Display issue with Sigma template and IE9

[michael +]

Had to be IE didn't it?

I was about to upgrade 68C from V4.2.1 to 4.2.3 and also upgrade my TemplateCodes modules as instructed when I noticed that in IE9 an extra navigation bar is displayed (but with no links).

Here's a screenshot;



Everything is fine in Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari and in IE Compatibility View.

That is a strange one. I will investigate. Can you tell me what our demo site looks like for the different templates series. Need to first find out if it is you or in general.

Logical thinking.

Yes, your demo site (sigma) looks fine so I guess this IS my issue. Strange, other than changing the background image (page.png) I've made NO changes.

I'll look into this further . . .

Michael,

You wind me up LOL. . PM me with you site details. It may be the page.png - recently I converted that to .gif

Whatever, I just sent you the latest templates and see if that changes anything. PM me or email when you have it.

Thanks David, I got your email. Unfortunately my wife is dragging me out of the house so I can't pay any attention to this now (never, ever, EVER mess with your Mrs).

Have a good weekend!

I sorted this out and thought I'd post the details as it might help someone else. Using KDiff3 to compare my Sigma-Aqua template to an untouched Sigma-Blue template I found one difference in layout.tpl. I really can't remember adding it but that anchor tag I highlighted in red simply needs deleting.

		<div id="logo"><a href="index.php">
			{if $template_logo <> ''}
				<img src="photos/{$template_logo}" alt=" " />
			{else}
				<a id="logo_text" href="/">{$template_title|default:'68 Classifieds'}</a>
				<p>{$template_description|default:'Your site description'}</p>
			{/if}
		</div>

That's it.

Well done - it does not seem to be in the templates per norm.
