Changed pg width not working in IE 6

Forums / Questions

Hello Matt,

A while ago I changed my page size to 1020px from 960px. It works great in newer browsers, but not in IE 6.  The resized header appears correctly but the page size and horizontal nav bars remain @ 960px.

David,

IE6 is a nightmare. This issue would take some investigation. Let me know if you want me to have a developer look into it... this type of support for layout/stylesheet customizations incur the hourly professional services rate.

Hello Matt,

FYI incase someone else needs this.

I stumbled across a fix for this IE6 issue. I put the following script in the head of all my layout sheets and it fixes the page width issue on IE6 and so far has not impacted anything else.

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<script src="http://ie7-js.googlecode.com/svn/version/2.0(beta3)/IE7.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<![endif]-->

The code is written by a Dean Edwards. His website and more information is at http://dean.edwards.name/weblog/2008/01/ie7-2/

David,

That's awesome! Thanks for letting me know about it. Who knew there could be a "just fix everything" solution for IE6!
