Well, I just posted the problem there, we will see what they say. I put it as a reply to my original problem, which was attempting to get the Javascript to work on IE, which we are now past that with the iframe solution. Hopefully they can help us out.

But does the theme vendor need to handle this issue because the specific page re-directs will be handled in the themes CSS or other files, or because native WordPress has no function for this…or both??

@tabrisrp Thanks for getting back to me on this. I did some more searching around, and contacted my website theme creator to see what his thoughts were.

He said this:

The problem is the plugin you are using. It creates a empty list element (li) followed by a new list (ul). internet explorer does not like that.

We cant change that as the plugin is causing this and we cant rewrite the working of the internet explorer.

I have no solution for this.

So the theme folks think it has to do with the combo of (ul) and (li) usage which is causing this little error on IE browsers. I then did some searching around to see what could be done to the HTML/CSS code of the plugin for an alternative to this problem with spaces being added in all Internet Explorer versions (which is 13% of browser usage still and definitely higher than that in my company’s line of work where everyone is still using IE).

I refuse to stop using your plugin and search for another one, because your plugin offers Vcard linking, which is a “big deal” at my office too. (Which by the way, if you added LinkedIn–and maybe even Twitter too–support to this plugin it would be the best contact plugin available for WordPress maybe even worthy of a $price tag or something).

BUT, I have seemed to have found a fix for the problem here https://https://www.webmasterworld.com/forum21/11319.htm”>.
One of those responding says:

I’ve solved the problem. I’ve used this little code: ?
In browsers this appears like a small filled circle, exact the same effect that
<li> has. And it’s valid in HTML 4.01. Yey!
After two days work got all my pages validated, what a nice feeling! This little code was the last thing I needed for a successful validation

Is this something you could incorporate into a future plugin update possibly??

Huh…well, to be honest I have no idea what to do.

I sure hope I am not forced into having to remove the awesome plugin over such a silly problem that only shows up on IE.

Strange ??
