Contact Form 7 does not seem to work with IE6 (9 posts)

    Hi,
    I'm working on a blog in the following address :
    http://enblaster.motif.co.il/contact-us/

    While the form is displayed properly on IE6, I am unable to fill it. The form works fine in FF etc.

    I'm using a standard form with no changes, I ran the site through an html validator without encountering any concurrent problem.

    Please advise

    @guyn check it again with XHTML validator. You'll see enough errors.

    Hi takayukister,

    As I mentioned before I am aware that some errors exist, but these errors should not effect the form in any way.

    For example I get approximately 10 errors for the flash embed which should be perfectly fine etc.

    I will attempt to minimize the extra errors but I doubt it will help.

    Would appreciate any additional thoughts on the matter.

    Just a quick update - out of the 16 errors which exist in the page 13 refer to the embedded flash menu at the top, another two relate to a table which exist in the right sidebar and the last relate to a tag "role" which is used by the k2 theme and should have no effect on the form.

    guyn, why don't you just try with another plugin?

    something like http://yoast.com/wordpress/enhanced-wordpress-contact-form/

    maybe it works...

    I just tested your form in IE6 on a PC. It worked ok for me.

    ..you should receive a TEST email as I hit submit.

    I use a mac too and ran into some problems when testing my forms. Do you use VMWare Fusion to run Windows XP with IE Tester. Sometimes I get differences between the IE Tester versions and the real thing. I ended up buying PC (cheap) just for testing.

    Try find a PC and test it again. Goodluck!
