    Hi there,

    if you look at the above page in IE7 you will see that it does not load any of the text. In firefox everything looks fine.

    I have set up a conditional style sheet to remedy any CSS issues IE7 is having with my master style sheet, but I am at a loss to discover what IE7 is having trouble with?

    Would someone be able to check out my CSS and point out what I should be adding to my IE7-specific style sheet.

    Thanks in advance.

    There's a couple of stylesheets missing - CSS validator results. That won't be helping but I doubt it's the cause of the problem.

    In a situation like this, I start by resetting all likely culprit properties on the problematic block - e.g. position, overflow, margins, padding, widths etc. - and giving it a nice bright red border (so I can spot the damn thing). Then it's down to slow elimination and some re-building.

    Hi esmi,

    Thanks for the advice - I went back to basics - stripped out the php '@ import' commands to stop pulling the redundant style sheets and spent the last 2 and a half hours cutting and pasting the suspicious CSS.... it was this that was causing the problem:

    .alignright {
    float:right;
    width:auto;
    }

    all this was controlling was the position of a post image :) All is now appearing in IE7!!! All I need to do now is sort out the style of each of these pages, as at the moment it looks a bit turd.

    Thanks for the help!
