    Internet Explorer Issues
    « on: May 22, 2012, 03:25:23 AM »
    Hello everyone,

     I got the website designed and it looks wonderful in both Chrome andFirefox. But the trouble started with Internet Explorer . The menu on the left side went into disorder and the background gradient is nowhere to be seen . I have no idea of how to fix it .
    The website is here at http://www.drjaredcooper.com/index.html .

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks a lot !
    Akash

    It's a problem with how IE is handling CSS.  When viewed in IE9, the site looks fine until you switch on Compatibility View - so clearly it's a problem inherited from older versions of the browser.

    Here's how I usually approach this problem:  Selectively delete sections of the CSS, reloading the page each time, until I find the code that is causing the problem.  Then carefully examine that code and see how I can reproduce the effect in an IE-friendly manner (using condition stylesheets if absolutely necessary).
    Only able to visit the forums sporadically, sorry.

    If you happen to use a new-ish version of Dreamweaver, its browser compatability checking is top quality.
