looks fine in live view but most css not rendering in ff or ie.

As above. I know some css is working because of the background colour and text that is only applied from the css, but the positioning elements are all out of whack. I'm viewing it through the browser previewer in DW as the website isn't up yet. Thanks in advance.

    Most likely a path problem.  The answers to almost all questions in this forum are contained in your code.  If we can't see your page on line, we can't help you much. 

     

    #1 Did you define a local site folder in DW before you began this project? 

              Site > Manage Sites > New...

    Without this step, DW can't manage assets for you.

     

    #2  Ensure the path to all your external style sheets and scripts are correctly pointing to your site and not a file:///... on your local hard drive.

     

    #3 Validate your code and fix reported errors.  Code errors cause 98% of browser rendering problems.
