CSS Issues at vishwebdesign Home for Vishal Beersye on web

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is the language used to style web pages, the texts, the images, for positioning elements. I guess you should be knowing the basics of xhtml/css designing before reading my articles about css issues.

Why do i have a bug in my display on Internet Explorer when everything is looking fine on firefox? What are these differences in margins? Well, we designers often get many problems when doing cross-browsers support. Different browsers have different ways to intepret some css.

Go through my articles section below to know more about xhtml and css designing.

Overview of css issues

Cross-browser support can sometimes be a very troublesome task. When we have to slice templates, we must take into consideration that there are differences in browsers' intepretation and we must not indulgde in hacking our css codes just to have pixel-perfect designs.

  • Use css hacks, like box-model hack only if you have a difficult client who insists on having pixel perfect designs.
  • Some browsers have a default margin and padding value assigned to block level elements.
  • Avoid over-riding your styles too much in your css. It will keep you out of troubles when you have to modify your template later.
