Okay so here it is in it’s simplest form:
http://digitallapress.com/test.html
I have NO idea what is going on. Every browser looks okay – IE8 just a grey box with stacked links (and even the colors are wrong).
Even stranger, when I remove the JQuery line – it removes the grey background on IE. All other browsers unaffected.
Btw, i’m now only using the original unedited Style.css that came with the Hueman theme… hellpppp so confused
Hi,
sorry, I can not help you, but now I have same headache as you 🙂
Since I’m not big fan of IE, I left IE8 without updating. As I looked at my website (you can find it in my profile, a couple of threads I opened) it looks horrible on all resolutions in IE8.
Normally – tested it in all possible browsers + mobile devices & emulators (even such exotic ones like Yandex and Thor browser) without problems. Only CSS modifications I did regarding header (middle) menu are colors and centering (as I remember).
Yes, I looked now Hueman demo (even Anew, 2nd theme Alex made) – it has something like “auto fix” after refresh in IE8, so there is some “general problem” with theme – more like with IE8, but for sure some small % of people are using it still.
Thanks for pointing this out – I think everybody on this forum should look at their Hueman made websites in IE8 (if they can find it)
Alex, heeelp 🙂 or somebody else who has comments?
Regards,
Mike
I see in the style.css file there is a section at the end that seems to address ie8 issues specifically – any idea why those are not working?
some to do with this:
@media only screen and (min-width: 720px) {}
in the NAV css section. Supposedly IE8 doesn’t support media queries, though the responsiveness of the site works fine in IE8.
pulling my hair out – even if it it was the media thing -that doesn’t explain why the background colors don’t load – arg
Solution:
Realize that IE8 is super old and not even worth trying to support. Didn’t realize how old my PC is! Still on Windows 7 (upgraded from XP lol). Once you go mac….
You are of course right, it officially went to history as MS stopped Win XP support April, 2014.
This link http://www.allwebcafe.com/blog/time-to-drop-support-for-ie8/
shows still about 10% users exists worldwide(January 2014) – but advice “Don’t use anything that IE8 doesn’t understand (CSS3 and Media Queries)” is a bit too much for me.
What I was interested in – if somebody will find solution for Hueman theme, that is clean written & mobile responsive itself – even for such poor and buggy browser as IE8.
Obviously – not for now, at least for some issues.
