Coding; IE vs FireFox problem!

    My WP is located here: https://www.these-words.org/wp/

    I use both IE/Firefox when I design to make sure they show up correctly in both. I just added the coding for the calendar plugin I have and it causes the sidebar to move down when viewed in IE, however when viewing the site in Firefox the site obviously looks as it should.

    I am fairly new with coding WP etc, so I’m not exactly sure how to go about fixing this so it looks how it does in Firefox in IE – any help would be appreciated!

  • It is a css-problem.

    The original-theme seems to work.

    Did you change anything in the theme-subs?

    I don’t believe so. Only thing I have changed anywhere in the sidebar file are the headings and then just adding my own content under the headings…hmm I’ll go back and find the original file and see if I might have deleted something.

    It was showing up correctly in IE before I added in the <? if (function_exists(‘do_calendar’)) { do_calendar(); } ?> coding for the calendar. The coding that was previously there was: <?php wp_list_cats(‘sort_column=name&optioncount=1&title_li=&hierarchical=1&feed=RSS&feed_image=’.get_bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’).’/images/icons/feed-icon-10×10.gif’); ?>

    I just simply replaced the coding and thats all that was changed.

    I am thinking that maybe it has something to do with the width of the calendar. It seems that its wider than the heading (where is says Life Events), where as in Firefox the widths are the same?

    The calendar IS too wide, and it has to do with the way IE handles margins and paddinng and such. Just reduce the width of your content and increase the width of your sidebar…

    Thanks for the help Ladydelaluna! I was able to fix the problem in the css coding after I found the section for the content/sidebar and also changed the width on the calendar! ??
