I think this bug was introduced in the last 2 version.
I do not use IE6 so i didnt notice earlier.
Every main page that contains panels appears blank.
Had to abandon Garland untill the issue is fixed.
Every other page appears ok.

buffos commentedI did see that the panel name should not have numbers. Just alphas and underscores.
I will have to try and see if that was the problem when i have an IE6 in my hands.
I wonder was that restriction there in previous versions? If not, then this might be the problem (i guess some dropped css )

merlinofchaos commentedI can't reproduce this problem. With IE6 on my test site, using Garland, I can go thorugh the whole process of viewing and editing panels (mostly) just fine.
Comment #3
dmiric commentedI have the same problem. Noting that is in panels is showing everything else is there.
Comment #4
merlinofchaos commentedThere's got to be something else going on here; I use IE6 all the time in my test site and I can always see panels.
Comment #5
gracearoha commentedI usually only work in FF and so forget to check my new panels view in IE6. Darn!
I see now that my homepage panels view does not show up at all - all the content is missing.
But the panels og homepage view looks great.
I'll investigate further and see if i can see what the difference between the two is...
Comment #6
gracearoha commentedIt seems, for me at least, that it is the 3-column stacked that doesn't work in Garland IE6 for me. That is what my homepage panels view was using. So i switched to the flexible structure (which is what i was using for my og homepage) and now i can see the panels view with all my content on the homepage except that the 3rd column jumps down to the left bottom of the page. :(
Comment #7
gracearoha commentedjust to add, i also tried the two-column stacked panel with the same results. Works fine in FF but not ie6

grunthus commentedHi,
I seem to recall self-closing tags reveals a problem in IE6. The panels module with Garland is generating , which according to this post:
http://drupal.org/node/173795#comment-269149
(relating to img_assist similar problem)
could be replaced with style to workaround IE6. Do later versions of panels use ? I guess I should look.....

grunthus commentedHi,
I seem to recall self-closing
<span />tags reveals a problem in IE6. The panels module with Garland is generating<span class="clear" />, which according to this post:http://drupal.org/node/173795#comment-269149
(relating to img_assist similar problem)
could be replaced with
<span></span>style to workaround IE6. Do later versions of panels use<span></span>? I guess I should look.....Comment #10
grunthus commentedI have fixed this problem on the site that was giving me problems. I found that, although it was panelled pages that were failing the span tag was produced by img_assist module. The current dev version of img_assist replaces the offending span tag with a div tag. If you have panels and are finding this problem, check your img_assist module, look in function theme_img_assist_filter
HTH
Comment #11
gracearoha commentedI am using Drupal 5.2 and just upgraded to the beta 11 version of panels from the beta 9 version because i was having problems with the two-column stacked layout not showing on the homepage of my site in ie6, but looks fine in FF 2. But now i see that i also in the beta 11 version the panels page on my homepage does not show at all in ie6. (Also i am not using image assist)
Comment #12
catchIs this still valid in 2.x-dev?
Comment #13
catchhttp://drupal.org/node/190658 was duplicate.
Comment #14
Julieslv commentedI am tired of bowing down to IE's non complacency. If it were up to me I would exclude all IE users! But since I am not in a position to do so, I have found that IE7.js provided by http://dean.edwards.name/weblog/2008/01/ie7-2/ is so the way to go. no more hacks! Well sort of. I would like to say a BIG GIANT ******THANK YOU**** to the developers on this one. Saved my cute tight ass! Cheers.

sdboyer commentedToo nonspecific, too inactive, and too old to be kept open. Please reopen if this remains an issue.
