PostPosted: Thu Dec 23, 2004 12:49 pm   Post subject: [ Solved ] Problems displaying background color (CSS)

code:

.pageNavRight {
        float: right;
        width:178px;
        padding: 2px;
        margin: 1px;
        background-color:#F5f7f7;
        border-left: 0px;
        border-bottom: 0px;
        font: small Verdana,sans-serif;
}


This works perfectly on IE, Firefox..
But if i try it on any browser on the MAC, the background-color doens't show up.... any ideas why?

The pageNavRight is used in a <div> tag as a class
<div class="pageNavLeft">

But for some odd reason it doesn't work (on any browser on the mac).
BUT, when i used it as a id and not a class, it worked on all browsers except W3C HTML Validator says I cannot use the same id multiple times.

Any idea's on-- what's wrong?
Thanks.

Nevermind it is showing up.... BUT
On the mac for some odd reason, the colour is so light that it's white if you view it from the normal angle, I have to twist my head to see a diffrence in colour... :S

Anyone know what to do for that?

This is because Windows doesn't know what the cuddle it's doing with regards to color calibration, while the Mac does. You're seeing it right on the Mac. You've just gotten used to things being wrong, so when they're right it seems wrong.
