white lines …

    [not the rap song] 🙂
    I just was looking at my site in Firefox (I’m belatedly beginning to make the transition from IE to Firefox as the browser I use) and realized that though everything looked great to me in IE, my site suffers from these horizontal white lines in Firefox … especially in the posts where I have drawings posted (maybe because i’m using div commands?).
    I’m wondering what would be the best way to get the look I have in IE at the Firefox site… without messing up what’s working in IE. Harrumph. 🙂

    It’s likely the result of IE’s erroneous rendering of borders, padding, etc. However, it could just as easily be the fact that your entire website fails validation:
    http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//www.wump.info/wumpblog/
    All errors are listed. I’d start by reviewing web standards in detail:
    http://www.w3c.org/ followed by elimination of the errors listed above.

    Looks like I’ve got some serious work to do, though I think fixing some kind of bug in my title graphics plugin would get rid of several errors all at once.
    Using the validator is something I need to start doing. It’s not really something I’ve worked with very much but that’s going to have to change. Thanks for pointing the way though. 🙂

    With the images, are you putting the code all on one line ? It may have something to do with it.
    Many of your validation errors are simply because you don’t have alt=”” inside any image tags – easily fixed.

    I’m guessing that “alt” needs to be created by the plugin every time I do a title… but I’m not entirely sure yet. I think I’ll need to tackle the validation issue on another day, as I think it will take some serious concentrated attention.
