate css file. Seems that internet explorer automatically loads
the railfrog admin css for partials (most likely cos it is used to
style the page i guess). Mozilla loaded the different file no problem
tho. Guessi am finding out the joys of using CSS, all browsers process
it differently...

Hi Michael,

Getting cross-browser CSS to render uniformly is not as easy as we'd
all like -- this is just the beginning of the pain, especially if we
want to support IE6. Getting stats on IE6 usage just became harder
with the release of IE8 -- http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/stat.htm
.

Q: Would anyone have a problem if we required FF2, Safari, IE7 or
Konqueror for the admin UI?

There are CSS frameworks we could pull in to make the admin UI behave
consistently without such pain (though I certainly wouldn't want to
see them included for users' sites); and once we start _that_
discussion, though, it may not be long before a "JS framework" war
erupts...

Glad it works for you now.
