Hey, I searched around, but couldn't find the problem I'm looking for. I have a site at http://www.tonelab.net. I've only had it up for a few days, and so far I've been able to solve problems pretty effeciently, but this one baffels me.

When you go to edit your profile, or track a user, the tabs dissapear (only in IE - works fine in Firefox). If you scroll them out of veiw, then back up, they reapear until you mouse over them. Also, if you right click where one is supposed to be, one or two of them will temporarily appear. When you mouse over the area where one is supposed to be, the hand apears, and you can click as usual, but they links themselves aren't visible.

I disabled all but the core modules, and all but nav and loign blocks to try to trouble shoot. I also replaced all the modules, includes, and the xtemplate engine (which my theme uses) with fresh downloaded copys (since I have modified some of them).

Even completely stripped down, I can't seem to figure it out. It has to be something in the template, because it works fine with bluemarine. I just can't seem to pinpoint it.

Any help would be great.

I can't help you with anything specific but it sounds like a CSS problem. FF is more compliant than IE so things that work in FF sometimes break in IE.

Here a few suggestions:
Turn off your Primary and Secondary links or delete them from your template.
check your divs
check for any conflicting CSS classes or ids
validate your site with html and css validators (find on google)

These sort of problems can drive you crazy. Sometimes it is easier to debug by printing your template, source and CSS out on paper.

Good Luck.

Apparently, the problem was specifying a background color for #main.

Just took it out of the css, and it works fine.

Thanks.
