Question

Having Display Issues in Explorer

I have a page that renders just fine in Explorer when I have the page w/ the file ext. .hmtl, but when I turn the page into a .cfm page then the whole page displays incorrectly.

Here are the 2 examples:

HTML Page: http://carolinasparking.org/template_aug_2011/test.html

CFM Page: http://carolinasparking.org/template_aug_2011/test.cfm

The code is exactly the same on both pages.  The site looks fine in Firefox and Chrome with the .cfm ext.

Any clues anyone has would be very helpful.

Anthony

    When the previous post was looking at the example I was most likely playing around w/ the pages.  The 2 examples are now the same and will stay that way.  I still can not get it to render correctly using a .cfm  but renders correctly using .html.

    I have been looking for a day now trying to find the answer, can any one come up with an answer.  This only in occurs in explorer.

    THey don't seem to be exactly the same. If I view source on .cfm I see two

    html comments at the top before the doctype. Not so in html. Perhaps there

    are other differences too.

    No it's not.

    That'd be where I'd start looking.

    I am using the following for Doc Type:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

    I have changed this several times and still nothing.

    its probably an issue with doctype? for me I had trouble in IE when using

    html5 doctype.
