In reply to: Slash Problem In Subscribe2I have this exact problem.
The plugin seems to work great, and the write message feature was a bonus I wasn’t even expecting…But the email it sends has a \ backslash inserted before every apostrophe ‘

In reply to: CSS issue with IERegarding why the problem occurs on a category page but not on the home page:
Think boxes within boxes here… The home page template may in effect be wrapping the same area in an extra container – problems with IE box model can often be solved by wrapping the container in an extra set of
<div>...</div>and applying the style to that outer container.I noticed that your template has an
#outercontaineras well as an#innercontainer.Play with those horizontal margin and padding values and see if that’s where the variance is happening.

In reply to: CSS issue with IEhttp://www.1stpersonpress.com/links/archives/css/ has a couple of links that are great for visualizing the CSS Box Model.
Note – for shorthand CSS expressions (all four directions displayed as one line) the value for left will be the last number. CSS shorthand rules are written clockwise, starting from the top:
example:
margin: 10px 20px 30px 40pxis the same as
margin-top: 10px;
margin-right: 20px;
margin-bottom: 30px;
margin-left: 40px;Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: CSS issue with IEThe problem may be caused by the different way Internet Explorer renders box model in terms of padding and margins.
IE does not add margin and padding to the div, but includes it within the total width of a container. This often throws off horizontal alignments.
Look at the values for the following (for the container box, probably your
#outercontainer div) :
border-left,margin-left,padding-left, orwidthvalues.Internet Explorer often needs the
width:XXpxspecified. (XX representing some number in pixels)I have linked the issue here:

The post references an explanation via Elise LearningMovableType.com, but the problem isn’t specific to MT templates.
I have a couple of box model illustrations somewhere, let me see if I can locate and I’ll post those here as well.
