Working with Tables

[andy6867]

Hi there guys... this is driving me crazy and is sure its a simple fix. Its to do with Firefox and IE and the use of tables.

 

http://www.jezmusic.net/web/recent.php

 

In Firefox it works great... in IE it messes up the menus in the header.

 

I would love to copy whats done in the playing.php page and use the Styles page but has no idea where to even start... if someone wants to take this on I don't mind offering something for your troubles. If you are interested in helping me get this finished please contact me andy-fox@comcast.net

 

<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
   background-color: #EAEFF4;
}
-->
</style>

<?php

include('../config/config.php');
include('../display/display.header.php');






      echo "<table width='80%' border='10' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>";
      echo "  <tr bgcolor='#6699CC'>";

      echo "      <p align='center'>";
      echo "      <font size='3' face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif' color='#FFFFFF'>";
      echo "        <b>Recently Added Songs</b>";

$select = $db->select()
   ->distinct(true)
   ->from('songlist', array('album', 'artist', 'date_added', 'picture', 'albumyear', 'cnt' => 'Count(*)'))
   ->where('songtype = ?', 'S')
   ->group(array('picture', 'album'))
   ->having('cnt > 1')

i believe that earlier versions of IE have trouble with the <dl> tag, what version of IE are you using..?

and what exactly is "messing up" in your code?
