My website is not displaying in IE - Developers

Hello Guys, My website is not displaying in IE and because I never use IE I have never noticed this. I was just emailed by a friend saying I can't view your website! I need a quick fix or solution for this problem to be fixed with-thin a few hours when I expect a boom in visits. All help well be extremely appreciated!

Have you been able to replicate this issue on your end? It might just be him.

Thanks for your reply Jelly. I have replicated on 5 different machines now, two guys have now told us, and on 3 machines at home.

It works fine on IE9

Can you even access the site at all, is it returning a server error, just not responding, layout broken?

Layout is broken, I cant see anything inside the main table (where the whole website exists), all I see is the bg gradient. Thanks for your feedback Zeb Brown :)

What version of IE is this being tested on? I notice a few issues running IE9 that can be easily fixed by adding a doctype before your <html> element; one like this should work just fine. [code] <!doctype html> [/code]

I will add this piece of code you have given me and test it oon my index page. Thanks for your reply ill give feedback as soon as iv'e tested it. CMCD [editline]4th August 2011[/editline] Hello, Iv'e added the priece of code you gave me thanks! But the problem is still persisting so I removed it any other ideas? [editline]4th August 2011[/editline] <!doctype html> Worked but it only displays down to the bottom of the menu bar.

Some people really just need to download chrome/firefox Lazy, lazy people

Hehe I agree.. But nothing I can do to help that! Im going to try include the website in a php page and see if that fixes it :)

You should specify the minimum version of IE your site should work with in your headers: [code] <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9" /> [/code] That's an example. If it works with IE8, change it appropriately.

The website works in IE8, which is the latest version of IE for Windows XP. If anyone is using less than Windows XP then they really shouldn't be using computers

Decided to re-build the site, the code was getting messy anyways. Thanks for all your help.

For future referance you can use [url=http://css-tricks.com/132-how-to-create-an-ie-only-stylesheet/]IE only stylesheets [/url] to make it a lot easier to make it work for IE but without removing all the features decent browsers support.
