Not showing right fomatting in Firefox 2.0

jerry

Hello All,

I have implemented datatables in my application and is working fine in firefox 3+, but in lower versions and safari, it shows table floating on right side. Could some one suggest what might be the issue?

Hi jerry,

Sounds like there much be a 'float' bug in the previous versions of Firefox - or something related. Either way, it sounds like it's probably just a CSS issue. What I'd suggest is to grab Firebug or something like that and fiddle around with the CSS until you are happy with the layout.

Hope this helps,
Allan

Hi Jerry!

I have the same problem. It works fine in IE, but in my case the table is shifted to the right by the width of the left floating "show entries"-box and I'm using Firefox v3.5.5

Did you find a solution?

Well I think I found a solution anyway... I just wrapped my table in a DIV and it worked.
Maybe it's a table bug in Firefox?

Hi tidelipop,

Thanks for the update - it sounds like a "float" issue has afflicted the table. If you are using my demo CSS then there are a couple of floating elements in there which can mess up layout when integrated into another web-page... Good to hear you've got it sorted now.

Regards,

Well I just discovered that this is still a problem in both Safari and Chrome, so if anyone has a solution I would appreciate it.

If you poke around with webkit's inspector is there anything which looks odd? Perhaps a "clear" is needed somewhere. It still just sounds like a CSS layout issue to me, rather than anything Javascript.
