Instant Web Publishing in Different Browsers

Featured Replies

Hello, I am trying to see if anyone has experienced a problem with the look of their DB using instant web publishing (FM 5.5) on different browsers. I am using a entry-only layout for my DB. The layout is perfect when viewed with Internet Explorer 6.0, but horrible with 5.5. I don't know about other Explorers. The entry-only page looks o.k. with Netscape, but is still not perfect (ie. some fonts change, text boxes misplaced) Is there a way to solve this problem. I was suggested to use cascading style sheets to change the fonts. However, since the HTML for my entry web page is generated by FileMaker is it possible to add in HTML code to solve the problem? Is there another way? Any suggestions are grately appreciated -THANKS J.J.

IWP is WYSIWYG. AFAIK, the issue of which you write is well known. The only way to handle this seems to be through layout design, and that will not solve all the problems.

IWP writes the CDML code on the fly. You have not control over that aside from the db design.

Control is the reason so many developers turn to (or even start with) CWP.

Good Luck with your db design abilities.
