Hello.

So I used the Zen theme as the starting point for my custom theme, and I have pretty heavily modified it. Everything's working in FF2, but in IE6 the sidebars are displaying an issue. The top-most block in either/both sidebars does not render the border like I specified. And also, the h2 for the block has a background-image that is not displaying. When I scroll down the page a bit, then scroll back up, the border renders, but still no h2. Any other blocks further down the sidebars appear fine.

I'm thinking some slight width discrepancy or perhaps a z-index issue, but I've tried tweaking it around to no avail.

Any help is much appreciated, as this is currently one of the biggest issues keeping me from launching the beta. Thank you.

I haven't used a Zen theme for almost a year, so I'm not sure if this is valid anymore...but see if http://drupal.org/node/110550 jars any ideas. Especially around #14 and #18 may be helpful...but since this is an old issue it may not apply to the Zen of today.

To be honest, I spent a very long time with CSS isssues and IE6 and eventually gave up. Most of my work these days are spent on the Intranet server behind the firewall. I had the power to upgrade everyone from IE6 to IE7...and that's what I did to resolve my issues. The day MS finally drops any support for IE6 will be a good day in my book.

Thanks Bryan, but I couldn't get that to work...

I have determined (I think) that the problem is not with the "main" or "squeeze" divs, but rather with the "container" div. I know this because I temporarily modified my page.tpl.php file and got rid of both "main" and "squeeze" which inherently caused the left and right sidebars to float left, and butt up against each other... But the border/h2 problem was still apparent.

However, when I removed the "container" div, all the widths got messed up of course, but I could see borders/h2's on all blocks.

Still trying to figure this out. Thank you though Bryan. :-)
