All themes work in Firefox, all themes significantly broken in IE (8 posts)

    All my themes work well in Firefox, but they are all broken in IE. In IE 6 and 7 they only show the header and the title of the first post. However, all the HTML is there. What is going on? My site is http://www.stuartgeiger.com - I was using veryplaintxt, then switched to about ten different themes which all did the same thing. Now I have it on the default theme.

    Thanks!

    When this happened to me it was that there was an image that was set wider than the actual column and it pushed everything down. Firefox is forgiving with the math not adding up, but IE needs it all to formulate correctly.

    It happened on antother site also that I had sections inside the wrap that would equal larger than the wrap.

    Not sure if that's it, but that's what fixed mine.

    Why not just put up a browser detection script that diverts IE users to a page which asks them to upgrade to a real browser? This problem could be a godsend... people need to be educated about better software and encouraged to use it...

    This would make for a great plugin!

    Mine looks pretty much exactly the same in Firefox 3.0.4 and IE7.. both the main blog and Admin sections. Granted, mine is a slightly modified version of the default theme that came with version 2.5 of WordPress.

    The original poster's blog looks the same in both FF and IE as well.

    Clear cookies, cache, etc to make sure the latest versions of style sheets and javascript .js files are downloaded.
