    Quote formatting IE 8 vs Firefox and Chrome?

    I noticed that the nice background color and borders I did for IE 8 and above, is not appearing in Firefox and Chrome?

    What can I do to support these browsers as well?

      The differences between the way browsers interpret the same code is what makes HTM styling a source of major frustration for webmaster ever since Netscape took it upon themselves to invent the <blink> tag.

      But questions on custom styling need to be asked on www.vbulletin.org (There is a styling forum and a VB 3.8 styles & graphics forum)

      The short answer is to Google search for your issue and read-up on work-arounds others have come up with or experiment with your own.

        Thanks Joe, could you at least tell me where in the code I can change this? Then I can figure out the rest.

          I really don't know, I'd imagine wherever the code your customized is to create those effects to begin with.

          The background colors look the same to me. In the screenshot all I really see different it the border colors, and I know IE has more pronounced borders than FF/Chrome- that's pretty normal.

            Got it, very easy:

            Template: bbcode_quote

            Change:

            <td class="alt2" style="border:1px inset">

            To:

            <td class="alt2" style="border:0px">

            Now it looks perfect in all 3 browsers
