Hi all,
I am pretty decent at (X)HTML & CSS for web design, so decided today to go into my favourite aircraft and try and get some checklists from PDF files onto the check.htm, so I can distribute it for use in-simulation (FSX so far). Now I don't use tables for layout, I use CSS and this file has no need for tables, so I deleted it all, started with a HTML 4 Strict doctype and made a bunch of left-aligned ordered lists to work my checklists through. While this works perfectly in any browser that I have (IE7, FF, Opera, Lynx and Safari), it will not work in Flight Simulator. It displays the first bit perfectly and then repeats the top image again with some of the text repeated for 4 or 5 times.
Here is an uploaded version.
Do any of you know if it needs to be table-based layout. I am assuming the rendering engine is IE6, based on FSX's release date.
Incidentally, I also took screenshots of the browser view and made it into one big image, which I then put in the file instead. Again, browsers fine but FSX browser repeats the top area over and over.
Any help appreciated.
