Support » Themes and Templates » IE 9 Beta Breaks Twenty Ten?

  • I just downloaded my new version of IE 9 Beta, and on my display, Twenty Ten is broken – the header image is shoved way to the right. Looks like the site description and header line up.

    This is on WP 3.0.1 with Twenty Ten 1.1.

    My WordPress.com site does display properly using Twenty Ten.

    Anyone else see this?

  • Yes, I’m seeing it too, on three sites with different sets of plugins. The last IE9 preview displayed it just fine, but the beta shows exactly the same behavior you’re seeing.

    I haven’t taken the time yet to investigate whether it’s a bug in IE9 or a deliberate change.

    I get the same problem too. At first I thought it was a CSS problem but after a few attempts to change the CSS I still had the problem. Sorry I wasn’t much help…

    It’s a known issue but as IE9 is still in beta, it may not be fixed for a while yet.

    Too bad – makes it hard to build a theme not knowing if IE 9 will remain broken on something that every other browser, including IE 8 and apparently previous versions of IE, gets right.

    @esmi – who do you mean knows about the issue – Twenty Ten developers, or Microsoft? Hope it is Microsoft, and that they understand it is their problem to fix.

    Thanks for the info. Good to know it isn’t just me seeing this.

    Internet Explorer: The more things change, the more they stay the same. 🙂

    I believe that Microsoft knows about the issue. At least I’ve seen very similar issues reported elsewhere.

    I dont know if this helps or not but it seems to fix itself when I hide the site title/description.

    I have 4 sites running on this had titles showing and 2 not. I found that the 2 with titles hidden were ok. I changed one of the sites with titles showing and problem disapeared.

    However, if it can be fixed properly that would be much better as i would like to have a choice.

    I’m getting the same thing with my custom header at http://massachusettsrepublic.org/

    Please see above.
