Trouble with IE. HELP!

HouseOfRock · 06-08-2006, 10:44 PM

As usual Internet Explorer is making my life miserable. I am building a page on my website to display embeded videos, from hosts like YouTube and Revver. It works fine in FireFox (and Safari for that matter), but promptly fails in Internet Explorer.

I have no idea why this is happening. I've checked everything I can think of. The video pushes the content box down the page. And in most cases, the video won't play at all. HELP PLEASE!

Are they flash or just embedded mpeg?

I believe all these fancy new players (a la YouTube, IFilm, etc.) are flash. I forgot to provide a link for an example:

http://www.officialhouseofrock.com/v...ayer.php?ID=40

That's one from Revver, which is just a Quicktime Video.

http://www.officialhouseofrock.com/v...ayer.php?ID=22

That one is from iFilm, with a special player. Both cause the same problem in IE, and the iFilm one doesn't even play.

No one here can help me?!

I could not figure it out.

While trying to help, I noticed that in bright.css there were two #content. There should only be one. Also, I would stay away from min-width, max-width, min-height, anx max-height because this is only supported by Firefox, not Internet Explorer. That's probably what your problem is.

Thanks Daniel.

I made a temporary fix by widening the #wrapper div in IE. This at least keeps the page from breaking up. I still can't get the movies to play, but that's most likely a personal setting on my IE, that since I never use it, I'm not too concerned about.
