Animated Striped Bar Appears Only in IE

  • I have an animated, striped bar appearing in my navigation div (or some other div that’s overflowing to it), but it only shows in IE6! I’ve pored through the code and can’t for the life of me pinpoint the part that would be making an animated, striped bar appear in IE6, but not IE7 et al. I can’t even find this bar image in my wordpress /images folder OR my theme’s /images folder.

    Here’s a picture of the striped bar: here.

    Here’s my header.php code: here.

    Here’s my style.css code: here.

    Hoping someone can shed some light on this issue! Thank you.

  • Hi

    That is a progress bar image. Perhaps it is coming from a plugin? That would explain why you are not seeing it in your own code.

    Try disabling your plugins one by one and check again to see if the image is gone. Not everyone optimizes for IE6 any longer, even though many people still use it.

    Thanks for the reply, stvwlf.

    I don’t know why it didn’t come to me, but I’ll definitely try that. Now that you mention it, I believe I know of one plugin off the top of my head that gives an option to use that as a loading image.

    Thanks for kicking my brain into gear. ??

    Yup, that was it. The GDStar Rating plugin uses bar.gif as a loading bar while a post is rating. My theme created a <div class="bar"> for my navigation bar, and I guess IE6 somehow pulled the bar.gif image!

    Strange, but thanks a ton!
