Phoca Forum

Recently i have installed Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.
Now the images look like this:

Hi, try to set some standard template like e.g. rhuk_milkyway (maybe there is some conflict between CSS on your site, try to use the IE8 web developer tool to disable some parts of css to find where can be the problem)

Hi @all!

Same Problem at my Site. Bevor i installed IE 8 everything looks fine, so i think the problem is the new explorer and not the template

Have anyone an Idea?

Hi,

As said before: test it with the rhuk_milkyway template. If this shows normal, then the problem isn't within Phoca Gallery, but in the CSS of your template.

Hi,

Shadowbox doesn't work with IE8. The image do not apppear.

Bye

The problem is that I can't just switch the template.

If Florian says it works fine with another template, than you might have an idea of where in the CSS the problem is occurring, and what I might be able to do to fix it.

Any and all help is always GREATLY appreciated!!!

@chocovo, get phocagallery 2.2.4, shadowbox problem is fixed in that release

@dgaletar: first check in your template if there is a different ie7-css file. Then check in your index.php if it says 'if gte IE 7' or something like that? (gte = greather than or equal), remove the gte and see if there is still a problem.
If so: turn on the developer toolbar (F12) and start digging into your css.

Thanks, Carolien, for the help, but I am not sure I am doing it correctly.

Here is the php code from the index page:

<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<link href="<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/beez/css/ieonly.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7]>
<link href="<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/beez/css/ie7only.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->

The IE7 CSS file is only a few lines long. I removed all of the CSS and there was no change on the front end.

I tried using the "developer toolbar (F12)", but nothing happens when I press F12. (I tried "F12", "Ctrl F12", "Alt F12", "Fn F12" & "Shift F12" to no avail.)

I don't want to continue to burden you with my problems, but I don't know what else to do!!! What really stinks is that switching templates seems to solve the problem. If I had known that earlier, I might have been able to do that. Now I just have a messed up looking site!

Lastly, I wanted to point out that while I am using IE8, my friends are using IE6 & 7, and are seeing the thing. (I figured that I would throw it all at the wall and see if anything hits a hot spot for anyone.)

As always, thanks for the continued support!!!
