Colourise 6.x-3.1 does not work at all in IE7.

(see attachment below: colourise-ie7.png)

This is not really surprising, since IE can't even seem to manage to wipe it's own posterior without help.

Pardon my editorialising but...
IE = Bane of my existence!

Same problem in IE 8. Please fix, I really like this theme!

Edit: This turned out to be the number of CSS files for me. This template uses a lot of CSS files, so the IE CSS file limit showed up under this template and not others I was testing with.

It works on MSIE6 and MSIE8 with my site.

However I think I know the problem you're all facing: there's a known limitation in all Internet Explorer versions regarding the maximum number of CSS files for one page. Fortunately there's a simple solution :)

To address this problem, go to admin/settings/performance and scroll to "Bandwidth optimizations". Make sure you enable "Optimize CSS files" as well as "Optimize JavaScript files".

The only draw-back of this approach is that it interferes with theme development: the CSS and JavaScript files are cached now, so you'll have to regenerate cached versions each time you want to perform an update: this is again done in admin/settings/performance where you have to hit the "clear cache" button at the bottom of the page whenever you want to display a theme update. Or you enable the devel module and click "clear cache" from the devel block whenever you want to check a theme tweak you made.

Hope this helps!

If your problem is fixed with this fix, please consider posting a reply so this issue can be closed.
