Otsikko: IE doesnt like my theme.

Hi,

I upgraded to RC2 and everythings running well - except an issue I have with internet explorer.

My topics and posts column expands in a certain categories (one is hidden) when viewed in internet explorer.....

Check out the attachment.

In firefox its fine.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Here is the URL www.fertilityfriends.co.uk/forum - the category is at the bottom.

Did you make a copy of the skin and then customise it?

RC2 needs modifications on custom themes

I did copy the boardindex template - but changed the recent posts to look like the classic theme.

Apart from that - the only change I have done is move  the <b> tags for the board titles as they were not bolding properly.

Tony, this is not only with your theme.
This site also acts the same while browsing with IE.
But I dont really know the reason since the widths are correctly defined.
I guess this is caused when a board has child boards listed below it.

Hmmmm... your right - it is out on this site too.

I wonder what is causing IE to do this?

LainaaI wonder what is causing IE to do this?
The fact that IE6 is obsolete and doesn't comply with CSS standards maybe?  Just an observation.

Yeah... but it must be fixable - even if it means a little trick somewhere.

Maybe fixing the width of the column might do it?

As I stated above, widths are defined well in template.. Strange.
