Does anybody know why, when I create Aspx pages with
labels and text boxes, I can't display pages in the same
way from different computers with the same IE version and
settings , same character size, display resolution,
Operating System.
ex
In a page a label is shown in one line, in other cases
from different computers, the same label is displayed in
multiple lines. Text is overriding other labels etc.

Thank you,
Fabrizio
 
it sounds like the font size in the second instance is larger than in the
first...

in IE, go to View->Text Size, or alternatively, if you have a scroll wheel
on your mouse, press the Ctrl key and roll the wheel.

This is because your text is set to a relative size, rather than a fixed
absolute size.

hope that helps.

Hi,

It's also possible that he is using absolute positioning , I think this is
the default when you use the visual designer.

I would check both things, if you change this the page will looks similar
on all computers

Cheers,
 
would't absoluate positioning mean that the objects on the page are exactly
the same, no matter where they are viewed? (10, 20) position in relation to
the origin on my IE will be the same as (10, 20) on your IE, regardless of
hardware, OS, resolution...

The only reason they wouldn't be the same, is if the text is a different
size.

They would be different if they were relatively size ( ie in %'s ) or were
positioned in the normal flow...
