Recommended Posts

Hey , I've been into web design for abt 2 months ... and i've been having this annoying problem .. whenever I wanna define margins for any " <div " ... every browser shows it differently .... I only got internet explorer 7 to show it the way i want .. other browsers like Firefox .. Safari .. Google Chrome. .. show it in a wrong way ... can someone please tell me why ?

What JLI said is correct.

 

One of the best ways to solve cross-browser compatibility issues is to never add side paddings/margins to an element with a set width. Instead, put another div inside that div. Set the width on the outer div, and the side paddings/margins on the inner div.

 

Same with top and bottom paddings/margins. Never set top or bottom paddings/margins to a div with a fixed height. Put a div inside, and set the height on the outer div, and the paddings/margins on the inner div.
