    IE Page Problem

    I seem to be having a IE problem with pages. Both the pages I started to make while customizing the theme don't work in IE.
    I don't know why. I have all the original CSS in place. Anyone know why this might be happening.
    The pages work fine in FF and Safari.

    Can you include a screenshot? What version of IE are you using?

    Re: IE Page Problem

    Quite strange. Did you try clearing your IE cache? Did you modify any of the .css files?

    Send me your url so I can dig deeper with firebug.

    That's one of the pages.

    I was editing the .css but put back the default when I saw IE wasn't working to see if that was the problem. I will try and get onto a computer with IE to clear the cache to see if that works.

    Yes cleared the cache and still had the same problem. Odd indeed because if I click and drag my mouse over the area you can see the content. Like the Photo above.

    That's excatly the way it happens for me to, only it's not on all pages, just login and register

    UPDATE:

    Ok it appears it is happening on some of my pages, such as,

    http://www.hairdressingjobs.org.uk/contact-us/

    But again it's only a problem in i.e

    Re: IE Page Problem

    Did you revert back all the .css changes you made? That's what I would do and then make small changes and check in IE after each change until you figure out which change actually created the problem.

    Regardless, I did some research out of my own curiosity and this is what I discovered. Give it a try and see if it works.

    IE has a very strange bug where text or background images sometimes disappears from sight. These items are still actually there, and if you highlight everything on screen or hit refresh they'll often re-appear.

    This problem mostly occurs on background images and on text next to a floated element. To remedy the problem, simply insert position: relative into the CSS command for the disappearing element, and for some bizarre reason that'll usually fix the problem. If this doesn't work (it sometimes doesn't), assign a width to the offending element in the CSS and that should fix the problem.

    Re: IE Page Problem

    I threw up a fresh classipress theme onto my site so that everything was back to default. The pages still do not work.
    The pages (including dashboard, edit ad, and profile) along with the wp-login.php still don't work.

    I don't understand what you mean by assigning width to the pages.

    This is becoming frustrating because I don't understand why this problem only occurs for 1 or 2 people.
