IE 8 and IE 9 Compatible?

Wow! I’m impressed!

I never thought I’d get a response to this question!

Here is my issue – it is very strange.

IF you visit this site I’m working on:

http://www.ng-sandbox.com/excargo

IF you view it in any browser the MAIN NAVIGATION that is that brown color shows up fine – using the Translate Plugin – BUT if you view it in IE9, IE8, IE7 the navigation shows up white.

Remove the plugin and in IE9 it shows up! STRANGE.

Unfortunately my client uses IE9 and once I installed Translate she could no longer see the navigation bar.

I could sort of test it out using this online tool:
http://netrenderer.com/index.php

The support over at Avada was very helpful as we went back and forth trying to figure out if it was a caching problem, server side caching problem, plugins, my client dumping her cache, the CSS I put in the custom CSS area to make that nav bar show up the brown color.
Finally I removed all of the plugins and by process of elimination narrowed it down to the Translation plugin.

I called my client up and asked her to view site with Plugin and without and the moment she REFRESHED when I turned it off the navigation was correct for her IE9 Browser – Windows 8.

So… something is going on between the Avada Theme and Translation Plugin.

Or could it be fighting with some other plugin I have installed???

I do appreciate your email – I understand this is probably low on your list of things to do and my scenario is kind of rare.

Thanks again

http://www.ng-sandbox.com/excargo2 – translator off – Navigation works in IE9

http://www.ng-sandbox.com/excargo – translator ON – Navigation fails in IE9

My client is using Windows 8, Browser IE9

When she views http://www.ng-sandbox.com/excargo she does not see the brown navigation bar when the Translation plugin is ON.
I deactivate Translation and she refreshes she can see the correct design.

Ignore /excargo2 – this is where I updated the theme Avada and turned off Translation and have been doing more design work. There are a bunch of changes there from /excargo.

/excargo still has the Translation plugin on, this is where you can see the navigation bar showing white or clear instead of brown in IE9
At least this is how my client sees it as well as when I view in a IE replicator online.

Not sure if this answers your questions.

I have never been to her office – she claims (not sure if it’s true) everyone in her office was also seeing it wrong on IE9 that she asked to view it.

Once Avada told me to go through each Plugin to see if that was the issue I did that with her – when I turned off Translator – the problem went away for her.

Here is the custom CSS that is making up that brown nav bar background.

Actually here is the CSS for the top GREEN and main BROWN bars

#wrapper .header-social {
background-color: #5B8F22 !important;
}

#small-nav { background-color: #60542B !important; }

#small-nav {

background-color: #60542B !important;

}

Is it possible this CSS is conflicting with something?
That is what is so strange about this conflict.

Wow – I am really impressed with your desire to fix this issue for me.

I’ve tested it using this site: http://netrenderer.com/index.php

And I think you have fixed it.

The new temp url is http://ng-sandbox.com/excargo2/

I have a phone call into my customer to have her look at the site using her browser to see if it blew away the brown navigation bar that was happening previously.

Once she tests it and replies to me I will return to let you know the status.

I do appreciate all your help!
