Hi there

I am getting a lot of comments from visitors to my site saying they are having problems viewing my site properly using Safari & Opera. Today I had a comment from someone using Firefox who attached an image showing the site all squished and unreadable (haven't been successful uploading image to this thread) which is strange because I use Firefox, and it displays fine.

Also when I try and validate site using http://validator.w3.org/, the report comes up with heaps and heaps of errors for attention.

Over the past month I have spent a lot of time doing Google searches looking for a solution to fix these errors, and I just cannot find any easy to follow instructions showing how to rectify this. I have also looked at posts in this forum, but can't see anything that will help me.

What can I do to resolve these problems, as it concerns me that if people can't view your site properly in the browser they are using, they will not visit your site, and will move on somewhere else.

My site url is: http://anitaskinner.com.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Kind regards

P.S. I am more than happy to make a donation for help in sorting this problem out, as I am at 'wits end' with this, and just haven't been able to find any help!

Thank so much

Here is what I would do.

• Set to fixed width of around 1000px
• Use just one sidebar per side or one on one side and two on the other
• Maybe use a popup for the subscribe area
• Try another plugin for the slider (wasn't working for me)

Bottom line there is just too much content for my browser window. It didn't matter what browser. I tried Firefox, Safari, Opera, IE and Chrome. Many items overlapped and/or were squished at time unless I set the window to about 1600px which is way to wide for many users.

Just my two cents Neat.

I'm with Larry. And either you've got the featured content slider configured wrong, or there's a conflict with another plugin (maybe the peeling page thing in the upper right) or it's just not working. I see the black progress bar but no images. And it's too wide for the column it's in, so it's overlapping the sidebar to the right. Overall, just too much of a muchness, visually.

And this is just personal preference, but the font is huge. You could refine the look if you went smaller, as well as getting more content in "above the fold". I've looked at it in Firefox, Safari and Chrome.

I just checked the site... World of difference. Now I would just make the left sidebar a bit wider to fit the entire subscription form and perhaps add CSS similar to the following to reduce the space below the form and fit it into the sidebar better. Way to go.

#af-form-758182490 .af-body {
margin-right:20px;
padding-bottom:10px;
padding-top:170px;
}

Thanks to both of you for your replies.

Have made the adjustments you have suggested.

Paulae, I'm not sure which text you are saying the font is too big ~ is it text in sidebars, body of posts or post headline?

I think it's a shame this theme has the capability of allowing up to four columns (and I was trying to use them all too lol), but that you can't use them without causing browser issues.

I still don't know what to do about the validation errors I get when validating the site.

Thanks so much for your help.
