The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

CSS Display Problem with FireFox

Asked by arthur_raft2 in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Mozilla Web Browser, Firefox Web Browser

Hello Experts,

I have same CSS that styles some selectable "tabs" - have a look at the attached image to get a quick idea of the working item in question.

The tabs are basically generated as set of "list items" displayed "inline".

My problem - as you will see in the attached image, these tabs display perfectly in IE 6 and IE 7. In all versions of FireFox there is a problem - in particular, the CSS for "item width" and "line heigh" are not displayed in FireFox.

Can a CSS guru suggest the the reason and possibly a work arround??  Let me know if you need further details.

Thanks in anticipation.Start Free Trial
