IE Problem

[sourishdey]

I am using PHP Director at www.utech.in/video for the last 3 years now...At that time, the site had a very active forum with many members. I lost interest somewhere in between when this website closed down and there was no movement on 0.3 version.

I recently noticed that people here have again started working on the code. So, I am back.

By the way, there is a small problem with my page. As you can see, the search bar is getting disturbed in IE. Any work around?

I tried to look at your page....

and well it looks perfectly fine to me....


what version do you have

Jeff,

He said it was an IE Problem not FireFox:



Same with my site:


NOTE: It works fine in IE8 but not in any version under IE7

Oooo opps lol sorry... i had both windows open and some how got confused... but i have IE8 thats why it worked for me.... opps

Yah, I can't seem to find a solution. I thought the CSS/xhtml:
.clearer {
   clear: both;
}

<div class="clearer"></div>

would fix it but no dice...

Anyone else have a solution?

yes on the latest version of i.e you need to turn compatibility mode off (next to the refresh bar/url bar)

[FireDart]

But the thing is most IE users wont know that , I hate this! If you are going to use IE at least use the latest version! It solves so many cross browsers compatibility problems for Web Designers.

I will see what I can do.

just create a splash page telling them the problem and to use firefox or i.e (the latest version)

Yah, I saw that, good idea.
