It has to do with the CSS style maxwidth. IE does not properly render max-width, therefore there is some hack. I am not a coding whiz, but here are some possible solutions: <a href="http://perishablepress.com/press/2007/01/16/maximum-and-minimum-height-and-width-in-internet-explorer/#comment-29907" rel="nofollow">http://perishablepress.com/press/2007/01/16/maximum-and-minimum-height-and-width-in-internet-explorer/#comment-29907</a></p> <p>I've commented out the maxwidth style in style.css for now, but maybe you could fix this bug in your next release.</p> <p>Thanks!<br /> Kirk </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/multiple-problems-with-ie#post-6804 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 20:04:54 +0000 qnp9999 6804@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Forgot to mention, I just upgraded to the newest big feature theme, and Wordpress is also up to date 3.1.3, no changes. </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/multiple-problems-with-ie#post-6803 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 20:03:34 +0000 qnp9999 6803@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>I am having similar issues with IE displaying images on my site. However the images are loading correctly in IE. Then as soon as the page fully loads, the shrink up to about 10px wide, resulting in a very tall squished image, as seen here. <a href="http://www.sandiegohomephotography.com/real-estate-photography-portfolio/" rel="nofollow">http://www.sandiegohomephotography.com/real-estate-photography-portfolio/</a> These pages look fine in all other browsers I've tested except IE. </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/multiple-problems-with-ie#post-6790 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 15:23:07 +0000 laschen 6790@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>I figured it out. I updated to the newest version of Wordpress and it seemed to fix all of the IE issues. Thanks for a great theme.

A bit strange that it's only happening in IE though...well maybe not since IE is the worst browser out there.</p> <p>You can test the <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hyper-cache/">hyper cache plugin</a> to see if it changes (turn it off while you developing the website though). </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/multiple-problems-with-ie#post-6745 Tue, 14 Jun 2011 18:08:10 +0000 laschen 6745@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>I am using Big Feature 1.4.0.4 and I am having numerous issues with its compatibility with IE7.

You can remove it like <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/jquery-custom-fades-arent-working-what-am-i-doing-wrong#post-3451">this</a>. This script resizes too wide images, and you probably go a too wide image that is pushing the sidebar down. You can add this to the bottom of style.css to replace the imageFit script:</p> <p><code>#container img { height: auto; max-width: 100%; width: auto; }</code></p> <p>This can cause some problems with external images, but maybe not in version 1.3.5.2 that you are using. This is the issue I'm working on right now, to make this css not mess up external thumb images in version 1.4. </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/jquery-error-in-ie-causes-sidebar-to-appear-at-bottom#post-4270 Fri, 01 Oct 2010 04:09:38 +0000 kitliz 4270@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>I've been running bigfeature for several months without issue, but I just looked at my site in IE8 and the sidebar is at the bottom left, and text that is usually in my footer is up in the sidebar position. </p> <p><a href="http://diydiva.net" rel="nofollow">http://diydiva.net</a> </p> <p>Here's the error from IE: </p> <p>Webpage error details</p> <p>Message: Object doesn't support this property or method<br /> Line: 17<br /> Char: 9<br /> Code: 0<br /> URI: <a href="http://diydiva.net/wp-content/themes/bigfeature/library/js/jquery.imagefit.js?ver=3.0" rel="nofollow">http://diydiva.net/wp-content/themes/bigfeature/library/js/jquery.imagefit.js?ver=3.0</a></p> <p>All still looks well in FF and Chrome. </p> <p>Oddly, I've viewed the site in IE in the last couple of weeks and it looked fine.

I work on a mac so I don't usually get to test IE 6,7, &amp; 8.</p> <p>LightBox 2 is giving me trouble in multiple areas:</p> <p>1) I have a blog using the PhotoBlog template. In IE6 the images do not resize correctly, and thus get dropped down below the article text. See screenshot:<br /> <a href="http://adrianbardet.com/skitch//IE6-LightBox2-PhotoBlog-20100721-172148.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://adrianbardet.com/skitch//IE6-LightBox2-PhotoBlog-20100721-172148.jpg</a></p> <p>2) In IE 6 ,When using LightBox 2 on a normal page with the default template, the images don't resize well. They appear very "crunchy" looking. See screenshot:<br /> <a href="http://adrianbardet.com/skitch//IE6-Crunchy_Image--LightBox2-1-20100721-173358.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://adrianbardet.com/skitch//IE6-Crunchy_Image--LightBox2-1-20100721-173358.jpg</a></p> <p>3) In IE 8, on a post page the LightBox 2 image does not scale down and thus extends into my default sidebar area (where I use a BF Page Widget). See screenshot:<br /> <a href="http://adrianbardet.com/skitch//IE8_LightBox2-Posts-20100721-173510.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://adrianbardet.com/skitch//IE8_LightBox2-Posts-20100721-173510.jpg</a></p> <p>I do not have access to IE 7 so I can't say what happens there. I am using WP v3.0 and Big Feature v1.3.5.1 and have not upgraded to the most recent version because I am very close to launching the site and did not want anything to break causing more work.</p> <p>Any help would be much appreciated because I am supposed to launch the site tomorrow (7/21).<br /> THANK YOU! </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/slider-does-not-work-in-internet-explorer-but-works-in-firefox#post-3095 Mon, 05 Jul 2010 17:47:44 +0000 spankypod 3095@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Thanks! it works now.</p> <p>Taking out the code did not help, but deactivating all the plugins did-So there is some conflict there.</p> <p>I really appreciate it. </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/slider-does-not-work-in-internet-explorer-but-works-in-firefox#post-3088 Mon, 05 Jul 2010 09:46:49 +0000 vfxdude 3088@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>yep something is messed up in IE8. could be that image resizing script (a problem script that has been fixed in the new version coming soon). You can remove these lines in theme-functions.php (in the library/functions folder) to see if that helps:</p> <p><code>add_action('init', 'bf_imagefit_script');<br /> add_action('wp_footer', 'bf_imagefit');</code></p> <p>I this doesn't change things I would deactivate all plugins and check. And also test with with the unmodified original theme (not from the child theme). </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/slider-does-not-work-in-internet-explorer-but-works-in-firefox#post-3081 Sat, 03 Jul 2010 17:20:22 +0000 spankypod 3081@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Hi Vfxdude,</p> <p>I really like the theme and am starting to put together my blog. However, I'm having trouble with the slider. It works in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, but when testing it on Internet Explorer 8, the slider timing is off and half of the slide will show up, and overlap other slides, etc. </p> <p><a href="http://topbananawebdesign.com/queenannedaytripper/" rel="nofollow">http://topbananawebdesign.com/queenannedaytripper/</a></p> <p>[bfslider height="525" buttons="false" speed="8000" animation="fade"]</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/images-do-not-resize-right-in-ie-and-ff#post-3068 Fri, 02 Jul 2010 11:24:07 +0000 vfxdude 3068@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>I added a script to resize the images called imagefit, but I guess you have disabled that one since there was some issues with it. In the new version that I'm working on now I have modified this script to work better though. For now you can enable the imagefit script again, but remove this (some lines above):</p> <p><code>jQuery("#container").imagefit();</code></p> <p>Then only images in the content area will be resized and it should not cause the reported slowdowns in IE.</p> <p>but..actually you should not depend on any resizing of images inserted into the post though, the right width preset should be chosen when inserting it (wordpress creates many image sizes of every image uploaded based on the media setting sizes). See step 7 <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/bigfeature/2009/07/setting-up-the-theme/">here</a> for how to set image sizes (the content width is now displayed in the theme settings). </p>
