    My site is nealrozendaal.com. My client says that when he opens the site in IE8, the footer is in a different place on every page. I cannot replicate the problem when I look at the site in IE8. Does anyone else see this happening? I don't know where to start to try to fix it when I can't see the problem!

    1. Do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. It is the default WordPress 3.2 theme and having access to an unedited version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues. Create a child theme for your changes.

    2. Start by sorting out the markup errors. Then move onto the CSS errors.

    If you continue to have problems with IE, consider conditional comment CSS

    I just found out about child themes, so I'll be changing that soon.

    I've looked through markup errors and tried using some conditional CSS. The footer displays correctly when I look at the site in IE, but it does not display correctly for my client. I just want to see if it displays incorrectly for anyone else, and hopefully find a starting point for debugging the issue.
