Is this a Firefox rendering error?

jerry · Jun 25, 2007

I use Firefox to surf...I just really like it better than the other choices.

But, I was surfing around and came upon a website that seemed to have an
error. So, I sent the webmaster and email about what I saw. He said that
they do not test for Firefox compatability (as IE is the major market
browser) and that there may be a problem with Firefox's rendering engine.

The page is at http://www.worryfreepc.net/compareus.htm. All of the site's
pages seem fine except this one. Is this a Firefox rendering problem? And,
yes it does display correctly on all pages in IE7.

It just bugs me not knowing. Also, I'd like to know if other rendering
abnormalities I have seen are FF related.

Thanks

I re-installed FF and the strange formatting cleared up (big spaces at top
and bottom of the text blocks).

My bad......

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/favicon.ico">

<!--Fireworks CS3 Dreamweaver CS3 target.

<td><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="22" height="1" border="0" alt="" /></td>

I make that 7 hits on the bogo-meter just in those lines. Particularly
for the _combination_ of first and last error, the site is simply
beyond hope and so I stopped worrying about it.

Pitifull. Truly pitifull.

(as IE is the major market browser)

Just like shutting the door of your shoe shop to two or three people out of
the ten that try to get in.

And a truly pitiful site.
