Good god, figures.... IE screws me again.

K,

If you have IE 6.0, you can go to www.hagensmarine.com and you'll see the problem I'm having in the nav.

Christ.... I uploaded all of this with it working perfectly, but I didn't have IE 6.0. I need to get that fixed ASAP.

HELP!!!!

MrStitch · 2007-10-12 16:25:34

I have this in there......

Code: html

<!--[if lte IE 6]>

<a href="#nogo">Boat Accessories

<table><tr><td>

<![endif]-->

Do I need to close the <a>???? Is that causing it to give me duplicate navs?

TheGypsy · 2007-10-12 16:28:26

Sorry man... I think all our browsers are now IE7 grrrrrr.... did you try closing the </a>?

laurie_m · 2007-10-12 16:35:31

Hey Stitch.

I think you'll have to follow the often repeated advice of our good friend TA. Validate your code, Mate. Never mind IE6. Use FF and get the code right so it will display correctly in all browsers. That's what the man says!

You've got some images not closed off. That may be your problem.

You'll forgive me, won't you, for laying it on so thick about TA and valid code. reta

Best wishes with it,
Laurie.

Images not closed off? Don't think I've ever closed an image tag in my life.... ever since the beginning.

Can I download IE6 somewhere so I can test this on my computer without running back and forth through the office?

MrStitch · 2007-10-12 16:41:46

Uhg.... it wouldn't install.

You seem to have a problem with your doctype. There are several types of tags not closed.

Hey Stich this may help: Multiple Versions of IE

MrStitch · 2007-10-12 16:58:15

Got that multiple IE thingy. Works like it should.

I've fixed a bunch of problems to match the doc type, but it don't seem to be doing anything.

MrStitch · 2007-10-12 17:05:48

GRRRRRRRRR

Guess I gotta get outa here. Looks like it'll sit like that all weekend.

I hate microsoft.

Mr Stitch,

You have ;

Code: css

<!--[if lte IE 6]>

<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" type="text/css" href="css/dropdown_ie.css" />

<![endif]-->

IE can't find your specific stylesheet

Remove the css/ from the href tag and check it

MrStitch · 2007-10-15 09:42:58

Getting closer,

Now, I moved that file (can't believe I didn't see that before), and I no longer have that weird looking duplicate looking menu anomaly.

But the drop down menus still don't work. angry

Suggestions?
