<div id="tabs"> <ul> <li><a href="#tabs-1">nunc tincidunt</a></li> <li><a href="#tabs-2">proin dolor</a></li> <li><a href="#tabs-3">aenean lacinia</a></li> </ul> <div id="tabs-1"> <p>proin elit arcu, rutrum commodo, vehicula tempus, commodo a, risus. curabitur nec arcu. donec sollicitudin mi sit amet mauris. nam elementum quam ullamcorper ante. etiam aliquet massa et lorem. mauris dapibus lacus auctor risus. aenean tempor ullamcorper leo. vivamus sed magna quis ligula eleifend adipiscing. duis orci. aliquam sodales tortor vitae ipsum. aliquam nulla. duis aliquam molestie erat. ut et mauris vel pede varius sollicitudin. sed ut dolor nec orci tincidunt interdum. phasellus ipsum. nunc tristique tempus lectus.</p> </div> <div id="tabs-2"> <p>morbi tincidunt, dui sit amet facilisis feugiat, odio metus gravida ante, ut pharetra massa metus id nunc. duis scelerisque molestie turpis. sed fringilla, massa eget luctus malesuada, metus eros molestie lectus, ut tempus eros massa ut dolor. aenean aliquet fringilla sem. suspendisse sed ligula in ligula suscipit aliquam. praesent in eros vestibulum mi adipiscing adipiscing. morbi facilisis. curabitur ornare consequat nunc. aenean vel metus. ut posuere viverra nulla. aliquam erat volutpat. pellentesque convallis. maecenas feugiat, tellus pellentesque pretium posuere, felis lorem euismod felis, eu ornare leo nisi vel felis. mauris consectetur tortor et purus.</p> </div> <div id="tabs-3"> <p>mauris eleifend est et turpis. duis id erat. suspendisse potenti. aliquam vulputate, pede vel vehicula accumsan, mi neque rutrum erat, eu congue orci lorem eget lorem. vestibulum non ante. class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos himenaeos. fusce sodales. quisque eu urna vel enim commodo pellentesque. praesent eu risus hendrerit ligula tempus pretium. curabitur lorem enim, pretium nec, feugiat nec, luctus a, lacus.</p> <p>duis cursus. maecenas ligula eros, blandit nec, pharetra at, semper at, magna. nullam ac lacus. nulla facilisi. praesent viverra justo vitae neque. praesent blandit adipiscing velit. suspendisse potenti. donec mattis, pede vel pharetra blandit, magna ligula faucibus eros, id euismod lacus dolor eget odio. nam scelerisque. donec non libero sed nulla mattis commodo. ut sagittis. donec nisi lectus, feugiat porttitor, tempor ac, tempor vitae, pede. aenean vehicula velit eu tellus interdum rutrum. maecenas commodo. pellentesque nec elit. fusce in lacus. vivamus libero vitae lectus hendrerit hendrerit.</p> </div> </div> </div> <!-- oops! extraneous div tag! --> <script> $(function() { $( "#tabs" ).tabs(); }); </script> it working in chrome , firefox but not in ie.
but noticed an extraneous closing </div> tag @ end of markup.
after removed it, tabs appeared correctly in ie.
is possible make ie less sensitive trivial markup mistakes this?
this document type i'm using:
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd xhtml 1.0 strict//en" "http://www.w3.org/tr/xhtml1/dtd/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
is possible make ie less sensitive trivial markup mistakes this?
no, it's not, output valid markup. more having xhtml 1.0 strict doctype you're telling browser "this perfect", it's 1 of top 3 strictest markup doctypes can have.
ie can't render 100% valid page right of time, won't tolerate invalid ones...fixing markup far best option, not trying make browser cope it. after you control markup, don't control browser (or updates may get...or browser user's using). having valid markup, you've done best first step in ensuring renders close possible across browsers.
think of way, you're "oops" </div> tag...what do? <div> supposed close? want browser take stab @ it, possibly rendering very improperly formated page? can't know intended, knows markup received.
