Problems with Firefox

[enfinprintemps]

Hi there,

Hopefully someone can help out a newbie because I've spent all day on this problem and I'm at my wits end!

Basically, I wanted to update my website (http://www.radioactivethreads.com) that I originally created with Microsoft Frontpage (I'm no good at coding). So today I downloaded Trellian Webpage creator because I don't have Frontpage on my computer. I was able to import the code from the web site, alter it as I had originally wanted to, and eventually figured out how to upload it to my FTP.

Now the problem that I am having is that it works fine with Internet Explorer but none of my links or images are working in Firefox. I'm not sure about any other browsers as those are the only two I have.

Any input on how to fix this would be great, especially that which is simple for somewhat not fluent in coding.

Thanks!

There is so much Microsoft proprietary code in your pages that it is difficult to find the actual HTML so as to see what code the other browsers will actually see.

HTML Tidy may help clean up your pages to get rid of all the Microsoft proprietary stuff and make it easier to see what is going on.

Thanks, I'll try that!

Guess you got the links fixed as my Link Check in Firefox shows all good, but actually clicking the links brings up so really bad pages with missing images (contact link) and badly coded pages as previously stated.

Aside from Tidy, you might want to use the W3C Validators for each page:

CSS Errors (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/#validate_by_uri)
HTML Errors (http://validator.w3.org/)

Might eliminate a lot of the white space in your page. For example, a <p> tag appears and then you scroll for "miles" before you come to the actual paragraph start. :P

A proper DocType (http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-list.html) would be a great benefit to browsers. Missing URI on present DocType.
