I work in Visual Studio .NET. I preview the page with Internet Explorer and everything looks ok. But I am a Firefox fan and when I preview the page in Firefox, everything related to asp.net controls looks different. Image buttons and Image boxes don't even show... textboxes, checkboxes etc , they look different.
Any ideea on how to resolve this ?

What I know is that I should chose a Target Schema of HTML 4.0, but it's not in the list from the page properties :(

Pls :( Any sugestions are welcome

Click to expand...

You will not able to get the same experience on different browsers.
This is the starting point.

ASP.Net require javascript enabled.
Does your FF has it?

Use CSS: they can give a better control on the aspect of your pages.

For the ImageButtons I don't know: I use them with FF and they works well.
They just doesn't show the tooltip, but this is an ASP.net + IE bug that do not use a completely standard HTML for images, and not a FF bug as it could seem.
 
I found the sollution , I just got a link from someone http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread660.html
I just had to add that <browsercaps> in the WebConfig.

Still they look different ( as you said ... not the 'same experience on different browsers' ) but .. they look much more alike now ... The tables and everything ... but still the image buttons don't wanna show themselves :(
 
I use the same browser caps, but still it doesn't work, I Can't view the image buttons in Firefox . YOU CAN ?

I AM GOING CRAZY HERE, PLS, No One Bumped into this problem ?

do u mean..for example, the textbox size looks different?..

If so, have u tried using CSS?

At my other job, i was developing an asp.net app. It looked fine in IE but not in Mozilla. When I started using CSS...the textboxes, button sizes started looking fine.
