CSS menu issue with IE [SOLVED]

Post by nick2000 »

Hi all,

I've created a site using a theme from the cmsms themes site (BrightSide). The template has a horizontal menu and a left subnavigation menu.
It looks fine with Firefox and Safari, but on IE, menu tabs are displayed in the wrong position (tested with IE8). Several elements on page seem to overlap.

Here is a preview: http://www.biodanza.brescia.it/cmsms/
And here is the stylesheet: http://pastebin.com/fVnK92vH
My Environment: CMSMS 1.9.4.1, PHP 5.3.3

I've tried some IE hacks, but with no luck... For example the famigerate "position:relative" fix something in IE but breaks the menu on FF.
I'm not a CSS guru: could anyone help me to determine the cause of this issue?

thanks in advance
Nicola

Might want to clean up/fix/validate your HTML before looking into getting IE8 to work, note the DOCTYPE etc. in the middle of page...

Thanks a lot.
A plugin for TinyMCE was active (fullpage) and it wasn't supposed to be.

The 'fullpage' plugin in TinyMCE editor was adding the headers in the middle of the page.
Disabling it, solved the issue.
