Hi there,

just finished some CSS touch-ups and now found that my page no longer loads when using Internet Explorer!!:scratch

The page loads without problems in Mozilla.

Could somebody please try loading my page in IE and let me know if it shows? I tried 2 different machines. This is the address: www.jlayesphotography.com (http://www.jlayesphotography.com)

Category pages show (like www.jlayesphotography.com/Asia (http://www.jlayesphotography.com/Asia)), but not the homepage.

Has it to do with the background images?

Any help is much appreciated here. THanks, as always.

someone with a pc and i.e. will help you i'm sure.

wanted to report that the page shows up fine in safari, firefox, and flock browsers.

imo, the keywords overlaying the image is a bit distracting...you might consider suppressing keywords display on your homepage.

Your site loads up just fine in IE and Firefox and looks essentially the same. I don't know if you have changed anything since you tried it, but it seems to be fine at the moment.

joachimHi - it shows up in IE6 but there is a large black space (almost a whole page worth) between your header logo & your bio & galleries further down - so something isn't right. I have looked at it in Firefox & it all looks ok - so it must be an IE thing.

Hope this helps

When I view your page in Firefox, it looks fine. But when I view your site using Internet Explorer, all I see is the header. The rest of the page is black.

joachimThis CSS selector in your cobranding is the culprit:
.homepage #BKGimages {
position:relative;
min-height:92%;
_height:92%;
}

You made the BKGimages (between logo and nav-bar) 92% of your body's height (_height: 92%)! This messes up your page.
Remove the _height property:
.homepage #BKGimages {
position:relative;
min-height:92%;
}

This'll fix it.
(BTW: removing this selector all together works fine too!)
