IE Issue

[flaps]

Hey all

I have a small issue in Internet Explorer.
I don't actually use this browser, I use firefox, but I know other people do use IE.

For some reason on my home page, the layout is very strange.
All the other pages seem fine, it is just the home page.

The blocks that are supposed to be on the right, end up on the bottom of the page... and the jquery tabs thing doesn't seem to be working properly either.

Here are some screenies:





After removing a number of blocks and such, it turns out the problem is with the jquery tabs.
If I remove them then it works... but I don't want to remove them as it is such a cool feature!

I came onto your homepage here in IE, and yours seem to work fine.
Is there something I am missing out? Or doing wrong?

The link to my homepage is http://ultimate-music.eu/portal/index.php if you want to see it for yourselves.

Thanks!

I think you are the second person asking about this. One thing I have not hidden is my weaknesses with CSS and such. So primetime uses a css framework for layout. I will investigate to see if there is any thing I need to do to fix this.

Thanks Blitze

I really would like to keep this feature on my home page, as it saves clutter and looks awesome.

If worse comes to worse, and I have to remove it, then I will. As I do understand that the majority of people use IE instead of other browsers.
But I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Thanks again

Hey Blitze

Just a little update.

It turns out that it is not the tabs that was causing the error... (silly silly me, I should have tested it more)

Remember this topic?

Apparently it is that.
Whenever that code is being used, IE seems to screw up (excuse the language) the CSS.
It is so annoying that Microsoft cannot make a browser that can handle simple web pages as well as free open source browsers can.
Extremely frustrating

Sorry for the rant there... just a little frustrated with IE.

If you have any ideas as to why it may be doing this, I would be most appreciative.

Thanks dude.

IE seems to screw up (excuse the language) the CSS.

Personally, I'd have used more colorful words in regards to IE. It certainly is the bane of the web development community, to say the least.

Glad to see I'm not the only one lol

It's perfectly acceptable to say that IE *sucks*... It's Microsoft software, you expect it to work too?

[flaps]

well it's nice to know it's not just my scripts or the way i use scripts that causes problems in IE.

The annoying thing is, and no matter how many times we click our heels 3 times together, and wish there is no place like home... IE will always be the most commonly used browser

I really wish there were easy fixes for this problem, so I can just launch the damn site lol

Damn you IE!! why do you mock us!

Oki..

Well after pulling out all of my hair and polishing my new bald head, I have managed to come up witha temporary solution to the IE problem.

Well... there are two solutions really.
The realistic one is just use 'Recent Content (titles only)' as the feed. That seems to work on IE.

The unrealistic, but wishful solution...

IP Ban anyone who approaches the site for using a browser which sends web devlopers mad!

That's funny.

Please try updating root/styles/prosilver/template/cms/cms_common.css with the latest from svn and see if that helps. If you don't have an svn client, you can see it here
