Using Internet Explorer, I am getting the following error:

The news fader section shows ALL of the news items--it does not fade between each item. This only happens with IE. Chrome and FF work fine. JS was updated to v6, build 24.
thoughts on this? Anyone else seeing this?
Edit your theme's CSS.
It even notes the problem in there!
#smfFadeScroller
{
text-align: center;
padding: 0 2em;
overflow: auto;
margin: 1em 0;
color: #fff; /* shouldn't be shorthand style due to a JS bug in IE! */
}
Convert it into:
#smfFadeScroller
{
text-align: center;
padding: 0 2em;
overflow: auto;
margin: 1em 0;
color: #ffffff; /* shouldn't be shorthand style due to a JS bug in IE! */
background-color: black;
}
excellent! thanks-- I thought "shorthand" meant using color names like red, gold, black, etc... You totally nailed it.
No, shorthand refers to the 3 character triplet, which breaks on IE when the fader tries to look up the colour and fails.
