Design Glitch in Safari

This is a discussion on Design Glitch in Safari within the Macromedia Dreamweaver forums in Adobe Tools category; I'm designing a site that uses a spry menu bar inside a div tag, and I'm hitting a glitch when I preview the site in Safari. The menu bar goes almost to the end of the div when I preview it in IE, FF and Chrome, but when I preview it in Safari, it takes the last button on the menu and puts it on the next line.

Default Design Glitch in Safari

I'm designing a site that uses a spry menu bar inside a div tag, and I'm
hitting a glitch when I preview the site in Safari. The menu bar goes almost
to the end of the div when I preview it in IE, FF and Chrome, but when I
preview it in Safari, it takes the last button on the menu and puts it on the
next line. I've tried adjusting the text size, padding, etc to shorten the
bar, but it doesn't fix the Safari problem (it just creates a larger gap
between the bar and the end of the div in the other browsers). Does anyone
know why Safari would be giving me this problem, and/or how I can fix it? Any
ideas would be greatly appreciated!

A website is worth a thousand descriptive words.

Got a link?

Otherwise we'll have to guess.

And my guess is that we need a link. ;-)

without seein a link it's hard to say, but it going to be a measurement problem.

a good place to start is to standardized your cross browser measurements. put
this in your css


body { /* set everything to normal to define the base format */
font: normal 13px/normal Geneva, Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif;
color: #000000;
background-color:#000000;

margin:2px 0;
}


h1 { font-size: 1.5em; margin: 0 .25em 0.65em 0; }
h2 { font-size: 1.2em; margin: 0 .25em 0.65em 0; }
h3 { font-size: 1.1em; margin: 0 .25em 0.4em 0; }

p, td, th, div, blockquote, ul, li, dl, ol { font-size: 1em; }
p, td, th, blockquote { margin: 0.5em 0;} /* controls spacing
between elements */

html,body { min-height:100%;margin-bottom:1px; }

I don't think this color scheme will work ;-)

Look at the bright side; no one will criticize the typeface chosen.
