Question And Again!

Hi All,

Another css problem and I am guessing another conflict with the template.

Had this image sent through from a user, using the latest Firefox on XP.

I am using FFox on OSX and not having any problems so I am guessing its just a windows FFox issue.

Is there a way to make sure Kunena uses its own CSS so the Joomla template's CSS doesn't cause any conflicts or are there aspects of the Kunena template that need to use the Joomla template's css?

Another question, how do you go in testing other browsers especially Internet Explorer when you use a mac and don't have access to a windows machine. Is there a trade secret???

Yes, you can ensure that one or another CSS takes precedence: use the !important directive.

For example:
... {
...
width: 100% !important;
...
}

Virtualisation (i.e. load Windows for Mac over Mac OS) or buy an "el cheapo" PC for a couple of hundred dollars.

Thanks again Sozzled

Had a funny thought you would say that!

With using the !important code, is there a way to add it once to the whole css file or does it have to be added to each piece throughout?

I really don't know without thumbing through a CSS manual. Sorry, mate, I can't answer that question.

Still having trouble working this problem out.

Does anyone have FFox on windows that could have a look for me?

Cheers

I've looked at your website with Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7, Firefox 3.5.7 on Windows 7, Internet Explorer 7 on Windows Vista and Firefox 3.5.1 on Vista. No problems like you've shown.
