Internet Explorer Theme Issue (2 posts)

    I'm having trouble getting my wordpress theme to show correctly in Internet Explorer 7. It looks fine in Chrome, Firefox and Opera and the problem only occurs in IE7 (possibly other IE versions, I am as yet unsure).

    Here is my blog: ViolentSleep

    Now, I have made heavy edits to the theme as it was originally a theme purchased for a non-wordpress website (which you can see here). If you look at the static site versus the blog version of the same theme, you'll notice that the website appears properly in IE7. I will admit it's a complex theme, but I cannot find why it works in all other browsers but not IE. For comparison sake, I have the CSS for the website and blog both here.

    Here is the CSS for the website:

    Feel free to ask for anything else you may need.

    Don't post huge chunks of code here. Use pastebin: http://wordpress.pastebin.com

    You've got a garbage comment above your doctype in header.php <!--header starts here--> and that is throwing IE into quirks mode. Fix that and some other code errors first. [Invalid]Markup Validation of blog.violentsleep.com - W3C Markup Validator. Scroll down in the validation report to see line numbers and source code. You can ignore the unencoded ampersand errors as they don't affect display.
