Anyone have an idea of why in IE I lost my Navtab / Css for the navtab and headerlinks area. I have racked my brain trying to figure this out, browsed all the threads trying various fixes for other issues that might help me here, and I'm still at a loss.

If you could offer insight as to what might be causing this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

We're running vb 4.0.6, the layout is stock with just color changes (No custom templates).

Thank you.

PS, it looks fine when viewed in FireFox. I'm using IE8 if that matters.

I see a few things wrong but not sure if they are related..

your .tcat from the ARCADE.css is not reading .. not sure why..
check your ARCADE.css to make sure it's there.
also there is a extra </div> in the ARCADE template at the bottom
+ the arcade does not call the right template for vb4
so I would replace the ARCADE template with

{vb:stylevar htmldoctype}
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="{vb:stylevar textdirection}" lang="{vb:stylevar languagecode}" id="vbulletin_html">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1" />
<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" />
<title>{vb:raw ibprotitle}</title>
{vb:raw headinclude}
{vb:raw headinclude_bottom}
</head>
<body>
{vb:raw header}
{vb:raw navbar}

{vb:raw arcadeheader}
{vb:raw maincontent}


{vb:raw footer}
</div>
</body>
</html>

I would also
open /arcade/functions/functions.php

search for // we are on vB 4 or later WHOHOOO

Just under it on line 1380 you'll see


$navbits = $output_array['NAV'];

move it under


$navbits = construct_navbits(array('' => $ibforums->lang['page_title']));


that just for starters..
and see what if anything it fixes

oh you should also do this fix as well

I tried all those things earlier, and while they cleaned up the overall look, the didn't fix that navbar problem. I did just import the product again, and overwrote the product, and that fixed it. There must be something in the database, or maybe even the templates that did not get fully updated the first time I upgraded after going to vb4.

Thanks Hippy for the tips. With your changes, and the new import, I think it looks good now. Greatly appreciated.
