I read somewhere here that there were updated versions for this template after the release of ie8.
I re-downloaded the version here and it’s still saying it’s v1.0 (for j1.5).
Is there any updated version with the ie8 bug fixes ?
I am getting the following error in ie8 only:
Webpage error details
User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; InfoPath.2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Message: HTML Parsing Error: Unable to modify the parent container element before the child element is closed (KB927917)

Any help appreciated.

as far as my knowledge goes..i still dont think there is an update for templates supporting IE8. hence usually what is done is in the index.php file..write a line to make the page open up in IE8 compatibility mode…

I have found a solution here: http://www.joomlart.com/forums/showpost.php?p=117896&postcount=3
There is a DIV tag in the wrong place and it’s making everything crash for ie8
Before I mark as fixed, i’ll test it some more. But so far so good.
thanks.

hi…like i said try adding the IE8 Compatibliity view just after <head> tag and before </head>
<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=7″ />
This will open the site even in IE8 as ie7 and that should solve the problem…

I have had that all along, and it did fix things.
I have spent a fair bit of time removing modules and editing a lot of content to make the4 page valid html & css.
So far so good, it could be that there were conflicting issues.
Will test some more and see.
Still getting the above mentioned error.

Here is the usual IE8 answer
go to your index php file and find the following
<!–>
<style type=”text/css”>
.clearfix {display: inline-block;}
</style>
<!–>
and change to:
<!–>
<style type=”text/css”>
.clearfix {display: block;}
</style>
<!–>
OR
It is a compatibility issue
You need to paste code into the first line of the <head> of your index.php file
<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=7″ />
