Re: Differences between Firefox and IExplorer
Hi Harkon, I second Sean's suggestion regarding checking out your CSS if your application looks noticeably different in IE and in Firefox. Also, the reason why your application looks the same in both the hosted mode browser and in IE is because hosted mode embeds an instance of your operating system's default browser. If you're on WindowsXP, then hosted mode is essentially running an embedded instance of IE as its browser, so it will look exactly the same as the compiled version of your application running in the regular IE browser. Hope that clears things up, -Sumit Chandel On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 5:33 AM, Sean slough...@gmail.com wrote: You shouldn't have to compile the source code differently depending on the browser. Depending on what browser is loading the main javascript (which GWT gets compiled into), a special .js is loaded for that browser. That being said, some times I've personally noticed things like formatting have been off on one then the other. Spacing, IMAGES especially, slight colors, things like that. What is different about FF and IE in your case? Is it the lack of CSS in FF? I would use Firebug to examine your CSS, make sure everything is there. I've had small bugs in my css, like too many brackets or something like that. IE will ignore it and parse the rest of the CSS fine, FF will ignore everything below the bug making the page look off. I've started putting new CSS in the beginning of my page so it's pretty obvious when FF finds a bug and ignores the rest of the CSS.
