: Font in IE looks shocking
: fotohijinx January 28, 2009, 12:41:26 AM
I like this module but of course it looks great in FF but the font looks shocking in IE - how can I get it too look like the rest of the site?

Hello Irene,

I just checked in IE7 and the font appears to look as it should.  What version are you running?

I'm using IE 7.0.5730.13

I've attached a picture of how it appears to me.

Cheers
Irene

The module itself does not control the text output, we didn't add any text formatting so that whatever template it was placed on the news ticker would match.  I checked in IE7 again and it doesn't look like your screenshot.  I would make sure you browser settings haven't been changed and try a different computer too.

can we add text formatting - perhaps some css - and if so how do we do it?

I have the same problem - in IE8 in compatability mode for IE7 - I also have some double flickering. it's actually like truefont won't work - I can change size and color - have made different classes and divs - but doesn't present cleanly. Pity

Me too. It looks great in Firefox but absolutely awful in IE7 - any ideas?? Shame really as I really like the mod but am going to have to look around for an alternative.

Yes, tried that but still doesn't look good in IE. Very strange!
