    Hi,

    I’m using the Iconic One theme.

    The theme isn’t displaying properly on Internet Explorer. On Chrome it looks fine.

    The header and navigation areas are all different if you compare the two. My biggest issue though is that I’m using WP Biographia at the bottoms of my posts as an author bio. The social media icons are all lined vertically in internet explorer, making the whole bio box look horrible.

    Can someone help me with this?

    My url is http://www.the32doors.com

    Hi Nlbrady,

    Welcome to the wild world of cross-browser compatibility! Generally speaking, Internet Explorer will cause a bunch of errors when rendering your site. Some attributes are supported while others are not.

    For example, to create a drop shadow on an element that is supported across all major browsers one would have to implement code like this:

    -moz-box-shadow:    3px 3px 5px 6px #ccc;
  -webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px 6px #ccc;
  box-shadow:         3px 3px 5px 6px #ccc;

    the -moz prefix targets mozilla browsers , while -webkit targets webkit browsers such as IE and Chrome.

    Another issue is how floats and certain position styles are rendered in IE browsers. Unfortunately we still need to develop for IE as it still holds a large chunk of market share.

    Read up on cross-browser compatability for further details.
