So we can almost play the game? Almost?

what did you do to your website, looks to me like all of the text got set to background color (or more accurately the background color got set to the foreground color)

What?

[Margalis]

Yeah on my IE the background and post text are both gray.

[schild]

I don't know why this is happening.

[schild]

Need web designer

I have an ie.css, it's not changing any colors, just fucking with the formatting a bit. Also, I can't find anything referencing ie.css. I have no clue why this is happening and I don't like it.

[Margalis]

Margalis to the rescue!

In style.css:

FONT-SIZE: 12px; BACKGROUND: url(images/bg.jpg) #333333 repeat-x center top; MARGIN: 0px; COLOR: #333333; FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','Verdana','Geneva',sans-serif

"color: #333333 "

Is the problem, that's the same color as the background. I would guess that down below you have colors being applied to post body text but IE isn't picking up the other style and thus is using the #333333. I spent a couple of seconds poking around in the CSS file and it wasn't clear to me where a different color was even supposed to be applied.

[schild]

That won't really help. Look at it in firefox. The background isn't showing up in IE. If it was just a font, I'd have fixed it. Basically, IE is being a motherfucker.

[Margalis]

When I downloaded the web page using IE I didn't even get the images folder.

Instead of:

BACKGROUND: url(images/bg.jpg) #333333 repeat-x center top;

I woudl try:

background-image: url(images/bg.jpg')

This might be good place to look at syntax:

http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/colors.html

It seems that IE isn't picking up the plain old BACKGROUND syntax at all

BACKGROUND: url(images/bg.jpg) #333333 repeat-x center top;

Well, first, that's for the background behind the content and it works fine. Further down in the CSS you'll see the .content and .sidebar background stuff. The correction you put forth "background-image:" only managed to fubar it for both firefox and IE.

[Tarami]

I would suggest doing it differently altogether. Make a background that spans across both columns (i.e. that includes the white area) and then just repeat-y and no custom alignment. The whole deal with background alignment is sorta irregular and I wouldn't rely on it to work consistently across browsers.

[schild]

I wasn't relying on anything across all browsers, that's site has been up since January and this is the first time anyone has said anything (which says a lot about IE and gamers).

[Tarami]

Ask for help but maintain the snarky attitude, that's classy.

Nor was I going for classy!

Also, comeon now, that's not even the tiniest bit snarky for me, you know that. And don't tell me browser compatibility doesn't drive you batty.

Letting Dreamweaver go through and close tags actually results in more issues. This is just unreal.

[schild]

Fun fact! IE6, 7, and 8 don't even work with any wordpress themes straight outta the box.

[schild]

YAY!

Finally found a decent looking theme that works in IE! Now to futz around with it. When I break it, I'll let you know! haha.

[Salamok]

just run it through an html/css compliance test and manually fix the tags, if you are leaving tags open your site deserves to look retarded.

[schild]

It wasn't me, it was the base skin, either way, it should all work now since I basically started from scratch.

[Yegolev]

Late and unwelcome advice:
Validate the CSS
Validate the XHTML

Also IE8 is balls.  Moreso than I expected.

[schild]

Re-did the "save" bed again. Awesome.

>_<

[Yegolev]

Worst.  Update.  Ever.

[Tarami]

Worst.  Update.  Ever.

I'm still doofing around in training, but so far it's pretty good. I found a hat, some shoes, and a gun that has an AOE effect. I throw it on when stuff is bunched together. I dig the fact that my cyborg appears to use five and a quarter inch floppy disks.

[Rasix]

Didn't get to play much before the baby needed attention, but I like what I see so far. 

[Quinton]

Congrats on launching!

Save/load is very nice to have.

I deleted my guy on level 3 of the virtual thingy when everything started kicking his ass. I think I did my stats wrong. I hope it's not one of those "There's 5 stats but 3 are just there to trick you into wasting points" things. Gonna make another guy.

Stats don't make much of a difference by that early on. I mean, sure, a minor difference, but really, things get harder after level 2. That's mostly what you ran into. What class were you?

[WindupAtheist]

Made a cyborg. Gonna do the same thing, only ignore all the stats besides "HIT STUFF" and "MORE HEALTH" and see how that goes.
