Administration menu is breaking drupal on Internet Explorer (on XP and Vista). I have both tried 3.0-alpha1 and 6.x-1.5. My CSS and theme are completely ignored (it looks) when I render the page with Internet Explorer. Firefox and Safari (both on Windows and Apple) work fine.

Strange thing is that the menu does not work when I am logged in as Administrator. A user with limited menu access works fine on Windows. I have tried to assign all permissions to a test user; that user has a perfectly working administration menu although this user does not get all menu items.

I have tried both my own theme and Garland. The issue is with both themes.

Does anyone have any clue?

Found it. This is not a drupal or menu bug. IE cannot handle more than 32 css files in the section. Turning on css cashing fixed the issue.

So the tip is to develop CSS in a normal browser that is using internet standards. Turn on css cashing before you want to see the page in a faulty browser like IE.
