IE hates my Page

HTML & CSS
1

Hi, I wonder if someone could help. I uploaded an article and everything seemed cool. I have everything fluid under iPhone size then an iphone css takes over. I have css sheets for computer screen sizes (greater than 480px) and another for IE8 and under.

Everything works just fine on all Mac, PC and IE browsers locally, just great. I also use a font-kit from font squirrel.

I up loaded my article and everything was fine except for IE, I put some common fonts on my IE stylesheet to make sure that there wasn’t an issue with the font-kit but still no joy.

If anyone could go to www.esculent.co.uk with any IE, top right it says ‘The Pit of Unforgiveness’. If you click on it with anything but but IE all is well but with IE… strange things happen. :rolleyes:

If anyone has any idea what is going on that would be great. My editor (Taco HTML Edit) says the HTML is clean… Late here but I’ll go through the IE css sheet and the others in the morning… check back here too.

Regards, Karl.

This is your problem:

<script src="html5shiv.js"></script>

Thanks Ankerstjerne.
I have replaced that code to Google’s latest…


<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->

However, I am perplexed why my original code is an issue, the very same code works with IE here…
www.farmerscampaign.org

I like to keep the code local just incase someone downloads it and views it offline. How can it work on one site and not another, both sites reside with the same host and both sites use the same code so I am as I say, rather perplexed. Unless my html5shiv.js file was corrupted.

Regards, Karl.

I couldn’t say why it doesn’t work, as I prefer to use HTML 4.01 over HTML 5, as long as HTML 5 is still an incomplete draft which is unsupported by more than half the Internet’s users’ primary browser.

Thanks for the nod anyway, you pointed out the issue so I could get it running on IE and that was a great help. Weird why it works on one and not another, ‘illogical’ as Spock would say… :slight_smile:

Oh… wait a minute, the other site isn’t hosted by the same host! The one that is having issues is hosted by 1&1, the other I can’t recall but they are not the same… that might have nailed the issue.

Appreciated, Karl.
