Background Nightmare IE!!

  • Ok, Please so I have a decent looking site at https://www.aaapreferredstorage.com that looks fine in Firefox, but there are two little blips in IE. Using CSS viewer, I know one of them is simply the <body> not being recognized as black. I’ve tried all I know how to do, but no success.

    Any help on this would be appreciated.

    Here is what I’ve got:

    body {
    background-color: #000000;
    font-size: 60.5%;
    font-family: ‘Lucida Grande’, Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
    margin: 0 auto;
    padding: 0;
    text-align: center;
    }

    I’ve also got <body bgcolor=”#000000″ onLoad=”show_clock()”> in my header.php file. Fine in Firefox, Safari, etc, but not looking right in IE. Any suggestions?

  • When I look at your website in IE6, I see the black background behind your header/title (AAA), but see a paaale blue background in other places.

    The pale blue suggests to me that there is an attempt to perform a transparency in the code and I would believe that that is your problem as IE6 doesn’t have the proper support for alpha transparencies – especially if applied to backgrounds. The slider, I believe, is what is causing the conflict in your theme.

    Also, as an aside, if you take a peek at your site in IE6, your content column is shifted down.

    ok, I appreciate the response, but I’m not too experienced with wordpress, or transparencies as you’ve explained them – what file, tag(s), or css divs would be the most likely for needing adjusting?
