problem with CSS in IE

[term]

I have problem with CSS in IE. After click on link in menu, the page is render without CSS. After I reload page(F5) is all OK. In Opera or Firefox this work fine. Testsite is redwire.ic.cz

Very strange.  I just tried it on IE here and it worked fine.  Anyone else seeing this?

happens here all the time in IE

Works as advertised in firefox

Some versions of IE maybe don`t fully compatible with generating CSS over PHP on server with mod_gzip in Apache.

I have the same problem with my site.

I only got the problem with IE in Windows XP SP2
Unfortunately this is the browser most people are using
When you load the page it looks fine, but after you click on the menu, it is broken. If you press F5 everything looks normal back.

I really think you should try to fix this before you release v1.0

It there any quick fix at the moment?

Update :

Installed a clean copy of CMS Made Simple on 2 different hosting servers (both linux).
On one the pages will load correctly in IE. On the other one they wont.

Do you need more information from the servers (like phpinfo?).

Update 2:

Quick fix found!

Put this in .htaccess

Code: Select all

mod_gzip_on No

Update 3 :

Cleaner fix (if you want mod_gzip to be enabled). Put in .htaccess

Code: Select all

mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^text/css

Very nice.  I guess that should go in the FAQ.  I really don't want to force a .htaccess on people if possible.  Maybe it's necessary...

Maybe we could add FAQ or Troubleshooting chapter to the User Handbook?

This particular problem is not a CMSMS bug and will probably be important for everyone using the software and mod-gzip. That is until MS corrects the problem in IE. So IMHO it fits perfectly into Troubleshooting category.

I have the same problem described by petert. IE shows the page without CSS. I don't have an own server for my webspace. Do I have the same opportunity to modify the .htaccess ?

I am not really familiar with that stuff, so can anyone explain for a dummy how to change the .htaccess

Thanks in advance.
