Absolute Positioning not working on IE! (3 posts)

    Guys,

    I think I am having the same issue as maranello2. I can see the arrow change to the hand and then click the image to go to the links, but only in FireFox, Safari, and Chrome. I cant seem to make it work for IE. I have IE8 and IE9.

    In the main page I have a slide, this slide has 4 pics (one pic per slide). The pic on the slide is a 960x340 pix .png file divided in 3 by a transparent space between all 3 pictures. This pic (on each slide) has the same format, one big one on the right, and two small boxes on the left.

    Box 1 = Benefits...
    Box 2 = Air Sani...

    Like I said, works like a charm in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome...but it doesnt in IE8 or 9. Thats what I am trying to figure out...how to get it to show in IE

    This is the link to the website: http://www.cleanairspace.com/w20 (main page slide)

    This is what I have on the featured.php

    <a href="http://www.cleanairspace.com/w20/cimrbenefits/" class="box-1"></a>
    <a href="http://www.cleanairspace.com/w20/whatwedo/sanitizing/" class="box-2"></a>

    This is what I have for the css

    .box-1 {
        display: block;
        height: 159px;
        position: absolute;
        width: 210px;
        z-index: 9999;
    }
    
    .box-2 {
        height: 159px;
        position: absolute;
        top: 179px;
        width: 210px;
        z-index: 9999;
    }

    Help from anyone would be GREATLY appreciated.

    Thanks u in advanced!

    It's not working well for me on Firefox 4 or in the latest Opera either. There are too many errors for me to be able to offer a quick fix. If you correct these your site should work okay.

    Thanks Elpie, i checked those errors but they dont have anything to do with it. I removed my css settings for it and there are still the same. I havent tried on FF4, but I did on FF3 and works great. My issue is that it doesnt work on IE8. :(

    I googled "WordPress Absolute Position not working on IE" but nothing that would fix my issue. :(

    any help please!?
