Hi,

Hi, I am trying to design a new skin and although it
looks good on
Firefox, it looks broken in IE. I am no programmer and to be able to
design a new skin that works in Firefox is admittedly an achievement
by my own lousy standards.
Instead taking care of IE fixes with its many many versions and other
browsers as well, I am thinking of using my skin only for Firefox
browers and monobook for the rest. How do I tweak this code in
LocalSettings.php:
$wgDefaultSkin = 'newskin';
I guess it's something like: if Firebox browser, use 'newskin', else
use 'monobook'.
There should be some middleground to have a skin that looks proper in
both IE and FF. I know FF has more conformant support for CSS, but IE
isn't that bad.
Did you base your skin on monobook? There are provisions in that skin
to deal with various IE peculiarities. I have created a new skin based
on monobook (1.13, don't know if 1.14 or 1.15 have radically changed
the way monobook is skinned) that works OK on both FF and IE.
What are your requirements for the skin, and where does it break in IE?
