I'm sure I'm missing something or I did something wrong. In IE I see just a white background and the content all serially positioned top down. What did I miss?

Link would be helpful if not crucial. Please provide more information, it is not possible to guess what the problem might be.

The website (now under construction) is published in test at http://magicbox.defrancesco.info/ I've added on top of the Content a Switch Theme box to allow you to verify the issue.
Thanks!

Ok, NOW I'm startled! Using the Switch Theme Block IT WORKS! Any idea about what can provoke this behaviour?

Possibly just a caching issue, looks like its working ok now.

Well, I disabled all Drupal's chache and cleaned my browser's cache. I tryied from different locations (using terminal server) so I really don't understand the issue. Anyway it's working now... thanks!
By the way, great job these themes!
Cheers

I got that again in Firefox and I just cracked it! the theme has problems with the "Optimize CSS" option of the core performance module.

You should add this info in the installation instructions.

Cheers

I have a similar problem. Genesis Darkmatter theme displays fine in Google Chrome.On the same machine and a different machine IE 7 has the same issues as described above (white & serial position) see (under construction) http://www.community.rivermuse.com/

Hi Phil,

did you disable the CSS optimization and than cleared the cache? That solved my issue.

Hi, yes saw your comments and checked settings. Currently CSS (& Java) apoimization is off and I cleared the cache but still no change.

Thanks

Strange, have you tried clearing manually the chaches?

client or server? I can fire up a chrome browser and get the correct presentation/theme,including any test changes in content on the page. If I fire up IE I see the content changes but only in simple white background/etc.
I used the purge cache option in admin/settings/performance. That said all cache options are currently turned off.

The problem is the well known "more than 31 stylesheets" issue with IE7. There are instructions for a work-around in the Genesis info files and documentation OR you can simply switch on CSS Compression and Aggregation in Performance settings.

In short, your site has more than 31 stylesheets, mainly due to the high number of CSS sheets used by Genesis and Ubercart.

Heres a thread on the issue - http://drupal.org/node/228818
