Annoying Bug in ie6 and older on new site

[thecyrusvirus]

Hope someone here can help as we just cant figure out what the hell is causing this problem in ie6 and older.

http://www.prismtraining.co.uk

The left column moves across and covers the content but if you refresh the page it goes back where it should be until you go to another page.

It was also doing this on hover for the left column nav items but we removed the hover rule to try and debug further. Still cant figure out what the hell is wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HI,

Try something like this:

* html #container {float:left}
#icn {
    position:absolute;
    right: 30px;
    top:231px;
    height:50px;
    width:54px;
    z-index:999999;
clear:both;/* ie6 bug*/
}

My fixes always work

Have you cleared your cache?

The live site seems to be working now and there is no jumping of the nav bar. If you remove the html>body styles from the nav it show roll over properly now.

I have tested locally and it is working fine unless you are experiencing some other issue.

HI

Sorry to be a pain, but can you check the live version again, the homepage doesnt have the problem (which is most strange) but the following pages do.

http://prismtraining.co.uk/default.aspx/Page/36
http://prismtraining.co.uk/default.aspx/Page/2
http://prismtraining.co.uk/default.aspx/Page/15
http://prismtraining.co.uk/default.aspx/Page/2

These pages seem to have the problem until you refresh. I have cleared the cache too. I have used winmerge to check the markup between these pages and the homepage and all seem the same.

Can you let me know if you see the same problem.


Thanks for all your help so far

Hi,

The only page I managed to get it to go wrong on was this one which had 45 errors on it.

You need to fix those errors as there are loads of missing tags.

I couldn't get the other pages to go wrong even after clearing the cache.

This makes it hard to test and the only thing I could suggest is that might be causing some problems is the form and div that you are wrapping the page in which has not been given "layout".

Try giving the outer form and that inner div a width of 100% and position:relative. Then see what happens
