Gotta love IE :|

Try adding this to your _main.php, just above </head>

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<style type="text/css">
div{ display:inline-block;}
</style>
<![endif]-->

¥

Thank you very much ¥åßßå :lol:

However.........while the sidebar is now looking quite good, the posts on the mainsidebar are lowered down to bottom.

Weard........ 8|

hmmmm, not a good move :p

Try changing it to this instead :-

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<style type="text/css">
#sidebar{ height:1%; }
</style>
<![endif]-->

¥

nop, sorry, back to square one I'm afraid....... :-/

It's no wonder I hate that browser >:-<
Lets try another one :p

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<style type="text/css">
#sidebar,
#sidebar div{
display:inline-block;
border:1px solid #f00;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->

If it works then you can remove the "border" line

It's no wonder I hate that browser >:-<

you know what, it never bothered me before, but now, grrrrrrr.

Thanks for all your efforts, but as you can see, no success there, although I like the red touch :)

lol, only Micrdoft can get people this passionate :|

Lets try a few more bits ;)

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<style type="text/css">
#sidebar,
#sidebar div{
display:inline-block;
padding:1px;
border:1px solid #f00;
}

#bPosts{
float:left;
}

#footer{
clear:both;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->

I know you're a bit of a magician with colour, but to make my site disappear, wow, that's magic !! :lol:

lol, *points to the scrollbar on the code box in the above post* ;)

¥

ok, ok, 'took me while. ;)

no results though, sorry, still pretty, but short side bar.

something might give you a clue though: look at my link on the post of that link, it shows it all, not with Firefox !

I've just validated your page ( [url=http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.biblebureau.com/biblemistranslations/index.php/a?cat=1]results[/url] ). "Some" of those errors may be tripping IE up (mainly the missing <li>'s etc).

Try getting rid of the validation errors first (just shout if you get stuck) and remove the code I told you to add. Then, if it still doesn't work at least we know we're starting from good code ;)

¥

wow, you're getting me really worried there.

there's 17 errors, I'll try to fix it, but my actual blog has 40, and the main website 85 !!!!!!!

<<<<<<<<<<<< scared

I don't think I will be able to resolve that soon.

Thanks, I appreciate your help.

No problem, if you get stuck with any of the errors then just shout back. You'll often find that curing one error gets rid of a load more. ;)

¥

please tell me ¥åßßå, is there a simple tool I can download that will count the lines for me?

Counting becomes tiredsome as you may have known

Thanks

Personally I use [url=http://www.flos-freeware.ch/notepad2.html]Notepad 2[/url] for all my coding, line numbers is one of it's settings.

One of the problems is that the php line numbers don't always marry up with the validator line numbers as the code can spit out more (or less) lines of html than the number of lines of php.

If you look at the top of the validator you'll see an option to "show source", if you select it and click "revalidate" then each of your errors will have the line number hyperlinked to the line in your code, you can then search _main.php for the area that produces that line.

¥

Very nice of you ¥åßßå.

=> After 2 weeks of heavy coding (which I have never done before), I think I will give it a rest for a few days and then sort it all out if I can.

Thank you for all your help.
