[Solved] firefox-8.0

Post by djemos »

After upgrading to firefox-8.0 some pages appear having underlying all the text.
Going back to previous version 7.0.1 pages appear to look good.
New firefox version has problem with style css?
Does anyone else see this behavior?
e.g. look this page with midori, firefox-7.0.1 and then with firefox-8.0

What is happening on my installation of Firefox is that the main a:hover declaration in style.css is being triggered and applied on all text on the page, whenever the mouse is hovered anywhere inside of the 6px margin you have set on the body element. Try commenting out the text-decoration: underline; statement in that declaration, you'll see the problem disappears (although you lose the text-underline on hovering links). I haven't figured out what is causing it exactly yet, but you should consider fixing the html validation errors for a start (there are a few css validation errors too).

Found the problem. In the <head> element of index.php:

Code: Select all

<meta name="generator" content="XOOPS" />
<a name="pagetop">
<title>Slackel - Hellenic Linux Distribution</title>
Remove <a name="pagetop"> from there.

The real page is theme.html where at the top is the line

Code: Select all

<a name="pagetop">
I want to have this line. I did not remove the line but i changed it like this

Code: Select all

 <a name="pagetop"></a>
And everything works now in firefox-8.0.

Previous versions of firefox, including midori had no problem with that line. New version of firefox wants the syntax to be correctly written.
Thank you for pointing the problem and helped me to solve it.
