When I mouse-over the AddToAny button in Internet Explorer 7, the whole bottom-half of the page disapears for a split second and the drop-down never appears.
I have found this problem addressed with regards to IE 6 as a theme-issue on Wordpress versions of AddToAny:
http://www.joselatourauthor.com/wp-content/plugins/add-to-any/README.txt
...but the Drupal version still seems to have the bug.
According to the AddToAny Blog, this bug has been fixed in the new version, but I updated to version 6.x-2.3 of the module and I'm still having the problem.

As usual, it works fine in Firefox, Opera, etc... just not in IE.

godspeed2048 commentedUpdate:
Turns out this is only happening on one site.
Probably an issue with the theme I'm using but would love to solve the problem.

micropat commentedHi Conan,
Can you provide a link to the site? Are you using a pre-built theme?
Comment #3
Ether commentedI have the same problems in IE8. Firefox - everything is good.
I'm using Wabi theme.

fletch11 commentedI'm having the same problem in a zen-based sub-theme.

hujia commentedHi,
I tested the addtoAny module and it works pretty well at my desktop within Drupal; So I upload its orginal zip files to my Apache website site to install it and test it there. Strangely, the addtoany module causes the module page to turn blank, showing nothing; and i have to delete it and then the module admin page comes back; i upload the module zip and unzip it again and then again the module page blank out. this is weird, given my smooth testing experience at the desktop and it is always true that when it works at desktop it works on website, and the two sites are equal. Can somebody help me with this? thanks Huj

Comment #7
micropat commentedI tested this on the Wabi theme but am not having any trouble at all in IE6-8. Can you walk me through the steps to reproduce? Thanks!
Comment #8
micropat commented@hujia just making sure, are you referring to /admin/build/modules ? Exact steps to reproduce would also be helpful.
Comment #9
hujia commentedThat is right. it is /admin/build/modules, and what happens is equal to site crush (because you lose everything in admin) and should be prioritized as an issue.
The steps for it are just normal: i upload the originally downloaded addtoany module to the sites/all/modules folder, and then went to /admin/build/modules so as to activate it: this is where the site turn blank. I repeated this several times to make sure this is not an isolate accident. the turn blank problem always occur, and that is the time I have to turn to other share modules...Again, this oddly does not happen when I tried on my pc desktop. thanks, Huj

hujia commentedPS i am using Firefox 3.0 (not IE): but this issue appear not related to browser.
Comment #11
lwiegand commentedI think this thread is dealing with two different issues.
I am having the same issue as described in the original post.
I am using a zen based theme. When I hover over the button, the page jumps up halfway and the addtoany menu does not appear. This happens in IE 6, not FF or Safari.
Comment #12
hujia commentedHello,
For some reason beyond my understanding, I cannot make my addtoany work on my unix website after numerous tries (regardless of the browsers), although it works perfectly well on my desktop. Therefore, I have to switch to ShareThis module. it is a pity and I hope the author of this addtoany module could look into this and have it solved. Thanks! Huj

advseb commentedI'm also experiencing this problem in a page, which got a ZEN based sub theme. Everything works fine, but the site is broken in IE7. I'm pretty sure that this is not directly related to the module, but it is some regression between Drupal/ZEN theme and addtoany CSS code, because I had the same problem while adding the addtoany code directly to the page not using this module.
Update: My problem was also that IE doesn't allow more than 30 CSS files. I had to put them in a single CSS to get it work. I think you can close this issue.
Comment #14
sweatsuit commentedI was having this issue with a Zen sub theme as well. Turns out my problem was that IE will only render the first 30 CSS files added to a page. You can either turn on 'optimize CSS' in drupal, or consolidate some of your CSS files manually.

Comment #15
micropat commentedSo this was not an AddToAny module issue. :-)
The issue is IE's lack of ability to cope with 30+ CSS files (which is an insane number, mind you!).
