Any ideas why this CSS has no affect on FF but does on IE?

**Techmonkey** · 12-04-2008, 04:50 PM

I am customising some menu's and have the following code:

Code:

<td class="thead"><div id="tm_forumnav_head"><a href="http:www.mysite.co.uk/dev2/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=3">Information</a></div></td>

In my header template.

Then I have this CSS in the "Additional CSS Definitions" section:

Code:

#tm_forumnav_head { font-weight: bold; font-size: 30pt; }

In IE7 everything is fine. In Firefox, it is as though the CSS is completely ignored?

Any ideas?

hmmm - could be because the thead already has font-weight and font-size set... Also - you might try using pixels for the size attribute = 30px instead of 30pt --- Adjust size as needed, as I'm not sure what the px to pt conversion is...

HTH,

Jacquii.

Isn't it supposed to be ".tm_forumnav_head" instead of "#tm_forumnav_head"?

Ok thanks for the help so far guys but it seems like none of the css I put in the additional CSS section at the bottom of the main CSS file has any affect in Firefox.

Changing the pre-defined css attributes in any other section codes affect FF?

ANy ideas?

Also why there 2 additional CSS boxes ?

Yup.

# = id
. = class

Just tried after reading this post and it has no affect either as a # or .

Could something else be wrong?

I see quite a few differences between IE and FF, and even more in Chrome. Chances are that means there is something(s) that are triggering more than one error.

If I were you, I'd make sure to look in the .vbmenu_control_row2 area just as much as the tm_forumnav_head area.

Also, I'm not sure why you have the _head at the end of the tm_forumnav, because if you look here, there is no _head there, or anywhere else

HTML Code:

<tr class="forumnav"> 
<td id="forumnav_info" class="vbmenu_control_row2"> 
    <a href="http://forum.vbulletinsetup.com/f18/#">Information</a> 
    <script type="text/javascript"> 
        vbmenu_register("forumnav_info");
    </script>

So first:
I would try to remove the _head from the tm_forumnav, save it then see if it fixes that problem. if not, check to make sure that the more specific ruleset in "vbmenu_control_row2" is not interfering.
