[css-d] trouble in IE8
hi all, A site that I did a few years ago is having trouble in IE8. The contact button is shifting down, creating 3 rows of buttons instead of two - contact on its own, the others on their 2 lines. http://jodishuster.com/ http://jodishuster.com/js_css/jodi.css http://jodishuster.com/js_css/ie-hacks.css http://jodishuster.com/js_css/ie6-hacks.css http://jodishuster.com/js_css/ie7-hacks.css if I was putting this site together now, I would write it really differently, but I would rather not have to do the whole thing again! Can anyone see what's giving 8 trouble? 6 7 are fine, as is firefox and safari and mozilla and netscape and opera ... thanks so much!

You might try fleshing out your sitenav ul. Seemed to do the trick in
the small test I ran.
.sitenav ul {
width:278px;
overflow:hidden;
list-style:none;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}

Re: [css-d] Trouble with IE8 Vista Operating system and wordpress site
Hi, I ran into a snag with the overflow:hidden and that is there is one page full of anchor tags on professional site the updates are live not yet live. The fix seems very complicated for anchor tags, so I started to exploring css tables, and looks fine so far in my version of IE8, however there was some indication that beta versions had some issues, do you know of any updates on this?

On my professional site, which is not live yet, I was able to use the position is everything solution for every browser except IE6 and 7, which I will continue to use the javascript. I have at least one very long page of user driven data that can go up to 41 printed pages and that got truncated in IE6 and 7. However in the http://www.pleasantstreetchurch.org/wordpress site, I couldn't get the overflow:hidden to work at all and I couldn't figure out what was wrong, but since it only had to do with a border and not background color, I put a right border in the left container and a left border in the sidebar and used a margin of -1px in the sidebar and so far that seems to work although I need to test it further.

All I _know_ is that IE8rc1 handles CSS tables fine. IE8 is supposed to be in full support of CSS2.1, so all _should_ be well also in IE8 final. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

[css-d] Trouble with IE8 Vista Operating system and wordpress site
Hi, My Wordpress site, validates in the W3c validator and seems to work in all browsers I've tried except IE8. It freezes every time I try it. It gets stuck downloading images. But the other thing is that the global navigation doesn't seem to work in IE8. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? http://www.pleasantstreetchurch.org/wordpress Thanks, Nancy __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
