Just wondering really if anyone else is having issues with this. I have vb4.0.6, the newest version and it appears that alot of my forum members are having compatability issues between using Firefox and IE. I use firefox on my lap top at home, but when im at work i have to use IE and i see exactly what they are talking about.

It appears that the boards are viewed exactly as they should be from firefox but everything appears really messed up coding wise when viewed in IE over firefox.

someones help would be great appreciated. Wondering if there is a compatability patch or something that is out or will be coming out or if anyone else is having any of the same issues.

thanks in advance

Looks to me as the graphics is in the wrong spot on your custom theme. Or you just have your urls pointing wrong. Have you checked in vb to make sure you are pointing to the correct paths ? Are the images there ? By chance is this all in additional.css ?

The problem isn't IE, it's that you have missing images... by default Firefox doesn't show a placeholder for a missing image where as IE and Chrome do...

The files that are missing are:

Try and figure out what image it's supposed to be... worst case upload a 1 pixel x 1 pixel blank PNG or sometime with that filename and it will look right, but the right thing to do is to remove the image from the template though.

You also have a 'double url' entered into the icon legend incorrectly
