topnav not sowing on some OS and Browsers

Hi, thanks again for this great portal.

im targeting 4.0 Framework.

on some computers and browsers, the TopNav doesn't appear. (for example vista/ie7, xp, windows 7/chrome& ie8/7)

on the other hand on some it does (vista/chrome & firefox).

i tried changing the skins, playing with the css with no success.

Can someone point me to a way to solve this ? even a creative solution can help.

Thanks

Buzi

Hi Buzi,

The skins not depends on the OS , it is depends on browser standards . The browser standards may be different in browsers. You can see some css files(IESpecific.css ,IESpecific.css) in you skin folder that can set correct css classes  for different browsers.

Hope Helps,

Asad

Re: topnav not sowing on some OS and Browsers

hi Asad,

seems to me this is not a Styling issue. what i have noticed now is that the browser is not rendering the text itself. (and its not appearing in the code)

for example, this is the source code taken from the login page as viewed using IE7/IE8:

 

 

<div id="ctl00_mainContent_pnlStandardLogin" class="floatpanel">

    <table id="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl" class="login" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse:collapse;">
    <tr>
     <td>
        <div id="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_pnlLContainer" onkeypress="javascript:return WebForm_FireDefaultButton(event, &#39;ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_Login&#39;)">

            <div class="settingrow">
                <strong>
                <label for="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_UserName"></label></strong>
                <br /><input name="ctl00$mainContent$LoginCtrl$UserName" type="text" maxlength="100" size="35" id="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_UserName" />
            </div>
            <div class="settingrow">
                <strong><label for="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_Password"></label></strong>
                <br /><input name="ctl00$mainContent$LoginCtrl$Password" type="password" id="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_Password" />
            </div>
            <div class="settingrow">
                <input id="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_RememberMe" type="checkbox" name="ctl00$mainContent$LoginCtrl$RememberMe" />
            </div>
            <div class="settingrow">
                <input type="submit" name="ctl00$mainContent$LoginCtrl$Login" value="" id="ctl00_mainContent_LoginCtrl_Login" class=" jqbutton ui-button ui-widget ui-state-default ui-corner-all" />
 

as you can see, the labels don't appear.

this also happens with labels and button text too in other pages.

any idea why ?

Thanks

Buzi

Re: topnav not sowing on some OS and Browsers

For me all things are fine in firefox and IE8(on vista). What is exactly your browser that don't show topnav?

Re: topnav not sowing on some OS and Browsers

This is strange, im running Vista and IE8 8.0.6001. (also compatibility mode same problem) chrome and FF are ok.

also with my client they have the same problem with windows XP

could it be a .NET 4.0 framework i have installed ?

Re: topnav not sowing on some OS and Browsers

I'm testing your page in a Windows vista machine with IE8.0.76 and with a XP machine and IE 7.0.57 the top nav is displaying well in both machines.

The .NET 4.0 framework are used for the server not for the client machines so I don't think you can go this way
